A seven-bedroom townhouse on Bath’s Royal Crescent, one of Britain’s most recognisable Georgian addresses, is currently under offer after coming to market with Savills for £4.25 million.
Number 6 Royal Crescent forms part of the city’s famous Grade I listed crescent, built between 1767 and 1774 by John Wood the Younger. Comprising just 30 terraced houses, the crescent remains one of the defining architectural set pieces of Bath and a landmark of Georgian urban design.
Set in the Somerset landscape, Bath has long been admired for its distinctive architectural unity. Much of the city is built from the honey-coloured limestone that gives its streets, terraces and public buildings their characteristic warmth. From its Roman baths and Georgian squares to nearby Prior Park and the surrounding green hills, the city has a rare sense of preservation and place.
The Royal Crescent is among Bath’s most iconic addresses. Its sweeping neoclassical façade, elevated position and outlook across the Crescent lawn have made it one of the most photographed residential streets in the country.
Number 6 extends to approximately 6,736 sq ft / 626 sq m and is arranged over five principal floors, with additional vaults and a separate garage to the rear. The house retains the scale and architectural character associated with a grand Georgian crescent residence, including generous ceiling heights, sash windows, classical proportions and well-preserved period detailing.
The ground floor includes a central entrance hall, a formal sitting room to the front and a dining room to the rear. A kitchen sits beyond, adjoining a light-filled orangery with direct access to the garden, alongside a pantry and cloakroom.
The first floor is arranged around a full-width drawing room overlooking the Crescent lawns, with exceptional ceiling height and the proportions expected of a piano nobile. This level also includes a principal bedroom with an adjacent bathroom.
The second floor provides two further substantial bedrooms, including a bedroom suite with en suite bathroom, while the third floor offers four additional bedrooms and bathrooms. The lower ground floor adds a cinema room, snooker room, boot room, utility area, WC and storage, with vaults extending beneath the pavement.
To the front, the house looks onto the communal Royal Crescent lawn, one of Bath’s most recognisable green spaces. To the rear, there is a private courtyard garden and separate garage access from Upper Church Street.
Bath Spa station provides direct rail services to London Paddington in around 1 hour 20 minutes, while Bristol Airport is approximately 20 miles away. The city also offers a rich cultural setting, with museums, galleries, independent shops, restaurants and historic sites all within easy reach.
