Street level sitting room and kitchen with dining room/study below. Three upper floors housing a double bedroom on each level plus bathroom and W.C. Small rear courtyard with gated rear access. Plenty of fireplaces, floorboards and sash windows. Tenanted until July 2016 but available as a going concern beforehand or no chain thereafter. A rare asset in such a central location. Sole Agents.

AGENTS NOTES The property is currently a licensed three bedroom HMO (license ref 13/04120/HMOADD) returning £1200pcm and let until July 2016. Given proximity to the city and the even distribution of bedroom size, it is no surprise that this property has been extremely popular with tenants and we are aware the next door property is let for considerably more (£1500pcm). Alternatively, the house is, in our opinion, ideal for adapting into holiday let accommodation / AirBnB.
Bath Spa railway station (London mainline) is within sight of the property just 800yds across the river
Saxon settlement in this area of Bath is indicated by the names of the two parishes of Widcombe and Lyncombe, which derive from the old Celtic words for "valley" and "water". Widcombe is the Wide Valley (or perhaps Withy Valley) and Lyncombe is the Vale of the Lynbrook (although the local parlance is Watery Bottom). Haddon supplies an alternative translation for Lyncombe as "the valley of the torrent" and King Edgar's city charter records the area as "Cliftune".
Our client informs us of works that had been undertaken at the property during their period of ownership including: "the basement room having been fully tanked, re- plastered and decorated to make it a usable dry room. The ground floor having had a damp proof course installed and redecorated. The front outside of the property was decorated (required scaffolding) the roof having been checked at the same time and lead repaired to ensure water tight, the drainage from the roof has been fully serviced and flushed through to ensure efficient storm drainaway."
