About
Situated in the heart of Bath, 16 Marlborough Buildings sits in one of the city’s most desirable positions, west of the world-famous Royal Crescent.
The address is well renowned for its Georgian architecture and proximity to excellent amenities.
This elegant building, which has been divided sympathetically into 5 apartments benefits from having beautifully presented communal areas and a well-maintained management company.
Apartment 4 is the top floor apartment and accessed by communal areas via a gradual helical staircase.

Within the apartment there are three well-proportioned double bedrooms, a spacious bathroom and separate cloakroom, and good size sitting room.
