An exquisite ground floor apartment with a private terrace and garage, in a prime city centre location.
The imposing Queenswood House was carefully converted in 1997 from the former Salisbury Infirmary into 10 apartments, by established Bath based developers Future Heritage. This impressive red-brick period building had great care taken during its conversion, to retain the stature of the architecture. Apartment 3 is located on the ground floor of the Riverside Wing, overlooking the communal garden and the River Avon beyond.
The communal entrance hall is attractively decorated and well maintained, with a telecom entry system for visitors. The front door is accessed via an enclosed entrance porch in the communal area, opening into a wide and welcoming hallway within the property. Within the hallway are two large storage cupboards, both of which are fitted with lighting for ease of use. Throughout the apartment are attractive high ceilings and large sash windows, providing an abundance of natural light and creating an airiness to the home. The sitting room is a very good size and well-arranged, with a feature inset gas fireplace and appealing floor to ceiling bookshelves on the north wall. A large open archway leads through to the generous dining room, the original doors that formerly separated the two rooms are currently in storage, and can easily replaced to revert the reception areas back to the original layout. Also accessed through the sitting room is a private study, fitted with a good range of cupboards, shelves and a desk, it is also thought that if required the space could easily converted for use as a single bedroom. The modern kitchen is well equipped, with integral oven, dishwasher, freestanding fridge freezer and a double floor to ceiling pantry.
