A rare high-quality office in a Georgian building in Bath city centre has come onto the market.
The 1,340 sq ft office at Grade I listed 27 Gay Street is one of only a handful of prime central offices likely to become available this year, offering a business the chance to take space in a showpiece building with a sought-after BA1 postcode.
The accommodation is across the building’s ground floor and garden level and includes a kitchenette, its own toilets and shower, and a private rear walled garden with gated access from Miles’s Buildings, which could be used for off-street bicycle parking.
Bath-based HPH, which owns and manages a large portfolio of business property across the city, carried out an ambitious refurbishment of the building two years ago, making it a sustainable and efficient office location.
Managing director Lindsay Holdoway said “Bath is a unique place to do business. Not only does the city have a rich and dynamic business community but its world-famous architecture and heritage gives an exclusivity to those companies based here.
“Unfortunately, navigating Bath’s famous architecture and heritage can create issues for some businesses but at HPH we have the experience in both property management and development to make a Georgian building work for a 21st century business.
“Our portfolio is proof that with the right investment listed buildings, like 27 Gay Street, can fulfil modern business requirements.”
Bath chartered surveying firm Derek Walker has been appointed by HPH as letting agent.
Partner Hugh Warren said: “We used to let offices in and around Gay Street on a regular basis, but availability in recent years has been significantly curtailed. This is a particularly good suite in a very fine building.”
