The property itself, located in Bath, two spacious bedrooms, a dining area, one bathroom and a study. Each room is decorated in a cosy, bohemian aesthetic, while the walls of are filled to the brim with prints and paintings.

The historical authenticity of the space hasn’t been lost due to recent improvements, however, with lots of the furniture decorating the rooms dating back to the early 19th century, around the time Austen would have lived in the property. The town of Bath itself is also the location for two of Austen’s most popular novels, Northanger Abbey and Persuasion.
