The seller said: “Number 6 is the largest apartment in Bailgate Court which I have enjoyed since its completion. It is the most beautiful place, exquisitely fitted and with incredible views of both the castle and the cathedral; it almost feels as if you can touch them from the roof terrace.”

They added: “The property is very quiet, even when you’re on the roof terrace, although you can feel the buzz and bustle of Castle Square; it’s a great place to enjoy the Christmas market.

“We are just steps away from Steep Hill so it is a superb location, and it is quite a sociable community with the shared lawned garden with benches at the front overlooking the city and cliff in the distance.”
