2 bed Flat For Sale £435,000
A spacious ground floor maisonette arranged over the ground floor and first floor forming part of this beautiful Victorian building.
The property has its own private entrance which was the original main entrance to the building.
Once inside there is a tiled vestibule with floor to ceiling built in storage cupboards. Continue through from the vestibule and you enter into the original entrance hall and stairwell. The current owners have created under stair storage drawers maximising the useable space available.
From the hallway, the first room on the right is the living room which features beautiful ornate ceiling cornice, picture rails and a stunning bay window with stripped back frames and working shutters. The period fireplace and dark colour scheme used on the wall looks great against the rich wood tones and the tiger eye sisal carpet.
Across the hallway is the master bedroom has an elevated outlook over the beautiful rear garden. The room features twin sash windows which have been stripped back along with the deep set skirting boards and picture rails. The room provides ample space for a king size bed and large bedroom furniture.
The stairwell features a vaulted ceiling with skylight which floods the stairs with natural light. At the top of the stairs is the second double bedroom. The room features a sash window and an outlook across the surrounding area and down onto the garden below.
Head down the stairs and to the back of the hallway and you reach the bathroom. Complete with a bath and shower over, mosaic tiling and a large sash window, the room is spacious and has a large laundry cupboard which houses the washing machine and is shelved out for storage.
Several stairs lead down to the kitchen diner at the back of the flat. Kitchen units are arranged down both walls and there is a integrated gas hob with electric oven, built in dishwasher and space for a fridge/freezer. The kitchen has a large sash window with a pretty outlook onto the garden below. There is space for a 4 person table and chairs which is ideal for hosting.
Externally, the communal back garden has apple and pear trees and gets lots of sunshine in the summer months. At the front, the property is set back from the road and has smart wrought iron fencing set onto the front perimeter wall.
This fantastic flat has a great layout and has retained all of the best features of the original house. It’s just a short walk down on Gloucester Road where all of the great independent shops restaurants and cafes are located and its in a great location for getting about. Redland Train station is just across the road and this line links to Temple Meads and Clifton Down.

We have loved living in our home for the last few years. The original period features and high ceilings instantly add a sense of grandeur. We’ve put a lot of thought and effort in, by adding additional storage spaces, new sisal carpets throughout, Victorian-style tiles in the vestibule, replastered the walls and painted with Farrow & Ball throughout.
This is a maisonette, but our friends and family have often said it feels more like a house - and we agree, as the home is set over three levels which include the original staircases. We appreciate the way that light pours in from the giant bay windows, emphasising how spacious and airy the home feels. All of our plants thrive as they soak in the sun!
The mature garden is a wonderful natural space lowered behind the house, with fruit trees such as apples and pears, and a rockery surrounding a green space where we’ve enjoyed summer barbecues.
We’ve loved being so close to the local Gloucester Road amenities - there are countless cafes, restaurant and independent shops nearby for taking family and friends around when they visit.
