1 bed Flat For Sale £350,000
A beautiful, light and bright loft style apartment set within this former Granary in the city centre. Built in 1869 this Grade II listed building is considered to be the best preserved example of the Bristol Byzantine style, with its distinctive exterior in Cattybrook brick with black, white and limestone dressings.
This top floor apartment was formed as part of the 2002 conversion and manages to retain the industrial style and character of the original building. The property is accessed via both a lift and staircase and has been cleverly created within the roof space. The front door opens into an entrance hallway with a large walk-in storage cupboard and a living space directly beyond. Double doors enable an open connection and a stripped wood floor runs throughout. The ceiling height dramatically rises with exposed timber rafters displaying the original structure. Low level concrete topped cabinets run along one wall, providing useful storage to help enable a minimalist look. Stairs lead up to a kitchen/diner on the mezzanine level; the kitchen is fitted with a range of contemporary units with a range of integrated appliances including an induction hob. The dining area has been skillfully designed with built-in bench seating either side of a glass table which sits under two large Velux windows which provide rooftop views.
On the lower level is a double bedroom with dual aspect windows, a bespoke built-in wardrobe and shelving. There is an en-suite with corner shower, wall hung basin and a w/c with concealed cistern. An elegant bathroom is accessed off the main hallway and has a freestanding bath, w/c and basin which completes the property.
This is an exceptional apartment which fuses stripped back architectural details with simple, contemporary design. Located just off historic Queen Square this property sits in a central position between the Harbourside and the Old City. Within the central residents parking zone.
Vendor's comments
"Living in The Granary combines the great pleasures of the building itself as well as it’s fantastic location.
The plentiful and striking original features have made a stylish decor easily achievable with the building doing all the hard work. The apartment has a hugely spacious and open feel whilst also achieving intimacy, comfort and convenience via the mezzanine layout. Sitting at the raised tabletop upstairs and talking guests through the history of the building (from Granary, to nightclub) and it’s architectural significance has added to what has proven an incredibly enjoyable hosting experience. Original beams and the brickwork on the battlements outside dominate the eye-line for laid back and cosy evenings in the living room downstairs.
The location is a joy. Cultural landmarks like the Old Vic, Arnolfini, M Shed and Watershed are just moments away and it’s become a foodie’s paradise with half a dozen Michelin guide featured restaurants within short walking distance (plus plenty more and growing rapidly in line with the Bristol food scene explosion). Whether it’s the continental feeling evenings on Queen Square, the odd note of Jazz drifting through the windows from the Old Duke pub, or the bells of St. Mary Redcliffe church chiming on a Sunday morning, the area offers huge contentment and satisfaction.
Put simply, we have absolutely loved living at The Granary"
