    About this property

    • An historic Grade II* Listed townhouse with versatile five storey accommodation fronting Sion Hill and the western edge of Christchurch Green. Built circa 1786 this attractive double-fronted home forms part of this attractive Georgian terrace bordering the Avon Gorge and overlooking the Clifton Suspension Bridge and the historic Observatory.

      The generous entrance hall provides an immediate sense of space with wood flooring running underfoot and an array of period features on display, including an attractive fireplace and detailed cornicing. An opening leads in to the bay-fronted sitting room with a further fireplace, in-built storage in the alcoves, detailed cornicing and picture rails. The dual-aspect kitchen/dining/breakfast room enjoys plenty of natural light. There is a comprehensive range of luxury wall and base units with granite composite worksurfaces and a subtle peninsula provides a neat divide between the kitchen/dining area. There is ample space for sizeable dining table and the breakfast room enjoys a sunny aspect with views over the garden.

      The first floor drawing room is dual-aspect and spans the full depth of the property. There are a number of period features on display including an open fireplace, shelving/storage in the alcoves and large sash windows. Completing this level are two guest bedrooms, one is currently used as a gym, and a shower room.

      The principal bedroom suite spans most of the second floor and includes a dressing area with ample in-built storage, two large sash windows at the rear and a beautifully appointed en suite bathroom with roll-top bath, walk-in shower and underfloor heating. On the opposing side of the hall is a generous guest bedroom with en suite shower room. The top floor includes two bedrooms, both with en-suites and a generous study with large boiler cupboard which also houses the cylinder.

      The lower ground floor is currently connected to the main house but offers prospects for self-contained accommodation, if required. There are two reception rooms, currently used as a games room and sitting room, generous laundry room, sauna room and separate shower room. The family room includes double doors opening out to the enclosed rear garden.

      The private and fully enclosed walled garden enjoys a southerly orientation with an array of shrubs and cleverly planted trees, providing plenty of privacy. There are a number of seating areas including a terrace accessed via the breakfast room at the rear of the kitchen. In addition, the property benefits from a generous garage and off road parking accessed from Westfield Place.
