Description

Perfectly positioned in the heart of St. Andrews, this handsome Victorian residence enjoys a peaceful residential setting just a short stroll from the vibrant Gloucester Road. The area is famed for its independent cafés, artisan bakeries, and boutique shops, combining local charm with the convenience of city living.

The property is superbly placed for families, with The Dolphin School (0.2 miles), Fairlawn Primary (0.3 miles) and Cotham Gardens Primary (0.4 miles) close by, alongside leading secondaries including Montpelier High School (0.2 miles), Redland Green (0.6 miles) and Cotham School (0.7 miles), while prestigious independents such as Bristol Grammar School (1.0 mile), Clifton High School (1.4 miles) and Clifton College (1.4 miles) are all within easy reach.

St. Andrews Park is moments away, offering generous green space and a strong community feel. Excellent local schools, proximity to Bristol city centre, and easy access to transport links all contribute to the
area’s popularity among families and professionals alike.

This striking period home has been comprehensively renovated by the current owners since 2020, including full rewiring, new plumbing throughout, and a host of bespoke interior finishes. Every detail has been carefully considered to retain the character of the original building while introducing high-spec, contemporary comfort across four thoughtfully designed floors.

Original period features such as ornate ceiling roses, decorative cornicing and restored timber flooring have been lovingly and beautifully reinstated, sitting alongside modern upgrades including 'Sonos' audio, 'Velux' electric skylights, and 'Google Nest' smart thermostats. A remarkable amount of natural light floods the home, thanks to a clever use of skylights and floor-to-ceiling glazing. All radiators have been upgraded to beautiful, exposed column models throughout the house.

The hallway is a warm and welcoming space, entered via a vestibule with an original stained-glass door. The entrance provides a useful space to hang coats and kick off muddy boots, and the staircase is fitted with a beautiful runner, setting the tone for the rest of the home.

The kitchen and dining area is a standout space, featuring bespoke handmade cabinetry by 'The Lovely Kitchen Company', fitted with 'Perrin & Rowe' taps and copper sinks, alongside a 'Neff' induction hob, and two combi ovens. Marble and oak worktops provide texture and warmth, while a large walk-in pantry adds practicality. A log burner brings additional charm to the space, creating a cosy and welcoming atmosphere. Oak bi-folding doors with integrated blinds open onto a yellow balaua deck and landscaped garden. To the front, the elegant sitting room offers more beautifully restored original cornicing, an 'Arada Ecoburn 5' wood-burning stove with solid wood surround, and handcrafted cabinetry.

Restored original pitch pine floorboards continue through the hallway and staircase, leading to three bedrooms on the first floor. A beautifully appointed shower room features marble tiles from 'Mandarin Stone', a teak vanity, 'Lusso Stone' fixtures, and a 'Western Red Cedar' cabinet with integrated heated mirror. The second-floor bathroom is fully tiled in a wet room style with built-in cabinetry and features a ‘Lusso Stone’ bath and oversized walk-in shower cubicle.
The front bedroom is of generous proportions and is currently used as a home office. The space includes a period fireplace and bespoke cabinetry with shelving either side, and is flooded with natural light from two large sash windows. The large second double bedroom includes a walk-in wardrobe space and built-in cabinetry. The third bedroom, currently serving as a nursery, offers ample space for a double bed and would also make a wonderful home office.

The principal suite spans the top floor, fitted with bespoke English oak wardrobes and furniture, air conditioning, and bespoke timber windows with beautiful internal shutters. The bedroom is dual aspect and enjoys incredible views across the surrounding chimney tops and treetops through newly restored casement windows and a skylight. The principal ensuite bath and shower room features underfloor heating by 'Bödenwarme', a freestanding 'Lusso Stone' bath, an oversized walk-in shower cubicle, and a solid oak double vanity. Geometric 'Mandarin Stone' tile flooring and polished concrete walls create a striking spa-like finish, all bathed in natural light from electric 'Velux' skylights. The top-floor landing is flooded with natural light from an additional skylight, and a ceiling hatch provides access to the roof, a unique vantage point across the Bristol skyline.

The lower level offers exceptional flexibility, currently arranged as a snooker room with a 'Riley Aristocrat' table, full gym, utility room and plant room. This floor is ready to convert into a self-contained annexe, with plumbing already in place for a shower room and WC. It could also easily be transformed into a fully self-contained flat, as it enjoys independent access in addition to internal connectivity. Bespoke polished concrete flooring with wet underfloor heating runs throughout, and there's internal access to the double garage and rear garden.

The newly built double garage features underfloor heating, a 'Hormann' garage door, industrial-grade 'Teknomek' sink, and 3-phase power. It is fitted with an 'Andersen 22kW' EV charger, 'Cat 6' ethernet and office services in the corner (envisaged for a home office), and houses a (whole house) water filtration system by 'Aquatiére'. A rear door leads directly to the garden.

The front façade is an impressive display of restored Bath stone with original architectural detailing, solid slate steps, and an elevated entrance. A wide driveway provides ample off-street parking and access to the sizeable internal garage.

The rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to include a mixture of lawns, raised beds, and decking directly off the kitchen, perfect for al fresco dining and entertaining.

There is also independent access down to the garage below, enhancing both practicality and flexibility. A further noteworthy feature is a section of architectural glass near the spa area, which allows natural light to flood into the garage space beneath, perfect for housing a home office space. Above the garage sits a private roof terrace, accessed via the entrance hall.

This secluded spot features a 'Northern Lights' six-person red cedar sauna and matching tub, upgraded with an air-source pump to allow both ice-cold plunges and hot soaks. A hot and cold outdoor shower and wood burner complete this extraordinary home spa.

Altogether, this is a home of remarkable quality and design, where heritage features meet modern precision. It offers generous accommodation, luxurious detailing, and a rare level of thought and care throughout, in one of Bristol’s most desirable neighbourhoods.

Please note: The Freehold is currently being aquired and is in the final stages of transfer, so the property will be sold with the Freehold Title.
