Description

Viewings Available Friday 10th October and Saturday 18th October.

Perfectly positioned in the heart of St. Andrews, this home sits directly opposite the much loved 7.5-acre St. Andrews Park, a community hub known for its open lawns, mature trees, public splash pool, and relaxed atmosphere.

This is a neighbourhood where calm, tree lined streets meet a strong local community and culture, with Gloucester Road just a short walk away offering a mix of independent shops, cafés, bakeries, and restaurants. A brand-new Waitrose has also recently opened nearby, making everyday shopping both easy and local.

Families are especially well served here, with a wide selection of highly rated schools within close walking distance. These include Sefton Park Junior School (0.3 miles), E-Act Fairlawn Primary School (0.39 miles), E-Act Montpelier High School (0.4 miles), Bishop Road Primary School (0.49 miles), Redland Green School (0.65 miles), and Fairfield High School (0.69 miles). Whether you're drawn by the green space, the sense of community, or the exceptional schooling, this location has it all.

Overlooking the wide-open green of St. Andrews Park, this substantial family home offers beautifully appointed living space across three thoughtfully designed floors. Built in Georgian architectural style, the property blends timeless period character with a series of sensitive, high-quality upgrades, creating a warm and functional space that works just as well for family life as it does for entertaining.

Step inside and you're welcomed by a generous entrance hallway, complete with tall ceilings, original cornicing, a feature fireplace, and a large under stairs storage cupboard. The bay fronted reception room to the front of the house is a standout, light-filled and elegant, with bespoke fitted cabinetry, a cast iron open fireplace with marble surround, and sweeping views over the park.
At the rear of the ground floor, the open plan kitchen, dining and snug area forms the true heart of the home. The snug includes a Handöl wood burning stove and French doors that open directly onto the garden patio. The dining area retains a period style gas fireplace with ornate surround, while the kitchen is fully fitted with a Leisure range cooker with six gas burners and three ovens, an integrated Bosch dishwasher, a Samsung American style fridge freezer, a large breakfast larder cupboard, and a wide array of fitted cabinetry. A separate utility room offers additional storage, a sink, garden access, and houses a Vaillant boiler. A guest WC and a second storage cupboard complete the ground floor.
Upstairs, the first floor is accessed via a bright, spacious landing with a feature arch and further period detailing. Three double bedrooms sit on this level. Two of these face the park and include bespoke built-in wardrobes, while the third, to the rear, features full width integrated storage and access to a recently refurbished shower room opposite. The luxurious main bathroom on this floor features a freestanding roll top bath, walk in shower, WC, vanity basin with backlit mirror, soft LED lighting, and marble effect wall tiling.
The top floor offers exceptional flexibility and enormous potential. Currently comprising three further double bedrooms, a study with a kitchenette, and a fully tiled bathroom with walk in shower, bath, WC, and basin, this floor could easily be reconfigured into a self-contained flat or an impressive principal suite. Most of the internal walls on this level are stud construction, meaning prospective buyers could open up and redesign the space to suit their preferences. A second boiler is also located here in a deep landing cupboard, supporting independent living if desired.
Externally, the property continues to impress. The front garden features a smart block paved driveway with mature planting and space for two vehicles. To the rear, a private west facing garden enjoys sun from afternoon through to evening, with a lawn, raised beds, and a paved patio ideal for outdoor dining. There is also secure rear access and a vibrant custom mural painted by a local Bristol artist (Bex Glover), adding a creative and personal touch to the garden.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial and stylish home in one of Bristol’s most sought-after communities, offering space, flexibility, and an unbeatable setting.
