Balmoral Road, Bristol, BS7

A beautiful bath-stone fronted three double-bedroom upper maisonette located on a quiet residential road in St Andrews, boasting character and very spacious accommodation over two floors, with fantastic south-facing views of the city.

On entering the property via a private vestibule with stained-glass windows, there is an entrance hall with decorative floor tiles and stairs leading to the first-floor accommodation. The main reception to the front spans the full width of the property, featuring tall ceilings, bay sash windows, a picture sash window, cornice, and a cast-iron feature fireplace with decorative tiled inserts. Next door, the kitchen/diner comprises a range of wall and base units with an integrated electric oven and hob, space for freestanding appliances, a breakfast bar and double-glazed window.

To the rear, the property has a modern three-piece bathroom comprising a panelled bath with a shower over, a pedestal wash-hand basin and a w.c. An additional shower room is positioned next door, with a walk-in shower cubicle, wash-hand basin and w.c. Both rooms have obscured double-glazed windows to the side elevation. Beyond, bedroom two is a sizeable double with a fitted wardrobe, carpet and a double-glazed window. There are also useful storage cupboards on the landing leading to the bathrooms and bedroom two.

A staircase lit by a skylight window rises to the top-floor landing, providing access to bedrooms 1 and 3. The principal bedroom spans the entire width of the property at the front and has a double-glazed dormer window, eaves storage, and built-in wardrobes. The third double bedroom, which is to the rear, has fantastic views through the double-glazed window.

Planning permission has been granted to create a roof terrace accessible from the top-floor landing. The plans grant permission to remodel the top-floor landing with stairs to a door opening onto a 5.35 m2 roof terrace, which will benefit from far-reaching southerly city views.

The local independent shops, cafes, and restaurants along Gloucester Road and St Andrews Park are only a short walk away. The property is also near to both Montpelier Station and Ashley Down Stations which offer a direct route into Templemeads or up to Clifton Downs. Nearby bus stops also provide access to arterial bus routes.

Sellers comments “There is a brilliant community here on Balmoral Road. The neighbours on all sides are kind, welcoming people and we’ve really enjoyed getting to know them over the years, including at the annual street party.”
