Sion Place, Clifton, Bristol, BS8

From the stunning communal entrance hall, complete with concierge desk, 102 is situated on the first floor accessed via an elegant sweeping staircase, or from the whisper quiet lift located almost the apartment's front door.

Immediately on entering the property, the fabulous ceiling height is apparent, and the principle rooms are flooded with natural light from its westerly orientation.

The welcoming entrance hall has oak flooring and, via glazed double doors complete with period fanlight above, opens into an elegant and beautifully proportioned reception room.

There is plenty of room for a dining table and chairs and with a ceiling height of over 15', this room has a fabulous feeling of space with views out over the private terrace towards Brunel's Suspension bridge.

The ceiling is rich in period detail, picked out by bespoke lighting illuminating the recessed cornice work. The terrace is accessed by one of the three sash windows, really bringing the outside in and making it the perfect spot for a lunch or evening sun-downer watching the sunset over the bridge beyond.

Double doors open from the reception room into the Smallbone of Devizes Kitchen, again flooded with light from a double height sash window. The oak cabinets, with granite worktops, provide plenty of storage and the kitchen is completed by an integrated washer/dryer, dishwasher, microwave, under-counter fridge and an electric oven with a four ring ceramic hob.

The master bedroom is quite simply a stunning space, complete with one of the finest bathrooms in Bristol. Twin sash windows provide plenty of the light. There is an integrated double wardrobe and a large recessed walk-in wardrobe.

through to a cloakroom providing a w.c and bidet. The bathroom is finished with underfloor heating, tiled floor and a wall mounted heated towel ladder.

Bedroom two is a generous size, with an oversize sash window and integrated double wardrobe. This bedroom is served by a separate guest shower room, beautifully finished with an over-size shower cubicle, w.c and wash basin. The tiled floor again benefits from underfloor heating and there is also a wall mounted heated towel ladder.
