Description

The General is a stunning Grade II Listed apartment building situated on the edge of Bathurst Basin and the Avon Cut, on the edge of Bristol's historic floating harbour, forming part of City & Country's award-winning development of the former Bristol General Hospital. Within the General's development are two Michelin-star restaurants – Casa and Paco Tapas - whilst within a mile or so are many of Bristol's best restaurants and casual dining venues including the award-winning CARGO just 0.4 miles away.

The property is within walking distance of cultural venues such as The Tobacco Factory, Bristol Old Vic and Colston Hall, and also Bristol Temple Meads station. Extensive shopping is available just over 1 mile away. Clifton Village is a little under 2 miles to the west, while the Ashton Court Estate (2.5 miles) provides 850 miles of open parkland.

42 The General is an exquisite two-bedroom duplex apartment, situated over the first and second floors (with lift access) of this historic landmark building, covering circa 1000 sq. ft.

The apartment is a perfect space in which to relax, work or entertain, the apartment has a feeling of space and light throughout with oversized windows, double-height ceilings and a sprawling west-facing balcony which overlooks the water and Bathurst Marina.

The apartment has a calming contemporary feel with lime-washed oak floors in the entrance hall, reception room and kitchen and a high-quality carpet on the stairs, across the landing and in the bedrooms.

All of the accommodation is flooded with natural light which pours in through a selection of beautiful oversized sash windows, all of which enjoy a westerly orientation.

A large glazed door opens to the sizeable west-facing balcony which is the perfect place to enjoy a sundowner or simply relax and take in the spectacular views over the Bathurst Basin and marina.

The kitchen itself is modern and beautifully appointed with an array of Neff appliances; including a double oven and grill, ceramic hob as well as an integrated full-height fridge/freezer and dishwasher.

For those who enjoy cooking, the kitchen offers an expanse of sleek worktop surfaces and an array of storage options, including a selection of floor and wall-mounted cupboard and drawer space.

To the opposite side of the entrance hall is a well-proportioned second bedroom which features the same impressive oversized sash windows, and views over the water and moored boats.

The second bedroom is situated next to a sizable and stylish fully tiled bathroom/guest WC, complete with an overhead shower, wall-mounted sink, vanity mirror a heated towel ladder. Adjacent is a useful storage cupboard.

Without a doubt, however, the principal bedroom is one of the more noteworthy features and has exceptional views from its elevated position perched above the sitting room on its mezzanine level.

The principal bedroom is effortlessly cosy, yet still very spacious and extremely well proportioned with the added benefit of enjoying the use of a bespoke and hand-built dressing room and en-suite with walk-in oversized shower cubicle, wash basin, WC, vanity mirror and a heated towel ladder.
