Berkeley Road, West Bishopston, Bristol

No.47 is a substantial period townhouse, situated in the leafy West Bishopston area. Of particular note is the 33m / 108 ft rear garden, that benefits from rear vehicular access and a garage - something very rare in the location.

Overview

Behind the handsome façade, accommodation is spread over four floors with an abundance of original features still present. Entry is via a private and landscaped south-facing garden with a flagstone pathway leading to the front door. At the front elevation, a generous bay fronted and light-filled sitting room enjoys a green outlook over the enclosed front garden. Given the hall floor is slightly elevated from the road, there is also a greater level of privacy and light. A number of period features of note are the detailed cornice, ceiling rose, picture rails and a period working fireplace with a slate hearth.
Along the hall and at the rear of the plan is an extended and opened-up kitchen/dining/living space that opens via bi-folding doors to the impressive and level rear garden. Completing this floor is a useful store room (formerly the Butler's Pantry), a shower room, and additional storage.
Back in the hall and stairs lead down to a very useful lower ground floor level - ripe for further development and independent access (subject to consent).
Up at the first-floor level, a full-width bay-fronted room makes up the full width at the front elevation. This large room is currently used as an additional reception, but could also serve as the master bedroom.
A 2nd double bedroom is found in the middle, with a large and well-appointed bathroom found next.
At the rear is a comfortable study - affording views as far over as the Gloucester County cricket ground! A door opens onto an external staircase - gives access down to the garden.
Back at the first floor landing, stairs again rise up to the 2nd floor - where four additional bedrooms and a cloak room all open off of a central landing, lit by a velux window.

Outside

The level 33m / 108ft rear garden extends from the kitchen and is well stocked with mature planting and trees - providing all year-round interest.
Unusually for the position, there is secure rear vehicular access (for just four properties) via Wentworth Road.

Location

This sought-after tree-lined road sits within West Bishopston. No.47 lies at the very brow of the hill, giving a fantastic sense of space and light - accentuated further by looking over the entrance to Broadway Road.
This area is made popular by its close proximity to the many amenities that line Gloucester Road and falling in the catchment for both Redland Green Secondary School and Bishop Road Primary School.

We think...

This is a fantastic proposition and one that is rarely available in such a desirable location.
