Description
Occupying a prime central Bristol location, this beautifully presented penthouse is situated in a conversion of a Grade II Listed Victorian building, completed in 2021. Finished in a contemporary style, it offers luxurious living just moments from the Harbourside (5 mins walk) and Temple Meads station (15 mins walk). With stunning views across the city skyline, Ashton Court, and the river, this is a rare opportunity to secure a truly exceptional home.
Spread across two levels, the apartment is accessed from a communal hallway and benefits from lift access. A fabulous wrap-around terrace offers a perfect setting for al fresco dining or relaxing while enjoying the ever changing cityscape.
The principal bedroom includes a full-length French window opening onto the terrace, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor feel with stylish en suite shower room. The second bedroom is also a good-sized double with an adjacent family bathroom. The third bedroom is currently arranged as a stylish office/cinema room, offering flexible use to suit your lifestyle. A further cosy sitting room provides an inviting space to relax, and generous built-in storage in the hallway adds valuable practicality.
A staircase leads to the top floor, revealing a stunning open-plan kitchen, dining and living space. The kitchen is well appointed with integrated appliances including a double oven, fridge freezer, dishwasher and ample storage space. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the area with natural light, showcasing the extensive rooftop and river views.
The property has been finished to a high specification throughout, with elegant wooden flooring, classic sash windows, and sleek contemporary bathroom fittings.
Additional highlights include pet-friendly living and two secure undercroft parking spaces, making this an ideal choice for professionals, couples or downsizers seeking refined city-centre living with excellent amenities and transport links.
Residents enjoy the convenience of an on-site concierge team for parcel collection, as well as a well-equipped gym, dentist, and a variety of restaurants within the development. The vibrant Ostrich pub is just two minutes away, with a large Asda supermarket reachable in five minutes, and the lively Wapping Wharf with a range of eateries is also close at hand.
