Description

7 Avon Grove represents a rare opportunity to acquire one of Bristol's finest Modernist homes, being sold with no onward chain, in one of its most coveted residential locations.

Set high on the cliff tops of Sneyd Park, Avon Grove is a rare and remarkable example of 1930s Modernist architecture. Designed between 1934 and 1935 by architect Mark Hartland Thomas in collaboration with his father, noted Bristol architect Percival Hartland Thomas, this unique three-storey detached home commands some of the most breathtaking views across the Avon Gorge.

Occupying an elevated and discreet position, the house has been thoughtfully orientated to maximise its southern
aspect. The principal rooms — including the sitting room, dining room, two generous bedrooms and the sun studio —
are arranged along the south elevation to capture the everchanging light and panoramic views across Leigh Woods and the iconic Clifton Suspension Bridge.

The home opens with an impressive double-height reception room, flooded with natural light from floor to- ceiling windows, where a central staircase leads to a galleried landing. Original features, including folding partition
doors between the reception and sitting room, as well as built-in oak shelving, cupboards, and a discreet study nook,
have been beautifully preserved.

The kitchen overlooks the front lawn and driveway through picture windows with integrated appliances, cabinetry and
some original larder units. Off the entrance hall, there is a downstairs WC and access to the integral double garage.

Upstairs, the first floor comprises four well-proportioned bedrooms, a family bathroom and separate WC and a spacious principal suite with private dressing room and en suite shower room. At the top of the house, the sun studio
enjoys remarkable triple-aspect glazing to enjoy the striking views, opening onto the rooftop where ten solar panels are discreetly installed.

Outside
Externally, the property truly excels. A beautifully paved south-facing terrace provides an exceptional space for entertaining or alfresco dining. Beyond, a series of tiered garden levels unfold over approximately 120 metres, featuring manicured lawns, mature planting, a greenhouse, and potential for further landscaping or development (subject to the necessary consents). At the lower reaches, the garden opens into a very peaceful wooded setting.

The property also benefits from off-street parking and an integral double garage, offering ample storage.


Nestled in the prestigious enclave of Sneyd Park, Avon Grove enjoys a tranquil and elevated setting just moments from the natural beauty of the Avon Gorge and The Downs. This is a highly sought-after residential area with Clifton Village, Whiteladies Road and Bristol's city centre all within easy reach. The nearby motorway network and Bristol Temple Meads railway station provide convenient access to London and the wider South West, and Bristol Airport is just a 30 minute drive away.
