A stunning architect-designed Clifton apartment with landscaped courtyard garden, off road parking, and a fully insulated home office/guest suite annex, including bike store and utility area

Description

An incredibly rare and unique, architect-designed Clifton home with an impeccable finish, landscaped courtyard garden, annex incorporating a home office, shower room, utility, and driveway parking. Recently stripped back and meticulously renovated throughout by Clover Studio, the apartment now offers a flawless Clifton abode - blending timeless Victorian charm with refined, minimalist living. Clover Studio is a Bristol-based architecture and design practice working internationally, known for culturally rich interiors and technically rigorous detailing.

Occupying the lower ground floor of a quiet and charming Victorian townhouse, the apartment has been comprehensively reimagined and rebuilt to create a high-performance, character-rich home. The design combines spatial generosity with technical precision - restoring Victorian features at the front while introducing a calmer, more minimal flow to the rear.

The apartment is set back from the road and accessed via a stone path and steps through a delightful landscaped front garden. A useful storage unit houses kids bikes and prams. The front door opens into a spacious porch with ample room for coats and boots.

The living room has been intelligently designed with bespoke joinery, including abundant integrated storage, a separate coat cupboard and shelving. Engineered ash tongue-and-groove flooring, dimmable spot and integrated LED lighting, and wet underfloor heating run throughout. A charming Bath stone feature fireplace with slate hearth and reinstated cornicing provide character, while a bay window with three double-glazed sash windows floods the room with light. The bay window hosts a dining space where there is ample space for 6 dining. The room perfectly balances modern convenience with period charm - ideal for working, relaxing, or entertaining.

The adjacent kitchen is compact and efficient, featuring a stylish, modern, two-tone design. All timber joinery is bespoke and finished with Danish linseed oil. Worktops are Quartz with upstand, an integrated sink, and a tiled backsplash. Integrated appliances include a Samsung oven/grill, four-ring induction hob with extractor, fridge-freezer, and Bosch dishwasher. Bespoke reeded glass doors allow light to pass from front to rear, offering a duel aspect.

Both double bedrooms are located at the rear, with a westerly orientation and delightful garden views. They feature engineered ash flooring and direct garden access. Bedroom one is fitted with a full wall of bespoke, integrated wardrobes, as well as spot and dimmable LED ambient lighting integrated into the oiled ash headboard. An integrated bedroom sink with mirror and cabinetry provides further convenience. Bedroom two is also a bright double, with a double-glazed window and full-height glazed door onto the garden. The bedrooms share a contemporary family bathroom, finished in marble and tile, with underfloor heating and a deep tub-style bath with rain shower over. Bespoke mirrored cabinetry and premium sanitaryware offer ample storage and refinement.

To the rear is a beautifully presented, west-facing landscaped courtyard garden with well stocked red-brick beds and a specimen Bay, and cherry tree. A substantial flagstone terrace provides space to dine outdoors with seating for up to eight.

Beyond the garden is a modern, fully insulated and double-glazed out-house clad in larch. It has its own Wi-Fi-enabled immersion boiler and two functional sides. One side serves as a modern study or third bedroom with electric underfloor heating, tiled flooring, spot lighting, and its own shower room, making it perfect for people staying or using all day as a self-contained office with adjoining ablutions. The other side is a practical utility/storage area, with drying lines, a Wi-Fi-enabled radiator to turn on when drying, bike storage, white goods, a sink, and worktop counter.

Directly behind the outbuilding is a driveway with space for one car, as part of the property’s curtilage. This is directly accessible via a lane from Hanbury Road. The property is located in a Residents Parking Scheme.

The property is leasehold and offered with no onward chain.
