Westbury Road, Westbury-on-Trym, Bristol

Top-floor living directly overlooking Durdham Downs — a rare flat with both outlook and generous proportions.

Overview

At 90sqm, it offers two double bedrooms, a separate lounge and kitchen/diner, and a 28-foot hallway - generous proportions for a 2-bed flat in BS9.
Private front door, allocated parking, no neighbours above, skylit rooms, and sash windows & fireplaces retained throughout. 999-year lease.

The building:
Set within a handsome period building directly opposite Durdham Downs. Three flats in total, each with its own private entrance. Allocated parking at the rear. The building is well kept and internally managed by the owners. Lease is 999 years.

Inside:
The hallway runs just over 28 feet — an unusual proportion for a flat of any size, and one that creates a genuinely versatile transition space. Large enough to hold a home-working setup without compromising the circulation to the living rooms or bedrooms. A side corridor off the hallway provides a concealed utility area for washing machine and dryer.

The lounge and kitchen/diner sit at the front of the building, both looking over the Downs. The lounge has a front window and two skylights — generous natural light from multiple angles, with room for a full sofa arrangement. The kitchen/diner has plenty of cupboard and worktop space and comfortably fits a six-seater table.

The two bedrooms are both doubles, set at the rear of the flat. The master retains a period fireplace and benefits from both loft and understairs storage. The bathroom has a white suite with a storage cupboard and a side window for light and ventilation.

Character:
Original double-glazed sash windows, stripped floors in places, retained fireplaces, and several original doors throughout.

Outside

Allocated parking space at the rear of the building.
