Bellevue, Clifton

"One of my favourite moments here is early evening, when golden hour light comes in and the park goes quiet. Because it’s end-terrace with windows on three sides, light shifts through the day and from the living room you see more trees than rooftops, which still feels rare in the middle of Bristol. In summer the gardens fill with colour and in the evenings, you can hear tawny owls nearby. It’s a small thing, but it’s always made it feel calm and tucked away."

The Home

Set within a majestic Grade II listed Georgian terrace, this first-floor conversion occupies an elevated position with captivating views across Brandon Hill and far beyond, giving the home a rare sense of openness and connection to the city. Light pours through large sash windows, accentuating the impressive ceiling heights and casting soft highlights across elegant period detailing.

The atmosphere is calm, effortless and full of character heightened further by a restored fireplace now home to a newly installed log burner, bringing warmth and quiet presence to the living space.
Beautifully presented and entirely turn-key, the apartment unfolds laterally with a natural ease. The updated kitchen blends crisp contemporary finishes with the building’s heritage, while the refurbished bathroom continues the theme of refined, understated design. Clean lines, gentle colour tones and an abundance of natural light create a space that feels uplifting from the first moment.

From the principal living areas, far-reaching city views stretch out towards the skyline, shifting beautifully throughout the day and framing the apartment as something genuinely special. Perfectly positioned between Clifton Village, The Triangle and the Harbourside, this is Georgian living at its most atmospheric and beautifully composed.

The Gardens

Residents enjoy exclusive access to extensive communal gardens lush, peaceful and unexpectedly generous for such a central Clifton setting. Mature planting and wide lawns create a sense of calm that feels worlds away from the city, offering quiet moments for reading, morning coffees and slow summer evenings with friends. It’s a truly treasured extension of the home, enhancing the already exceptional lifestyle offered by this unique Georgian apartment.

Living in Clifton

Bellevue is a classic row of attractive Clifton Georgian terraced housing, the like of which were first commissioned in the 1780s and further developed and completed in the early 19th century following interruptions for war. With much of the greenery maintained around this elevated Grade II listed terrace as well as the immediate setting and the far-reaching views explain even to the modern-day visitor, why this position was initially selected. Today, properties along this road are ideally positioned for the five-minute walk to the shops and amenities of Clifton Triangle and Park Street as well as the greenery of Brandon Hill, home to Cabot Tower, just on the doorstep. Within a short walk are well-regarded restaurants, shops and cafes such as Catley's, Foliage Cafe and 1 York Place, and the Eldon House. By car, you would be well positioned on this side of the city for a short drive to the M5 or M32 for wider access to the rest of Bristol.
