Portland Square, St Pauls

"We have absolutely loved calling this place home; it's been perfect for entertaining, and the location speaks for itself with brilliant spots like The Bristolian and Artist Residence right on your doorstep."

The Home

Positioned on the lower ground floor of an attractive Grade II listed period building, this beautifully presented two bedroom apartment has been finished to an impressive specification, thoughtfully combining character features with contemporary design. The centrepiece is the stunning open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, wonderfully light for a lower ground floor home, thanks to three large sash windows that flood the space with natural light. Original coving sits beautifully alongside the elegant feature fireplace, adding real charm and a sense of character, while the open layout makes it a fantastic space for entertaining. The high-gloss kitchen is both modern and functional, complete with integrated Bosch appliances and an island.

The main bedroom is a generous size, with a particularly lovely exposed brick feature that carries through into the hallway, giving the home a warmth and individuality that sets it apart. The second bedroom makes clever use of under-bed storage whilst still comfortably accommodating a double, and both rooms enjoy a outlook over the private rear garden. The shower room has been redecorated into a tasteful space, and small finishing touches throughout, such as the new carpet, help the apartment feel truly special.

The Outside

From the main bedroom, a door opens directly onto the private decked courtyard garden. This space catches the evening sun, making it a lovely spot to unwind. Steps from the garden lead up to your own allocated off-road parking space, a particularly valuable feature for such a central location.
