Cotham Road, Cotham

"Morning sunlight fills the garden beautifully. It's wonderful having the city centre on your doorstep, yet with just enough distance and quiet to truly relax."

The Home

A substantial garden apartment extending to over 1,500 sq ft, set within a fine Grade II listed building accessed via its own private side entrance. The apartment is rich in period character throughout, with high ceilings, beautiful cornicing, and elegant sash windows all lending a distinctly Georgian feel.

The wide entrance hallway immediately impresses, with an exposed stone and brick wall adding a striking sense of history and character to the space. From here, the accommodation flows naturally into a large, beautifully proportioned sitting room, where high ceilings, original wooden floorboards, and a wood-burning stove create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The sitting room connects seamlessly through to the kitchen, allowing for a sociable and practical layout, and there is direct access from the living space out to the rear garden beyond.

The three bedrooms are all well-proportioned, with one benefitting from its own en-suite shower room. As you move further along the hallway towards the rear of the apartment, the style transitions into something more contemporary. Here, a cleverly utilised open space makes for an ideal study or work-from-home area — a smart and practical use of what the layout naturally offers. Beyond this, the accommodation is completed by a generous family bathroom and a separate W/C with utility space.

The Outside

To the rear, the apartment enjoys a real standout feature - a fully enclosed, south-east facing walled garden of considerable size. A stone patio leads directly from the sitting room out onto a level lawn, framed by well-established shrub and tree borders that provide an excellent degree of privacy. A garden shed completes the outside space.
