Description

Set within Elton House on Rodney Place, a discreet private road in the very heart of Clifton Village, this exceptional Grade II listed Georgian garden apartment offers close to 2,000 sq. ft. of beautifully arranged accommodation in one of Bristol’s most sought-after settings.

The location is part of what makes this home so special. Rodney Place feels tucked away and peaceful, yet Clifton Village, Christchurch Green, Whiteladies Road and The Triangle are all within easy reach. It is an address that gives you the best of both worlds - quiet, private surroundings right in the middle of one of Bristol’s most vibrant and well-loved neighbourhoods.

The apartment itself has been extensively refurbished by Moon Design and now offers a thoughtful balance of period character and contemporary design. The proportions are elegant, the finish is consistent throughout, and the overall feel is stylish without being overdone.

The entrance hallway immediately gives a strong sense of order and practicality, with bespoke built-in storage including a cupboard housing the Worcester boiler, washing machine and dryer, along with further space for coats and shoes. Glazed Crittall-style doors lead through into the main living space, helping the apartment flow beautifully and allowing light to travel through the interior.

The kitchen, dining and living area is the centrepiece of the home. It is a wonderfully sociable, open-plan space with a southerly aspect, a large sash window and full-height glazed doors opening onto the courtyard garden. The kitchen has been carefully designed to be both smart and functional, with granite worktops, square tiled splashbacks, floor-to-ceiling pantry cupboards and a range of quality integrated appliances including AEG induction hobs, a Siemens dishwasher, and Neff oven and microwave.

The sitting area is elegant and welcoming, centred around a marble fireplace with bespoke shelving to either side, while the dining area sits naturally between the kitchen and reception space and includes a fitted oak pew, giving the room warmth and character.

Just off the main reception space is a particularly characterful study with exposed brick walls and original flagstone flooring. Beyond this is another highly versatile room with impressive double-height arched ceilings and exposed brickwork, currently used as a guest bedroom and home gym. It could just as easily work as a cinema room, playroom, additional study or second reception room depending on requirements.

There are three double bedrooms in total, all well proportioned and beautifully presented. The principal bedroom is especially generous, with two large refurbished sash windows and wall-to-wall bespoke fitted wardrobes. It is served by a smart en-suite shower room finished to an excellent standard, with an oversized walk-in shower, vanity unit, heated towel rail and underfloor heating beneath wood-effect porcelain tiles.

The family bathroom has been particularly well executed, with a freestanding Waters bath, walk-in shower, floating WC, heated towel rail and a large vanity unit. Fully tiled and finished with geometric floor tiles, softly curved ceilings and a more muted colour palette, it is a room that feels both distinctive and quietly luxurious. Underfloor heating adds further comfort.

The third bedroom is currently used as a nursery and playroom and is another generous double room, positioned at the rear of the apartment with two sash windows and attractive window seats. As with the other sash windows throughout the property, these have been refurbished in recent years with locking hardware and brush seals to improve both efficiency and usability.

Outside, the apartment enjoys the rare benefit of both a private front garden and a private walled rear courtyard garden with a southwesterly aspect. The rear courtyard has been carefully landscaped and provides a wonderfully private outdoor space that works just as well for entertaining as it does for everyday enjoyment. It is a genuine suntrap and an unusually peaceful setting for such a central village location.

The courtyard also connects to a useful undercroft, ideal for additional storage, bikes and prams, making the property every bit as practical as it is attractive.
Beyond the rear garden is secure access to a private parking area and a gated garage, approached via electric gates from Portland Street. The garage benefits from power and provision for EV charging, which only adds to the appeal of what is already a very rare offering in Clifton Village.

Further practical details include Chauncey oak flooring through the principal ground floor accommodation, a ceiling speaker in the kitchen, hardwired Ethernet points in selected rooms, share of freehold tenure, and no onward chain.

A substantial and beautifully finished Clifton Village apartment, combining period elegance, strong design, private outside space and secure parking in a location that is consistently among Bristol’s most desirable.
