Description
Positioned between Lime Kiln Road and Bristol’s Floating Harbour, Oculus House forms part of Brandon Yard, an impressive harbourside development within one of the city’s most historic dockside quarters. Once home to working harbour buildings that supported Bristol’s thriving maritime trade, the area has since been thoughtfully transformed into a smart and highly regarded residential setting, offering a wonderful balance of heritage, architecture and contemporary waterside living.
The location is superb. Wapping Wharf and the award-winning Cargo development are within a short walk, offering an excellent selection of independent restaurants, cafés and shops, while the M Shed, Underfall Yard and Bristol’s much-loved harbourside walks are all close by. Clifton Village, Park Street and the city centre are also comfortably accessible, along with leading cultural venues including St George’s, Bristol Old Vic and Bristol Beacon. Cabot Circus and the M32 are within approximately two miles, Bristol Temple Meads Station is just over a mile on foot, and Bristol Airport is approximately 7.4 miles away.
The apartment is arranged on the ground floor and offers a generous, well-considered layout with easy access from the communal hallway. Wide internal doorways make the property particularly suitable for wheelchair users, while walnut hardwood flooring runs throughout, complemented by underfloor heating, creating a warm and understated finish. A glazed door opens into a substantial open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, an elegant and highly sociable room notable for its ceiling height, natural light and direct connection to the outdoors. Two large glazed doors open onto the private courtyard garden, allowing the living space to flow beautifully outside and making it ideal for day-to-day living, entertaining and relaxed summer evenings.
The kitchen is thoughtfully designed and finished to a high specification, with marble-effect quartz work surfaces and a comprehensive range of integrated Bosch appliances, including an oven, microwave, electric hob with extractor, fridge freezer and dishwasher. A central island provides further storage and informal bar seating, creating a natural focal point for relaxed meals, morning coffee or hosting friends.
The private south-west facing courtyard garden spans the width of the apartment and is accessible from both the dining and living areas. Sheltered, practical and wonderfully usable, it acts as a natural extension of the main living accommodation and is perfectly suited to al fresco dining, evening drinks or simply enjoying a quiet moment outdoors.
Both bedrooms are positioned towards the rear of the apartment and are well proportioned, each benefitting from integrated wardrobe storage. Both also feature distinctive oculus-style windows with deep window seats and views over the communal gardens beyond — an elegant architectural detail that brings character, softness and a quiet place to pause. The principal bedroom is particularly generous and includes floor-to-ceiling integrated wardrobes, together with a fully tiled en-suite shower room fitted with a walk-in shower enclosure, heated towel rail, Duravit basin, floating WC and mirrored vanity storage. The second bedroom also benefits from floor-to-ceiling integrated wardrobe storage and is served by a separate fully tiled bathroom, finished to a matching contemporary standard with bath and overhead shower, Duravit basin, floating WC and vanity unit.
Externally, Brandon Yard is set within tranquil, landscaped communal gardens overlooking the water and benefits from secure gated access. The apartment also includes a dedicated undercroft parking space with EV charging, together with access to a secure bike store. The property is offered chain free, with a share of the freehold and also benefits from the ability to short let, subject to the necessary consents. The development is fully compliant with current fire safety regulations and holds a valid EWS1 form.
We are led to believe that there are approx. 992 years remaining on the lease with an annual service charge of £3,463 and ground rent of £20.
