Commanding an elevated position overlooking Christchurch Green, and accessed via a lift directly into the apartment, this wonderful opportunity delivers everything that one would expect from a property of this calibre.

Summary Of Accommodation - Litfield Court was sympathetically converted approximately ten years ago, creating eight luxury apartments set within the attractive Bath stone fabric of the former St Angela’s Convent. Many period features are retained throughout, and Litfield Court soon became the new benchmark for quality new homes in Clifton.

On entering the building, one is immediately aware of the quality of the communal areas, as the entrance hall is grand but understated and enjoys many period features. A staircase ascends to the upper floors, and a lift gives access to all floors with a private, secure setting that allows access directly into the Penthouse Apartment.

The apartment is extremely well appointed throughout, and benefits from charming vaulted ceilings with exposed timbers. The principle reception area is a light and bright space that divides very comfortably into a delightful sitting area with a fireplace as a centrepiece, an intimate dining area which opens to a stunning well appointed contemporary white handless kitchen. There are lots of clever storage solutions within the kitchen, and it affords a convenient breakfast area to enjoy the breathtaking views.

There are three generous double bedrooms, that all enjoy a lot of natural light, beautiful fireplaces as centre points, and boast far reaching views. The master bedroom, with an ensuite shower room, has lovely hand built bespoke fitted furniture. As with the ensuite, the exquisite family bathroom is very well appointed, and both enjoy the benefit underfloor heating.

Outside the communal areas are fabulous, with a beautiful elevated promenade to the rear of Litfield Court spanning the entire building and accessing a characterful garden room. There is also a communal garden to the rear of the plot that is mainly laid to lawn, with mature trees and shrubs. The property has an allocated parking space to the front of the building as well as a separate private storage room within the vaults of the building.
