Beaufort Road, Clifton, Bristol, BS8

A handsome bay-fronted Victorian home with immense potential in a prime Clifton setting.

Description

An impressive bay-fronted Victorian semi-detached residence, constructed from attractive stone elevations with Bath stone dressings beneath a pitched and tiled roof. Having remained in the same family ownership for over 40 years, the property now offers an exciting opportunity to modernise and create a superb family home. The accommodation is arranged over four floors and includes the added benefit of a self-contained one-bedroom flat, ideal for multi-generational living or supplementary income. Throughout, there are retained period details including sash windows with working shutters, ornate cornicing and original fireplaces.

The property is approached via a substantial vestibule which doubles as a conservatory and leading into the spacious reception hall. The drawing room to the front enjoys a striking triple sash bay window and fireplace, while the dining room to the rear offers further character and flexibility, with an adjacent shower room. The kitchen sits to the front and, whilst functional, affords scope for reconfiguration. There is useful under-stairs storage which could be incorporated into the adjoining self-contained flat if desired.

The first floor provides a generous principal bedroom with adjoining dressing room alongside a further double bedroom and family bathroom. The top floor comprises four additional bedrooms arranged off a light-filled gallery landing, together with a further bathroom. Externally, a driveway gives access to the integral garage, while the rear garden is level, enclosed and mainly laid to lawn with well-established planting and additional access to the rear of the garage and boiler room.
