Clifton Down, Clifton, Bristol, BS8

A beautifully appointed mews house in a first class Clifton location.

Description

Roxburgh Cottage enjoys an exceptional position, approached via a private road on the edge of Clifton Down and directly opposite the open green spaces of The Downs. The property is ideally situated just 0.6 miles from the boutiques, cafés and restaurants of Clifton Village, while the vibrant amenities of Whiteladies Road are approximately 0.8 miles away, offering an outstanding balance of tranquillity and city convenience.

Originally constructed circa 1860 as a coach house, Roxburgh Cottage has been comprehensively refurbished and thoughtfully reconfigured to create a beautifully presented home that seamlessly blends period character with contemporary design. Finished to an exceptional standard throughout, the accommodation has been carefully designed to maximise light, space and functionality.

The ground floor is centred around an impressive open-plan living space, perfectly suited to modern lifestyles. Distinct dining and sitting areas flow effortlessly into a bespoke kitchen, while a cloakroom completes the accommodation on this floor.

The beautifully crafted kitchen features an extensive range of bespoke cabinetry, complemented by elegant white marble worktops and a substantial central island incorporating a breakfast bar. A comprehensive range of integrated appliances includes an induction hob, oven, fridge, freezer and dishwasher, while a large window above the sink enjoys views over the private courtyard garden.

Adjoining the kitchen, the sitting room is an inviting and light-filled space, framed by expansive wall-to-wall glazing on one side and full-height bi-fold doors on the other, creating a seamless connection with the garden. An electric fireplace provides a focal point, while recessed shelving and integrated media provisions have been thoughtfully incorporated.

The first floor offers three well-appointed bedrooms. Two are positioned at the front of the property, one currently arranged as a comfortable double bedroom and the other ideally suited as a nursery, study or home office. These rooms are served by a beautifully finished family bathroom, featuring a freestanding bath, a generous walk-in shower with a Crittall-style screen, heated towel rail, wash basin and WC.

The principal bedroom occupies the rear of the property and provides a peaceful retreat, complete with a stylish fully tiled en suite shower room featuring a walk-in shower, heated towel rail, wash basin and WC.

Externally, the property enjoys the sole use of a private enclosed courtyard garden extending across the full width of the house, creating a secluded space for outdoor dining and entertaining. The cottage is accessed via a private road directly opposite Clifton Down, with informal parking available by arrangement with neighbouring residents, in addition to residents' permit parking available through the local authority.

Combining an enviable Clifton location with beautifully considered interiors and charming period character, Roxburgh Cottage presents a rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional home in one of Bristol's most sought-after addresses.
