2 bed flat for sale

Apsley Road, Clifton BS8

"There are so many things we love about this place. We have absolutely loved the grand size of the master bedroom and waking up to the morning sun streaming through its bay window. And we'll really miss entertaining in the garden around our fire pit, or just sitting in the garden on a summers morning after a run, tucking into a pastry and a coffee from the market. It's been such an incredible place to live and we're really going to miss it!"

The home

A spacious and light Clifton conversion that combines beautiful Victorian features with a stylish contemporary vibe. The sense of space is immediate as you enter the broad, central hallway through the pretty, stained glass private double doors. To the right is an excellent kitchen with a large bay window overlooking the garden. Easily large enough for hosting, with stripped floors and a log burner, it's a super social space and the heartbeat of the home. The lounge faces front, with a handsome Sandstone fireplace with elegant tiled inserts, stripped floors and stuttered windows, it's perfect for chilling out in the evening all year round and has the bonus of a semi separate office area attached. The main bedroom is impressively sized, with a large front facing bay window and loads of room for wardrobes. The second bedroom has a lovely vibe, overlooking the garden gives it an air of tranquility and makes it an excellent guest room. The bathroom, with it's arched ceiling, free standing bathtub and chic tiling is a wonderful retreat where the stresses of the day ease away. There is also super handy store room with ample space for everything you could reasonably want to tuck away.

The outside

With an allocated parking space at the front and great, shared gardens both front and rear, this property has all the benefits of a big garden without having the sole responsibility of maintenance. The rear garden is perfect for hosting on those long Summer afternoons and evenings as the sun comes round to the West. With pretty raised beds and loads of space to set up furniture as well as a handy storage shed for bikes and garden equipment, it's a real oasis in the heart of Clifton.
