An historic townhouse in this desirable square and with elevated views towards the harbourside.
Description
An historic Grade II listed townhouse constructed circa 1789 and from traditional materials with brick front façade and rendered rear elevation. The property retains plenty of its original detail and in evidence are sash windows, feature fireplaces and ceiling cornice. The versatile footprint caters well for families young and old and homeworking and there is enjoyable outside space with communal square garden to the front, a communal meeting place for residents, a flagstone terrace to the rear which enjoys good privacy with a sunny orientation and a lawned and terraced elevated area enjoying far reaching views of the docks. The property has five floors of accommodation with four bedrooms served by two bathrooms and the principal rooms on the hall and first floor have designated functions. The drawing room has three quarter length casements with window seats overlooking the rear elevation and traditional fireplace with cast inset as the focal point and beyond the withdrawing room with more relaxed seating area with similar detail and two casements overlooking the front of the square.
The kitchen/breakfast room and formal dining room flow seamlessly with the former incorporating a range of wall and base units and the prerequisite cooking facilities. There is a casement window and window seat overlooking the rear garden with a pedestrian door to the sun terrace.
The lower ground floor could be self contained (subject to the necessary consents) and accommodate a dependant relative as a one bed flat subject to some modifications. In its current guise it provides an excellent working environment with two studies, an en suite shower room for one of the rooms and a utility. There is also a door leading to a small front courtyard with access to the vaults and front terrace.
The principal bedroom includes a range of built in wardrobes, low level drawers and a feature fireplace with vanity unit and a pair of casements overlooking the rear elevation. Beyond is a single bedroom and a bathroom whilst on the top floor there are two further bedrooms and bathroom.
Outside and to the rear, the garden has been laid out to provide various functions. The terrace is ideal for al fresco dining and provides some dappled shade from the weeping willow and there are shaped and well stocked flower borders which provide year round colour. The lawned garden is private, slightly elevated and enjoys far reaching views towards the waterfront and beyond. There are steps leading to a wooden garden shed whilst the boundary is evergreen and provides a screen. The resident's parking scheme provides plenty of opportunity to both front and rear and available by separate negotiation is a single garage located in and beyond the curtilage of the house.
Location
A prime and niche address on the lower slopes of Clifton, Hope Square offers good ease of access to Clifton Village with its myriad of amenity and indeed to the waterfront with pleasant walks, maritime activity, bars and restaurants. Views from the house are over the communal square garden to the front and Cornwallis Gardens to the rear with established trees providing a pleasant green backdrop.
There are good arterial links to the commercial centre, A4 and M32 serving the M5 and M4 respectively. Bristol Temple Meads is 2.9 miles distant with services to the wider country and there is also a water taxi with a direct link.
Hope Square lies to the North West of Bristol with plenty of green space on the periphery and notable landmarks including Clifton Suspension Bridge, Ashton Court Estate and Durdham Downs. There are many schools of note including state and independent.
