Summary - 47 BRISLINGTON HILL BRISTOL BS4 5NJ
Grade II listed 17th‑century detached house, circa 1660
A rare, substantial Grade II listed 17th‑century detached house on a very large dual‑access plot in Brislington. Recently renovated yet retaining strong period character — flagstone floors, sash windows, servant bells and wooden shutters — the property offers nineteen rooms across approximately 3,470 sq ft, including a large kitchen, cinema room, library, two offices, utility rooms and extensive bespoke storage. Outdoor features include a large driveway, double garage/workshop, woodshed, WW2 bunker and two stables.
This home suits a buyer seeking architectural character and considerable space: families wanting flexible accommodation, or purchasers with subdivision/alternative-use ambitions (subject to listed‑building and planning constraints). Practical strengths include mains gas central heating with a wood burner, FTTP broadband and a high‑end security system with electric gates. The elevated gardens provide far‑reaching views toward conservation land and generous private grounds for leisure or equestrian use.
Important drawbacks and restrictions are stated plainly. The house is Grade II listed and in the Brislington Conservation Area — works will be subject to consent and could be costly. The sandstone/limestone walls are assumed uninsulated, which may affect running costs despite recent renovation. The property falls within a coal mining area and sits in council tax band F (expensive). Buyers should obtain specialist surveys for structural, damp, timber and historic‑fabric considerations before purchase.
Overall this is an uncommon chance to own a restored period mansion with extensive outbuildings and grounds. Its scale and historic status bring both charm and responsibility: excellent for those who value provenance and space, and prepared to manage listed‑building obligations and ongoing maintenance.
