This expansive three-bedroom maisonette occupies the entire top floor of a handsome late‑Georgian house in leafy Leigh Woods, offering nearly 2,000 sq ft of light-filled living and uninterrupted views across Bristol. Recently renovated throughout, the home blends period features — high vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, arched sash windows and exposed stonework — with contemporary finishes including a bespoke Wren kitchen, underfloor heating and a new wood burner.
The plan is a free‑flowing open layout ideal for family life or entertaining: a dual-aspect drawing room with full-height library, a well-equipped kitchen with island and AGA, and three double bedrooms including two en suites and generous fitted wardrobes. A maintenance terrace on the roof provides panoramic views of the Clifton Suspension Bridge and city skyline, and there is off-street parking plus additional local permits.
Practical positives include share of freehold tenure, fast broadband, no flood risk and a very affluent, low-crime neighbourhood close to Clifton Village amenities and excellent schools. Equally, buyers should be aware of recurring costs and older‑building considerations: a service charge of about £1,200pa (£100pcm), Council Tax in Band E, original granite walls likely without added insulation, and the property’s pre‑1900 construction may mean ongoing maintenance or conservation requirements.
This home suits those seeking a characterful, move‑in ready penthouse with generous internal space, spectacular views and immediate access to green countryside trails — ideal for families or buyers who prize location, scale and character. For anyone prioritising the utmost thermal efficiency or minimal upkeep, factor in potential retrofit work to the masonry and periodic maintenance common to historic properties.
