Set on the first floor of a handsome Victorian conversion on Durdham Park, this three-bedroom apartment blends period character with practical modern upgrades. High ceilings, sash windows and original features give the principal rooms a bright, airy feel while a recently refitted kitchen and en suite bring contemporary convenience. The property includes a large private cellar storage room, useful for bikes and outdoor kit.
The location is a major draw for families: Durdham Downs is on the doorstep and the apartment sits inside the first-priority area for Redland Green School. Everyday amenities on Whiteladies Road and North View are within easy walking distance, and public transport links to the city centre are frequent. Fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and a very affluent neighbourhood support both home and remote working needs.
Practical points are straightforward: the flat is sold as a share of freehold with a very long lease (992 years) and an average service charge of about £1,800 per year (£150pcm). Parking is on-street with permit arrangements nearby rather than private off-street parking. The building’s stone walls are original and assumed to lack modern insulation — a consideration for buyers wanting to improve thermal efficiency.
This apartment suits families seeking space and school catchment, professionals wanting a leafy city location, or downsizers looking for period charm without the maintenance of a house. The layout and cellar storage also offer potential to personalise or reconfigure rooms, subject to permission, to match modern living requirements.
