Trinity Close, Paulton, Bristol

Westbrook House is a charming former school building originally dating from the 1800's with elevations in natural stone with cut stone mullion windows and a pitched slate clad roof. This appealing building was converted into residential use circa 2012 and has been subject to a painstaking refurbishment in the current ownership.

On the first floor the landing provides the approach to the three bedrooms and a bathroom. The master bedroom has built in wardrobes and an en suite shower room with quality fittings. A double size second bedroom has excellent built in storage. There is a third bedroom and a bathroom which is appointed to the same standard as the en suite. The first floor has a number of Velux windows with blinds which are remote controlled and electrically operated.
