Belmont Road, St. Andrews, Bristol, BS6

115 Belmont Road is a superb family home; beautifully refurbished, extended and modernised by the current owners, with the work completed in early 2020 seamlessly blending the numerous retained period features with modern touches and finishes throughout.

During the course of the refurbishment programme, the family have added some 750 sq. ft of accommodation, while at the same time dramatically improving the EPC rating (all the windows & sashes are double glazed) and creating a truly inspiring and versatile family home.

Accessed from the road, a pretty front garden catches much of the early morning and midday sun – perfect for a morning cup of coffee, with a secure pedestrian gate leading down the side to the rear garden – perfect for bikes and muddy children!

The handsome front door opens into a useful tiled entrance porch with plenty of space for coats and shoes, with a part-glazed door leading into the entrance hall.

From the entrance hall, glimpses of the rear views can be seen from the hall; attractively finished with a stripped oak floor and stairs up to the first floors, with a w.c and cloakroom fitted under the stairs.

Off the hall to the front is a charming sitting room; fitted with bespoke storage cupboards flanking the cast-iron woodburning stove and contemporary mantle beautifully illuminated by the four (double glazed) sash windows.

To the rear, the house becomes a beautiful family home; with the original rear reception room stylishly opened up to reveal the kitchen and newly created open plan breakfast / dining room beyond. |To the rear, the views stretch across the garden to the city beyond, with shallow steps down to the kitchen.

With underfloor heating flowing through the kitchen and breakfast room floors and light flooding in the from the Velux windows and fully opening bi-folding doors this is a wonderful space to enjoy, entertain and live family life to the full.

Bespoke built by a local carpenter the kitchen presents a range of floor and wall mounted storage cupboards, with Corian worktops and a range of integrated appliances.

From the breakfast room, a glazed door opens to steps leading down to the garden, utility and cellar storage below.

From the hall floor stairs lead up to the first floor; with a bedroom on each of the first and second floor half-landings.

Across the first floor itself lie two generous double bedrooms, with extensive views to the rear and a charming bedroom to the front (currently used as the main) with useful fitted wardrobes.

These bedrooms share a fitted family bathroom, with a panelled bath and shower over, wash basin, w.c and towel ladder, with an opaque sash widow and contemporary pastel coloured metro tiles.

Across the top floor, the owners have added a stunning loft-conversion and master bedroom suite; with jaw-dropping views across the city from a superb fully-opening almost full width wall of glazing, with a modern oak stripped wooden floor. An amazing space to sit and enjoy an evening sundowner.

The bedroom itself is dual aspect and a generous size, with a useful mezzanine deck and, to the rear, a large dressing room which (subject to being fitted) could create a superb walk-in wardrobe leading into a stylish en-suite shower room.

Accessed from the rear of the house is a large and versatile utility room; fitted with a wooden work top, plumbing for a washing machine and dryer with a Belfast sink and boiler cupboard this is currently in use as a gym.

From the utility there is access to an abundance of cellar / undercroft storage of various head heights; but creating an expanse of covered and secure storage.

Outside

To the rear, the west-facing gardens have been professionally landscaped to create a sociable and year ‘round space for families of all ages and size to enjoy; with a deep paved terrace for a BBQ and al-fresco dining, leading down to an all-weather level lawn surrounded by mature raised beds.

The gardens catch much of the day's sun and, being sunken, are sheltered from much of the prevailing winds.

This is perfect space for children to play whatever the weather, with gated side access to the front of the house all fully enclosed for security and peace of mind.
