Rooms

History
Built circa 1847 by the renowned Bristol developer, Hinton, utilising stone sourced from the neighbouring quarry (now a serene nature reserve), this distinguished abode stands as a testament to timeless elegance and architectural mastery. Originally conceived as a grand 10-bedroom residence, it has since been gracefully converted into two homes, yet retaining its regal allure and period features.

Ground Floor
Upon entering through the imposing original Gothic door, guests are greeted by a grand reception hall adorned with tessellated original tiled flooring, leading to a magnificent sweeping staircase that whispers tales of the past. The main living spaces exude opulence, bathed in natural light from triple aspect windows, provides a serene sanctuary, boasting Byzantine-style windows, ornate cornices, and exquisite marble fireplaces adorned with unique Victorian tiles. Adjacent, the study oozes sophistication with its original gothic windows and a fireplace adorned with salacious tiles, offering a haven for scholarly pursuits. Entertaining is elevated to an art form in the formal dining room, where two high gothic windows frame the outside, complemented by a spacious layout and original 'grape' design ceiling cornice.

Lower Ground Floor
For entertaining and gatherings, a utility/occasional kitchen area provides convenience, while the lower ground floor unveils a contemporary kitchen/breakfast room replete with premium integrated appliances, underfloor heating, and historic railway tracks exposed in the walls. A walk-in pantry, space for a dining table and access to the garden add practicality to its charm.

First Floor
The upper floors reveal a wealth of accommodation, with the first floor dedicated to three double bedrooms, including a master suite boasting triple aspect Gothic windows and a feature fireplace. A beautifully appointed four-piece bathroom and an upper sitting room with access to a Minstrel Gallery overlooking the reception hall adds to the allure of this floor.

Second Floor and Turret Terrace
Ascending to the second floor, two additional double bedrooms await, offering breathtaking views from the larger of the two through triangular windows. A three-piece shower room was added by the current owners to services the bedrooms on this floor. A door from the landing leads to a wrought iron staircase, ascending to a turret, providing a serene retreat to bask in the mesmerising 360-degree views.

Rear Garden & Garage
Outside, the landscaped rear garden offers a tranquil oasis, replete with shrubs, trees, and a charming octagonal greenhouse. Multiple seating areas cater to every mood and occasion, while stairs lead down to parking for two to three cars accessed via electric gates, leading to a spacious garage with an adjoining workshop.

Conclusion
In essence, this distinguished residence transcends the ordinary, offering a lifestyle of unparalleled refinement and sophistication, where every moment is imbued with a sense of timeless elegance and grandeur. Welcome to a home where history meets modern luxury, and panoramic views frame a life of extraordinary privilege.
