Built between 1934 and 1935, 7 Avon Grove is a modernist house designed by architect Mark Hartland Thomas. It is one of only two known commissions that Hartland Thomas completed in partnership with his father, Bristol architect Percival Hartland Thomas. This three-storey detached house showcases some of the finest views Bristol has to offer from its elevated position, nestled away on the cliff tops of Sneyd Park.
The property has been carefully designed to ensure that the views are enjoyed by all the principal accommodation, including the sitting room, dining room, two larger bedrooms, and sun studio, all of which are positioned on the south elevation of the property.
On the north elevation, the kitchen, bathrooms, secondary bedrooms, and garage overlook the front garden, drive and hedgerow boundary wall. Stepping inside, the open-plan hallway and sitting room are located directly opposite and feature impressive wall-to-wall and floor-to-ceiling glass, allowing light to pour into the space while perfectly framing the views of Leigh Woods and Brunel's suspension bridge in the distance. This space features a striking double-height entrance hall with a straight staircase leading up to a first-floor galleried landing.
Between the hall and the sitting room are the original folding doors which tuck away neatly. The sitting room includes original oak shelves and cupboards, along with a small study space with integrated shelving and a desk.
The kitchen has been modernised in recent years to include gas hobs, electric ovens, wall and floor-mounted cupboards, and drawer storage, while also retaining its original larders. The first floor currently consists of four bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a principal suite complete with a dressing room and en-suite bathroom.
The stairs lead to the sun studio, which features floor-to-ceiling and wall-to-wall glazed windows offering incredible triple aspect views. A glazed door provides access to the roof, where there are currently ten solar panels installed.
One of the most noteworthy features of this property is the circa 120 metre private south-facing garden, which is gently tiered over four to five levels before opening up into woodland.
The property enjoys a paved outdoor terrace that is extremely private and enjoys much of the day's sunshine from its elevated south facing orientation. The terrace is the perfect place to entertain or enjoy alfresco dining and sundowners. The gardens are the perfect place to entertain or simply sitting and unwinding while taking in the beautiful views.
Beyond the terrace is a gently sloping lawn with manicured gardens, a greenhouse, and ample room for a pool and sizable allotments subject to consent.
The property features off-street parking for two vehicles as well as an attached double garage.
