Description:

This three-bedroom Grade II-listed terrace house is a fine example of Georgian architecture in Bristol’s Cotham and Redland Conservation Area. Unfolding behind an elegant 18th-century façade, the house spans 2,000 sq ft over five storeys, where light pours in through sash windows to illuminate original carved fireplaces, niches and decorative moulding. Gardens at the front and the rear of the house are lush with rambling roses, magnolia and clematis. An abundance of independent shops, grocers and cafés on Cotham Hill are within a few minutes’ walk from the house, as are local train stations with services to Temple Meads, from which trains run to London in just over an hour and a half. Setting the Scene The area of Cotham was largely laid to pasture until the middle of the 18th century, when small groups of houses emerged on hilltop sites, surrounded by deep valleys and grasslands. The development of Cotham Vale, which follows a historic route along field boundaries, began in the late 18th century and continued throughout the decades that followed. The resulting streetscape is characterised by a collection of late Georgian villas and Victorian terraces with facades of Pennant sandstone and traditional Bath limestone. For more information, please see the History section. The Grand Tour Entry to the house is from a front patio planted with fragrant honeysuckle and a ‘Buff Beauty’ rose. The front door is beneath a pedimented surround and is topped with an original arched petal fanlight. Behind is a timber-panelled hallway adorned with moulded arches, where walls are painted in ‘Oxford Stone’ by Farrow and Ball. An original six-panelled door opens to the sitting room at the front of the plan. The elegantly proportioned room is finished with ‘French Grey’ by Farrow & Ball, and original boards of stained pine run underfoot. Light is drawn in through the panes of an eight-over-eight.
