5 Bed Detached House, Refurb/BRRR, Bristol, BS9 4BP £1,900,000

The second reception room - used primarily as a sitting room - is yet more impressive; offering very generous proportions that are accentuated by windows on three aspects, flooding the room with a mass of natural light. As with the hallway, the original parquet and oak ceiling beams are retained. The view of the rear garden is particularly notable, with a sun room having been commissioned by the family to enjoy the view accessible through double doors.

The dining room is sensibly positioned adjacent to the kitchen, and is fitted with laminate flooring that runs through both rooms. The kitchen, whilst in need of updating, is well-sized and serviceable, and in turn provides access to two utility cupboards. Completing the ground floor is a WC.

First Floor - The first floor comprises five bedrooms, the main bathroom, a WC and a storage cupboard; all of which are accessed from the landing.

The landing is notable due to its size, benefitting from a mass of natural light through an original leaded window that illuminates the space.

The bay-windowed master bedroom occupies a position to the front elevation of the property, benefitting from a dual aspect ensuring natural light floods the spaces through much of the day. The original doorway, picture rails and ceiling beams are in place. UPVC windows with sympathetic leaded glazing are fitted to the front and side elevations.

Bedroom two is located to the rear, and offers a stunning view of the garden to rear. This is a particularly generous bedroom, allowing the owners to fit a shower, WC and basin and well as in-built storage. As is a feature throughout much of the house, the dual aspect nature of the room ensures plentiful natural light throughout the day.

Bedrooms three and four are also double bedrooms, both fitted with uPVC windows, and bedroom five is a single room that would make for an ideal study.

The bathroom is fitted with a three piece suite including bath, basin and shower enclosure and sits adjacent to a storage cupboard and first floor WC.

Rear Garden - Grange Park House boasts what is a tremendous, mature garden offering incredible scope to yet further enhance building on what is in place. Comprising a vast array of gorgeous shrubs and trees, meticulously arranged to provide a beautiful vista from a variety of positions in the garden.

Accessed immediately from both the kitchen and sun room is a patio, complete with small shrubs and housing a garden shed. Beyond here is the main lawn, bordered on both sides by trees and shrubbery - providing real privacy whilst remaining sun-filled.

To the far left hand corner is a portion of garden that has been referred to by the family as The Orchard, and features a range of fruit trees. A spinney is located to the far right hand corner, and both these areas offer a feeling of seclusion set away from the main lawn.
