The property benefits from double glazing throughout.
The hall floor is accessed via the original front door, allowing for an impressive entrance vestibule, and then into the hallway, which forms the heart of this fabulous property.

Both bedrooms on the Hall Floor are very large doubles, and enjoy luxurious ensuite facilities. For convenience there is a cloakroom.
The Ground floor level, which can be accessed either via a staircase from the Hall or the rear porch, can offer self contained accommodation for family or a career, or indeed could be reintroduced to the apartment as a third bedroom, utility and snug. There is also a useful sizable storage area, which leads to the large garage.
The rear walled private garden of this wonderful property enjoys sun throughout the day in different areas imaginatively created by the current owner. The raised sundeck enjoys afternoon and evening sun ideal for entertaining.

Centrally there is a large level lawned area surrounded by a wealth of mature trees, shrubs and plants. To the front of the property there is also a small garden.
To the front of the property is a shared driveway with allocated parking for a car, in front of the large integral garage with power, light and an automatic up and over door.

Sneyd Park is situated on the edge of the open expanse of the Clifton Downs forming 400 acres of city openness. The Downs create a natural division between the subject property and the historic suburb Clifton as well as a dramatic viewpoint across the Avon Gorge. Sneyd Park offers many practicalities over and above some of the neighbouring residential areas especially for those seeking larger gardens and ease of car parking. There are many state and private sector schools in the area which include Elmlea, Westbury Park, Badminton School, Redmaids School, Bristol Grammar School, Clifton College and Clifton High School.
