Royal York Crescent is an address held in extremely high regard. This is owed to the uniquely convenient proximity to Clifton Village and superb examples of Georgian and Victorian architecture including some of the city’s most prized and widely admired terraces and squares. This Grade II Listed Georgian terrace of forty six houses was started by James Lockier in 1791. Once reported to be the longest terrace in Europe at 390 meters, these grand houses all enjoy access from a raised promenade above vaulted cellars.
The variety of shops, boutiques and restaurants in Clifton Village are within only quarter of a mile level distance as well as several bus routes providing easy city centre access. Indeed, Bristol’s City Centre itself is within only one and a half miles allowing access to the national motorway network via the M32 and rail links to London Paddington from Bristol Temple Meads mainline station. The vast expanse of Clifton’s Downs are within quarter of a mile as is the historic landmark of Isambard Kingdom Brunel’s world famous suspension bridge spanning the Avon Gorge (in itself, a designated area of special scientific interest and natural beauty). The area is particularly well served for schooling in both state and private sectors with Clifton College being within three quarters of a mile of the subject property.

This beautifully presented and conveniently situated property offers a fantastic sense of open living space with a full length kitchen/dining/living space enjoying a south facing aspect, flooded with natural light through large sash windows.
