The hall floor garden flat at 39 Royal York Crescent presents an almost unique opportunity; providing buyers with an exquisite circa 1280 sq. ft period apartment, complete with the majestic splendour of the “hall floor” features and the benefit of a private walled garden behind.

Over the past few years the current owners have meticulously refurbished the property to provide a near turn-key opportunity in the heart of Clifton village.

On entering, the reception room is sublime; some 450 sq. ft in itself it enjoys high ceilings, ornate period cornice work, a herringbone parquet floor, period fire surround and twin shuttered sash windows with far reaching views. A truly elegant space, with natural light flooding in throughout the day and, opening via the original recessed bi-folding wooden doors, into the kitchen to create in total a fabulous circa 40' full-depth entertaining space.

The kitchen benefits too from the stylish parquet flooring and is an unashamedly modern kitchen, sitting comfortably against the period features of the Grade II Listed apartment. A large triple sash window overlooks the rear garden and, like the reception room, floods the space with light. There is an expanse of workspace and floor & wall mounted storage cupboards, along with a ceramic hob and electric oven & grill. In addition, there is an integrated dishwasher, fridge and freezer and plenty of space for informal dining table and chairs.

To the rear an inner lobby (also with access to the communal entrance hall) leads to the first of the two double bedrooms. It also gives access to the hall floor shower room, complete with a walk-in shower, low level w.c, wash basin and a casement window for fresh air and natural light.

To the rear the dual aspect double bedroom is currently dressed as a home office, with French doors leading out into the garden. This is a charming room, and could easily revert back to a bedroom.

Upstairs, also to the rear overlooking the garden, lies the second bedroom and shower room. The shower room is accessed from the landing (which also has access to the communal half-landing) and comprises an enclosed shower cubicle, low level w.c and a washbasin.

The bedroom behind follows the same footprint as below, with a lovely light-filled dual aspect and view out over the rear garden.

Outside:

To the rear of the apartment is a superb private garden; walled to three sides and deceptively deep. Nearest to the house is a decked terrace; perfect for an al-fresco coffee or morning breakfast, with shallow steps leading up to a level lawn with mature borders and year-round colour and form.

To the very rear of the garden lies a paved dining terrace, positioned to catch as much of the day' sun as possible and a perfect BBQ spot.

Royal York Crescent itself has the benefit of a well-maintained communal garden stretching for almost the full-width of the crescent, and accessed via several gates leading into it. The communal garden is laid mostly to lawn, with richly planted mature borders, specimen trees and informal outdoor dining tables, chairs and benches dotted throughout.

It is a beautiful quiet space in the heart of Clifton and without doubt one of the best communal gardens in the area – hosting (when allowed) resident only events as well as opening up as part of the Clifton Open Garden Squares Weekend.
