The first impressions of Electricity House are dramatic; beautiful architecture sensitively restored and approached via the pedestrianised entrance opposite Bristol's Cenotaph.
Double doors open automatically, and the beautiful communal entrance hall has been refurbished to reveal its Art-Deco splendour – with a central desk for the 7 day a week concierge and private post-boxes for each apartment.
The option of two lifts (or the stairs) take you up to the fifth floor, with 585 accessed from the communal hall looking down into the dramatic full height central atrium below.
On entering, the light in 585 is excellent – benefitting from the apartment's south facing orientation and subsequent “thermal gain”. The property enjoys air conditioning across each floor (for the vey hot days) to add to the apartment's long list of creature comforts.
On the fifth floor lie both double bedrooms. These are each well-appointed and benefit from fitted wardrobes along with access out onto the full width 25' paved roof terrace.
This is a superb feature; south-facing and looking directly across to Nick Walker's inspiring street art whilst simultaneously taking in Bristol city centre's amazing architecture. Truly uplifting.
Both bedrooms share a fitted bathroom accessed from the entrance hall. The bathroom is fully tiled with a three piece suite comprising a panelled bath with a thermostatic shower above, w.c and wash basin as well as heated towel rail and vanity mirror.
Within the hallway is a useful recessed storage cupboard, perfect for keeping coats and boots out of the way and the hallway itself clear of clutter.
A striking oak and glass staircase leads to the sixth floor and opens up into a spectacular light-filled sitting room, with a full width wall of windows overlooking the cityscape and street art. This room too benefits from its own independent air conditioning along with an oversized sliding glazed door opening really brining the outside in, and protected from inside by a glazed safety screen.
Like the rest of the apartment the room benefits from underfloor heating and a tiled floor, with access to a fully fitted utility cupboard also housing the heating and hot water controls.
A peninsular island separates the sitting room from the kitchen whilst also providing a breakfast bar and casual dining space. The kitchen itself is fully fitted with an expanse of stone worksurfaces and fitted floor and wall-mounted storage.
Integrated appliances include a fridge and freezer, Bosch dishwasher, Bosch ceramic hob and wall mounted AEG oven and grill and a separate microwave combi.
Located on the second floor and accessed from the communal hallway is a useful private and secure storage pod. Perfect for suitcase / holiday equipment, sports kit and long term filing etc.
585 has access to a private southerly facing circa 25' paved roof terrace, catching much of the day's sun and enjoying fabulous city views. There is plenty of space for a dining table and chairs as well as gas oven or grill.
Situated on the lower ground floor is an allocated off-street parking space with lift access to the floors above.
