High Street, Staple Hill, BS16 5HN

"I love the high ceilings, the amazing morning light in the bedrooms - waking up and seeing the view out of the bedroom window.

Eating homegrown fruit and veg and lazy summer BBQs in the summer in the sun-washed garden, followed by the tranquility found on evenings-in in the sitting room.

Living so close to the lovely Page Park is such a bonus, as well as stunning nature-filled walks down by the river at Snuff Mills, not to mention fresh sourdough and coffee from Wild Yeast just over the road!" The Home A beautifully restored Victorian maisonette, rich in period charm and thoughtfully updated for modern living, complete with a private rear garden and share of freehold.

Arranged over two floors above commercial premises on Staple Hill High Street, this unique home offers an appealing blend of original character, considered design and practical improvements.

The first-floor sitting room is a particularly inviting space, with large double-glazed sash windows retaining their original wooden frames.

Bespoke shelving provides an attractive focal point, while the period details add to the room’s character.

Soundproofing beneath the carpet offers an additional layer of comfort, making this a lovely space to relax or entertain.

The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed with a range of Howdens units featuring solid wood doors, complemented by generous wooden worktops and a practical layout.

A Kenwood electric oven, gas hob and Smeg extractor fan complete the space, while the durable Invictus flooring has been chosen with everyday practicality in mind.

The kitchen also benefits from a Worcester boiler, installed in 2021.

There are two bedrooms arranged across the upper floor, offering flexibility for couples, small households, guests or those working from home.

Original floorboards, carefully restored throughout much of the property, and period pine doors sourced to complement the building’s character bring a sense of continuity to the accommodation.

The bathroom has a clean, contemporary finish, with a walk-in shower, WC and wash basin, complemented by attractive patterned floor tiles and natural wood detailing.

Throughout the maisonette, the balance of original features and modern upgrades is evident. The property was replastered, fully rewired and replumbed in 2021, while the roof was replaced in 2019.

The front door and rear windows have been upgraded to double-glazed uPVC units, with secondary glazing also installed to the sitting room windows.

The Outside One of the standout features of this home is its private rear garden.

Enclosed by timber fencing, the space offers a welcome outdoor retreat, with established planting beds and room to enjoy a morning coffee, grow your own plants or entertain friends during the warmer months.
