Property description
Latchford House is one of few detached family houses in Clifton, and is situated in a quiet residential location between popular Clifton village and bustling Whiteladies Road. On the doorstep, just some 0.2 miles away, is access to around 400 acres of green open space comprising Clifton and Durdham Downs, with a host of independent bars, restaurants, shops and supermarkets all within half a mile. Bristol is renowned for its high quality of schooling, and Latchford House is within 0.2 miles of St. Johns Primary school, as well as within 0.3 miles of Clifton College Prep, Clifton College and under a mile to Clifton High School. Nearby is also Bristol Grammar School (1.1 miles), QEH (1.2 miles) and Badminton School for Girls (1.4 miles).Over the last few years our clients have hugely enjoyed living in the property, and added further to its appeal. The previously unconverted basement has been transformed into a stunning open plan kitchen / breakfast room running the full depth (some 35) of the house. This has been fitted with a state of the art chefs kitchen, as the current owners run a successful cookery school from the lower ground floor, with plenty of space for dining. This would adapt perfectly to family use however, with views over the front garden and full access from the lower ground floor to the rear garden. In addition, there is a separate study on this floor, as well as generous storage and a cloakroom.Over the hall floor the house has a lovely light entrance hall, via an entrance porch ideal for coats and boots. Two grand reception rooms provide plenty of living and entertaining space, with a secondary kitchen, complete with AGA, opening up further possibilities and also offering access out to the rear garden. Over the upper two floors are five generous double bedrooms presenting a flexible layout for families with two well-proportioned bath / shower rooms.Outside, the current owners have re-landscaped the rear garden to provide easier access from the lower ground floor with a paved area for a dining table and chairs. Both front & rear gardens are laid mostly to lawn, with a useful vegetable garden in the rear. The whole however is fully enclosed providing peace, privacy and safety, and is rounded off by access from Downfield Road to a 25 tandem garage / workshop with rear access directly into the front garden.Overall, this is a superb home presenting a generous footprint in a highly sought after and convenient location.
