About this property

Situated on one of Uplands’ most prestigious and historic streets, this remarkable Grade II* Listed residence dates back to the 19th century and offers extensive, flexible accommodation arranged over five floors. The property occupies a prominent position directly opposite St. James Gardens, a late Victorian public park established in 1863, renowned for its preserved period character and elegant surrounding architecture.

Approached via a charming front garden enclosed by original iron railings set on a low coursed stone wall, the property features a pathway and side garden leading to an impressive grand entrance door complete with original brass fittings. Internally, the home showcases an abundance of period features, including ornate covings and ceiling roses, servant bells, marble fireplaces, and beautifully detailed decorative wall mouldings.

The accommodation currently comprises three reception rooms, a computer room, and six bedrooms, with the flexibility to create up to eight bedrooms depending on layout and use. This versatility makes the property suitable for a range of lifestyles, including large family living or multi-use accommodation.

The garden also enjoys rear access, leading to a rare double-width detached garage with electric hook-up, a highly desirable feature in this sought-after location.

St. James Gardens is ideally located within easy reach of Uplands Crescent, offering a variety of independent shops, cafés, pubs, and restaurants. Ffynone House School is located approximately 0.1 miles away, further enhancing the appeal of this exceptional home.
