"I love the peace and vista of looking out of my living room window, or contemplating the evening from my balcony"

The Home

Occupying a second-floor position within the sought-after Graveney Apartments at the County Cricket Ground development, this beautifully presented two-bedroom apartment enjoys one of the most distinctive outlooks in Bristol. With uninterrupted views across the historic cricket ground, generous proportions and an abundance of natural light, it offers contemporary living in a setting that is both peaceful and remarkably well connected.

Accessed via lift or stairs, the apartment opens into a welcoming central hallway that provides a natural flow through the accommodation. A useful utility cupboard keeps the practicalities of everyday living neatly tucked away, while the principal living space unfolds beyond.

The open-plan kitchen, dining and sitting room is undoubtedly the heart of the home. Floor-to-ceiling glazing frames ever-changing views across the County Ground, drawing natural light deep into the apartment and creating a remarkable backdrop throughout the seasons. Whether watching a match unfold on a summer afternoon or simply enjoying the openness of the outlook, it is a space that feels both uplifting and surprisingly tranquil.

The contemporary kitchen sits comfortably within the room, thoughtfully designed with integrated appliances and ample storage, allowing it to function equally well for everyday living and entertaining.

To the rear, two generous double bedrooms provide a welcome sense of calm, both benefitting from fitted wardrobes. The principal bedroom enjoys the added convenience of an en-suite shower room, while a beautifully finished family bathroom serves the remainder of the apartment.

Throughout, the apartment has been exceptionally well maintained, creating a home that feels considered, comfortable and ready to enjoy from day one.

Outside

Stepping onto the private balcony, the apartment's unique position becomes immediately apparent. Overlooking the cricket square, it provides a front-row seat to one of Bristol's most iconic sporting venues, while also offering a wonderfully open outlook that changes beautifully throughout the year.

Further benefits include secure underground allocated parking, a communal cycle store and well-maintained shared areas throughout the development.

Positioned just a short walk from St Andrews Park and the independent cafs, restaurants and shops of Gloucester Road, this is a home that combines the ease of modern apartment living with one of the city's most distinctive outlooks.
