Eclectic Interiors in a Historic Bristol Apartment
In a pretty Victorian villa in the Redland Conservation Area in Bristol lies this spacious three-bedroom apartment with eclectic interiors and restored period features.
The current owner renovated and decorated this handsome apartment with interiors in a bold, eclectic style with a rich color palette and by preserving and restoring period features like the restored floorboards, sash windows, and original fireplace surrounds.
The eclectic apartment is located on two floors of the handsome 1870s English villa. The ground floor is home to an open-plan living and dining room and the kitchen. The focal point in the living room is the large floor-to-ceiling bay window with the original shutters overlooking the back garden.
The large windows flood the room with natural light. It is a very cozy room with dark wooden floorboards, walls painted in a sage green hue, and a Victorian fireplace with a wood-burning stove. The architraves, skirting boards, and doors are painted in Farrow & Ball’s ‘Studio Green.’
I love the decorating style in this apartment. Artworks in modern and antique frames hang on the walls.
A few steps down from the dining room gives access to the kitchen extension with a skylight and a glass wall with a door to access the garden.
The kitchen is designed with three forms of bespoke cabinets; on one wall, light cabinets are paired with a granite countertop, the central island is painted in bright orange and features an oak worktop, and the high cabinets are painted in forest green and house the pantry and fridge.
The tiny utility room and dark-painted, vintage-style powder room are located in the hall between the living space and the kitchen.
The three bedrooms are located on the lower ground floor. The master bedroom has a bay window overlooking the garden. The room is painted in a soft pink hue and paired with an antique cane bed.
The second bedroom is a moody space with walls painted in ‘Vardo’ by Farrow and Ball.
The apartment has two bathrooms, one is decorated with Moroccan-inspired shower tiles.
The apartment is listed for £975,000 at Inigo.
