" Welcome to 51 Brunswick Road, a stunning example of a Grade II listed Regency family home that in recent years has undergone renovation to the main body of the home, and so today presents a wonderful four-double bedroom family home with accommodation arranged over five floors and, subject to planning permission, offers the ability to create a self-contained, one-bedroom basement apartment.

Located in the heart of the city, the property is minutes from the city centre, Gloucester Quays, and the world-famous Gloucester Docks. Gloucester Quays, created in recent years, is a hub of activity and enjoys an array of shops from national retailers, along with restaurants, bars, and a cinema.

Furthermore, Gloucester enjoys a wealth of schools, which include Kings, Denmark Road for Girls, The Crypt, and Ribston Hall. The city is surrounded by beautiful countryside, including Robinswood Hill Country Park, and access for commuters can be found on the M5 from Junction 11 to Junction 12, giving both northbound and southbound access.

Returning to the home, the accommodation is well proportioned, with all five floors flowing neatly into one another. Stepping into the entrance hall gives a sense of what one will enjoy as you walk through the property: painted wooden floorboards, intricate cornicing, and high ceilings.

From the entrance hall, doors to your right take you into the two main rooms on this floor. The first is the formal dining room, which is found at the front of the house and has a feature fireplace, giving a wonderful focal point to the room.

An opening to the rear of the dining room leads you neatly into the modern fitted kitchen, which benefits from granite work surfaces, a wealth of fitted cupboards, and a host of integrated appliances. From the kitchen, a further door leads neatly to an elongated room, which is currently being used for storage as the room is an empty space, but we feel this would be the perfect place for the utility and cloakroom to be located.

The final room on the ground floor is the garden room, which is found at the end of the entrance hall and, as one would expect, enjoys an elevated view over the garden.

Moving upstairs, the first floor houses the first double bedroom, located to the rear of the home, while at the front, the living room features a central chimney breast where a wood-burning stove is housed. The room is also flooded with natural light due to the two floor-to-ceiling sash windows, which lead neatly onto the balcony while also allowing one to enjoy the view over the neighbouring Brunswick Square

The second floor features the master bedroom, which, like the room below, enjoys plenty of light and extended views over the square and the city. Located behind the master bedroom is a walk-in wardrobe and the first of the two bathrooms the home enjoys. The bathroom is very much in keeping with the style and property era and features a four-piece white suite and furthermore, benefits from underfloor heating

On the upper floor is another double bedroom located at the front of the property, while to the rear is the second family bathroom.

All the floors are linked by the cantilever stairwell, which is highly impressive. All the landings are also very light, and this is due to the elongated window that cascades over the floors, also giving a wonderful overview of the garden and city beyond.

The final floor is that of the basement level, and it is here that we feel there is the option to create a one-bedroom self-contained apartment, subject to obtaining the relevant planning permission. While the lower level is accessed via the main entrance hall, there is separate external access to the floor from the rear garden

There are two large rooms on the floor, with the first located at the front of the building. Currently used as an artist`s studio, the room is also the home`s fourth double bedroom and benefits from natural light from the window to the front elevation and a fitted wardrobe.

The second room, an internal room, is currently used as a second sitting room, and this would remain if the lower level were to be converted to a self-contained apartment. Off the living room, a door leads to an additional room that has light, power, and plumbing, and we would suggest that this is the perfect space to fit a kitchen.

To the rear of this room is an area that also benefits from light, power, and plumbing and would be the perfect size for a three-piece family bathroom or shower room.

Outside, there is an enclosed, walled garden that is full of plants and shrubs and a mature apple tree. At the head of the garden is the detached garage, which has pedestrian access from the garden, while at the front entrance, there is an electric up-and-over door. In addition, within the garage is an electric charging point.
