3 Bed Semi-Detached House, Single Let, Bristol, BS7 0JP, £400,000

"We’ve completely refurbished every inch of the house since we bought it, modernising everything and turning it into a space we’re proud of. The garden is big but secluded, and we’ve had lots of lovely parties with our friends, making pizza in the summer sun. It’s the home we started our family in and will be sad to leave. It’s been great being so close to so many parks for dog walks and, more recently, toddler playground outings. We like walking to FED on Gloucester Road for brunch on the weekends."
