"A beautiful house with sweeping views, I have taken great pride in renovating it, bringing warm and relaxing colours, restored period features, and thoughtful design accents including neutral wool carpets, colourful tiles, gold taps, and atmospheric lighting. I hope the new owner(s) enjoy it as much as I have! With Gloucester Road on the doorstep and St Andrews Park nearby there's always plenty to do!"
The Home
Set in an elevated position on one of St Andrews’ most desirable roads, this beautifully refurbished semi-detached home captures sweeping views across Redland and perfectly blends period character with contemporary design. Behind its handsome façade lies a home full of light, charm, and thoughtful detail — one that feels both timeless and effortlessly modern. Accessed via a side entrance, the ground floor opens into a wonderful open-plan kitchen and dining space — the heart of the home — where original floorboards, leaded lattice windows, and a soft colour palette create a sense of calm and warmth. The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed with a walk-in pantry and plenty of room for cooking and entertaining, while the dining area provides space for family gatherings and dinner parties alike. A convenient WC completes this floor.
A central staircase leads up to the first floor, where elegant new parquet flooring runs throughout. The large front bedroom is flooded with natural light and retains a host of beautiful original features, while across the landing, the spacious sitting room centres around a period fireplace. A glazed extension here opens directly onto the rear garden, creating a seamless flow between inside and out. The top floor houses two peaceful double bedrooms and a beautifully designed bathroom, newly fitted with a clean, contemporary finish.
The Garden
The rear garden has been carefully landscaped to offer raised beds, bursts of greenery, and plenty of space to relax or entertain — a private haven that feels worlds away from the bustle of the city.
Living in St Andrews
North Road is a quiet residential street lined with elegant period homes, just moments from the energy of Gloucester Road. This vibrant pocket of Bristol has a true sense of community, with an array of much-loved independent cafés, pubs, and shops right on the doorstep — from brunch at The Bristolian to coffee at Fed 303 or an evening drink at The Urban Standard. Local favourites like Chance Encounters and Fox & Feather capture the area’s creative and independent spirit.
Families are well-served by a fantastic choice of local schools, including Sefton Park Infants, Fairlawn, and Bishop Road Primary. Green space is always close by — the Victorian charm of St Andrews Park is just a short stroll away, perfect for weekend picnics, while The Downs and Blaise Castle Estate offer expansive open spaces for longer walks. Nature lovers will also enjoy easy access to Narroways Nature Reserve and Purdown for countryside walks right from the city.
For commuters, the area is ideally positioned for access to both the City Centre and North Bristol. Regular buses run along the A38, while Montpelier Station is around a 10-minute walk away, offering direct links to Bristol Temple Meads and beyond.
