A charming Grade II Listed 19th century cottage arranged over three floors, set in the heart of Westbury-on-Trym village.
The house has been sympathetically renovated and restored by the current owners, creating a beautifully characterful and comfortable home.
The accommodation is well-balanced, with a lounge and dining space, and a separate kitchen on the ground floor. The upper floors provide two double bedrooms and a spacious bathroom.
Outside, there is a private front garden which could also suit off-street parking for a small car, while to the rear is a courtyard garden.
Trym Road is ideally placed for village amenities and access to the city centre, Clifton, and Gloucester Road, with regular bus routes nearby.
Step inside the front door and you are met with a limestone flagstone entrance hall at the foot of the stairs. A doorway leads into the living and dining room, which features a log-burning stove set within the original exposed-brick fireplace. There is a window seat beneath the panel-glazed sash windows, complete with working shutters, along with a useful alcove beneath the stairs for a sofa and chimney breast alcoves for TV and storage. Solid oak flooring completes the room.
At the back of the house, the kitchen features limestone flagstone flooring and shaker-style base units with oak work surfaces, which complement the cottage feel perfectly. The kitchen includes a Belfast sink and slimline dishwasher, with space for a cooker. A bespoke bank of cabinets to the left of the back door provides excellent additional storage and houses the combi boiler.
Head up the stairs to the first floor and you will find the main bedroom and bathroom. The bedroom features a panel-glazed sash window drawing in natural light, while dark-stained original floorboards contrast well against the soft-toned wall colours. Original features include a cast iron fireplace and stone hearth, and bespoke wardrobes have been built into the alcove beside the bed to maximise clothes storage.
The bathroom at the back of the house has been thoughtfully finished and receives plenty of natural light courtesy of the twin windows. Featuring a bath with shower, toilet, traditional heated towel rail and an antique pine washstand with a marble top and surface-mounted basin, it has a wonderful vintage feel while functioning as a modern bathroom.
A further set of stairs leads up to the attic bedroom, which has a cosy feel at the top of the house. The room is large enough for a double bed and benefits from useful eaves storage. Features include a skylight, alcove shelving and sisal carpeting.
Externally, the rear courtyard garden is accessed from the kitchen door. The space includes a flagstone patio, storage shed and a raised decked area at the rear. Beyond the back wall of the garden is Westbury on Trym Parish Church and its surrounding grounds, creating a peaceful and secluded backdrop.
The six cottages within the terrace have rear access via a shared pathway across the back courtyards, approached through a secure gate beneath the coach house at the end of the terrace.
To the front of the house, the enclosed frontage behind wrought iron gates can be enjoyed as a garden or used as an off-street parking space for a small car.
This stunning cottage has been lovingly restored and upgraded and is presented in excellent condition for the next owner. It offers an ideal option for those looking to downsize locally, or for anyone seeking a characterful first home, tucked away in a quiet village setting yet close to the city and surrounding green spaces.
