"What we’ve loved most about this house is the way the light moves through every room - it has always felt so bright and welcoming. Being so close to the park has been a real bonus too and means we can watch the trees from the kitchen window when doing the washing up. The open-plan layout has been amazing for hosting, with many kitchen discos and cocktails out in the garden on summer evenings while the kids sleep upstairs. The proximity of the bike path also means that getting into the city centre for work is quick and easy. Having all the cafés and shops in Easton and along Church Road nearby means there’s always something going on — you’re never bored in BS5."
The home
A stylish and well-designed three bedroom home on Stretford Road, within touching distance of St George's Park. This spacious family home is arranged over three floors and is ideal for modern family living. The ground floor is centred around an impressive open-plan living space, extending the full depth of the house and providing distinct areas for relaxation, dining and cooking. The doors at the rear lead out to the small but well-presented courtyard garden, with the garage/utility room providing plenty of storage.
The first floor has two bedrooms, alongside a pretty family bathroom. Occupying the top floor is a generous main bedroom, offering a sense of separation and privacy from the rest of the house. The windows offer great views over the park. The overall layout provides excellent flexibility for growing families or those needing dedicated work-from-home space.
Outside
There is a small but well-presented courtyard garden and a garage with access from the road at the side of the house. The garage is currently used for storage and laundry but can fit a car for secure off-road parking. From the garden you can see the park and the orientation means it gets a lovely amount of sun in warmer months.
There is side access on Stretford Avenue to the garden at the rear and garage.
Living in Whitehall
Stretford Road is situated in Whitehall, in between Whitehall Road and St George's Park. The area has always been popular with families due to the ‘Outstanding’ Whitehall Primary school, whilst increasingly in high demand with young professionals in recent years. Whitehall Road has nice eateries including Bristol Spirit and venues like The Red Lion. Church Road is a home to a number of popular shops and cafes such as Loaf, Southville Deli, Bristol Loaf and Grounded Café, restaurants such as The Lock Up and pubs such as the Dark Horse and Old Stillage. St Marks Road in Easton is only a short walk away and also boasts a range of well-regarded venues such as No.12 Provisions, Bristol Sweet Mart and G Bros Pizza. Esme's and Garden of Easton both in Easton, are also very close by. The proximity of the large, Victorian St George's Park is also a huge benefit to local residents and offers a great retreat from city life on a summer's day. The sportier of the local residents can take advantage of the Whitehall Athletics Arena through Bristol and West AC who are based there. For those needed access away from Bristol, the property is very close to the Bristol to Bath Railway Path and just a short drive from Junction 2 of the M32, which in turn leads to the M4. Bristol Temple Meads train station is also just a short journey by car, bike or train from the local Lawrence Hill Station.
