"Gloucester Road gives you so many options for food and drink. We’ve had many fun nights at the Inn on the Green and Blue Lagoon to name a few, as well as countless delicious brunches at Fed! The road itself is lovely and quiet and being next to Horfield Common has been perfect for walking our dog. The Ardagh Community Centre has regular street food nights which we’ve loved, as well as free use of tennis courts and a café. Living on St Leonards Road has been everything we hoped it would be!"
The home
A stylish two bedroom ground floor, garden flat, on St Leonards Road in Horfield, with a private entrance and generous rear garden, backing onto playing fields. The front door leads into an open plan living/dining area which is neutrally decorated, with a brightly coloured kitchen attached. At the front of the flat is a spacious double bedroom, benefitting from a large bay window providing warm, natural light. To the back of the property there is a contemporary bathroom suite, boasting pops of colour. The second double bedroom is similar to the first in size. It has good storage potential and leads directly to the private courtyard through French doors.
The outside space
St Leonards Road is a quiet cul-de-sac and the front door to Number 32 is at the end of a path, on the side of the property, away from the street. The courtyard area is in the centre of the flat and can be accessed from the living room and second bedroom. Hidden from view, until you round the corner from the courtyard, is a lovely raised rear garden, which offers a lawn, patio, and a Bristol inspired mural which adds colour to the side of the building. Greenery borders the garden, adding to the privacy.
