"Our home truly adapts to the seasons, open and bright in the summer, yet cosy and welcoming in the winter. There’s a wonderful sense of community and with Sandy Park just a short stroll away, great coffee is always close at hand.”
The Home
This two-bedroom, double bay-fronted Victorian terraced home offers a real sense of warmth throughout. The ground floor features an open-plan living and dining area, with the two spaces flowing nicely into one another. A well-proportioned and light-filled kitchen extension enhances the property further, creating excellent overall ground-floor living space. Original features such as the wooden flooring, ceiling rose, and cornicing complement the contemporary log burner and open feel to the downstairs space beautifully, striking a balance between period character and modern living. A traditional archway nook within the dining area provides good storage for coats, shoes, and everyday items.
Upstairs, both bedrooms are generously sized, with the front bedroom benefiting from a bay window that adds space and natural light. The four-piece family bathroom is particularly spacious and includes both a bath and a separate shower. All rooms on this floor feel well-proportioned and are arranged well.
The Outside
The South-West facing garden is a real sun trap during the summer months and has recently been enhanced with new decking. An outbuilding located at the end of the garden offers excellent potential for conversion into a home office, gym, or studio space.
Living in Brislington
Situated in a lovely pocket of houses in Brislington, this property is within walking distance of several well-regarded shops and cafes including Kin and Deli at Sandy Park. Paintworks is also just a short walk and is home to Miro Lounge and Coffee Club. Hop Union and Lost & Grounded are nationally renowned Bristol breweries with tap rooms, both of which are within walking distance. Further amenities are available with a large Sainsbury's just a five minute walk away and a Lidl, Aldi, and an M&S all within easy reach.
The area is popular with young professionals and families, being both close to the city centre but also accessible to several parks and larger green areas, such as the Nightingale Valley Nature Reserve and St Anne's Wood. Arnos Vale Cemetery is just a short walk away and there are fairly extensive footpaths around the River Avon, which wrap around Brislington through some scenic spots, which includes the popular Beese’s Riverside Bar to the east. The area is also home to several good schools, such as Hollymead and Broomhill Primary. For commuters, Brislington is well placed, with several buses running through the area including the Park & Ride and the number 1 located within 150 meters of the front door which runs into the centre of town and then up to Cribbs Causeway. There are also plenty of routes for cycling and walking to Bristol City Centre.
