2 bedroom terraced house for sale

" The community on the street is like no other I've known; vibrant, loving and fun, are the first three words that spring to mind. Over the years we've had lots of street parties, Many of us neighbours have been here for 20+ years now! I've ploughed a lot of love into this house. It's been refurbished from top to bottom and I like to think that the next person, or family, will love it as much as I have done. The garden and kitchen/diner are probably my favourite parts. The light is gorgeous and floods into the kitchen. It's a sunny, private garden, many say it's like an 'oasis' in the city. It's tranquil, fragrant and beautiful, and I will miss it very much."

Balmain Street is placed to the east of Totterdown and adjacent to the beautiful Arnos Vale Cemetery.

Green spaces are in plentiful supply, with Arnos Vale being an idyllic Victorian garden cemetery with the cafe run by the trust at its heart, the incredible views from Perrett Park, as well as the 50 acres of Victoria Park. Totterdown offers easy access to and from the city, with Bath Road offering an easy link to Bath, the Portway taking you to the M5 and the M32 to the M4 and beyond. Temple Meads Train Station is also a short walk or cycle away, offering connections nationally. Travelling southwards, you find yourself in the Mendips, an area of outstanding natural beauty.
