2 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

'We think Bromley Road has it all! A quiet, friendly street close to Gloucester Road, with all it's amazing bars, restaurants and independent shops, but also a range of beautiful nearby green spaces. A favourite activity includes walking along the cycle path to St Werburghs, picking up pizza and drinks from local breweries and sitting up on 'the mound' overlooking the city. At home we've enjoyed cosy nights by the fire and hosting bbqs in our sunny garden. We've made so many happy memories here.'

Bromley Road is one of the most recognisable roads in the area, with 1830s cottages lining ones side, opposite the pretty Victorian terrace houses, which are typical of the area. The location of Bromley Road is ideal, with easy access to Gloucester Road, and the city centre. Gloucester Road is one of the longest roads for independent shops, cafes & restaurants in the UK, including a diversity of options such as The Gallimaufry, Joe's Bakery, the highly regarded Fed 303, Better Food and numerous independent butchers, grocers and shops. Ashley Down has a great community feel attracting a variety of different buyers and has recently been particularly desirable with young families due to the popular local Ashley Down School. For those in want of green spaces, Purdown is but a 5-minute walk away, as well as the beautiful St Andrews Park. Buses run every five minutes from Gloucester Road and are also very regular on Ashley Down Road to the City Centre, alongside cycle paths for both cyclists and electric scooter users. If you are in need of great commuter links, the M32 is a short drive away that links to the City Centre, as well as out towards the M4 and M5. The property is also within easy reach of the soon to be opened Ashley Down train station, conveniently connecting the area to Temple Meads, Bristol Parkway and beyond. Springfield Avenue has also recently been shut to through traffic so the road is now primarily used by residents.

This 1830s semi-detached stone cottage perfectly balances its contemporary, yet sympathetic recently updates, with its beautiful character rarely found in such a relatively central part of Bristol. The house offers a choice of living spaces, with an extension to the side of the home making an ideal dining room or office, with doors out to the private garden, with a westerly aspect. There is also an extension to the rear of the house which affords the country-style kitchen more practical space but also creates an open area to enjoy, with skylights bringing in a lot natural light. Throughout the house there are several attractive features bringing out the charm of the old home, including solid wooden beams, pine cottage style doors and an exposed brick fireplace to the back. To the first floor there are two bedrooms and a bathroom which has recently been cleverly reconfigured and refurbished. This is a home which offers the rare benefit of off-street parking
