Newly renovated 4-bedroom family home, with large south-facing garden, adjacent to park and minutes from buzzy Gloucester rd.

We have lovingly renovated our 1950`s semi-detached house over the last few years. It has 4 bedrooms, sleeping up to 8 people. The house has a large, contemporary open-plan kitchen-diner with concrete worktops, plywood kitchen and a secret pantry! Bifold doors open out onto a deck and south-facing garden with trampoline.

We have two bedrooms with double/king size beds. One in the loft with en-suite and stunning far reaching views over Bristol. The other is our guest room. We then have two kids bedrooms. Each has a small double loft-bed, accessed up steps or ladder. One room has a small double sofa bed, which we can make up for you, and we also have a single aero-bed which can fit in any of the rooms. Family bathroom with bath and shower on first floor.

Our lounge has a cosy dark-green decor, with bio-ethanol fire for cool nights. A utility room with washing machine, dryer and toilet is located off the kitchen.

We are in a lovely spot, backing onto the popular Horfield Common, with a playground, cafe and free tennis courts, whilst less than 10 minutes walk to the Gloucester Rd. A large supermarket is just across the road. We have a driveway, plus plenty of on-road parking opposite.

About the location

We are on the border of Bishopston and Henleaze, minutes away from Gloucester Road, a popular independent stretch of shops and restaurants, where you can spend a relaxing day mooching around, visiting arty gift shops, stopping for coffee and cake, or sampling Bristol craft beers and wines.

Bristol has lots to offer for a break - it`s a lively yet laid-back city bursting with character, heritage and creativity. Go in search of Banksy art, visit the stunning Harbourside and Brunel`s SS Great Britain, walk across the famous Suspension Bridge, discover our music scene or sample the thriving craft beer scene by visiting the many micro-breweries here. Between 30th June and 31st August, there will be a city-wide trail of Wallace & Gromit sculptures to explore too.

A bus stop 1 minute away from the house will take you direct to Clifton Village and Brunel`s famous Suspension Bridge, or pop down to Gloucester Rd for plenty more bus routes direct into the centre for the harbourside, SS Great Britain, museums and shops /restaurants. Cribbs Causeway Mall, Bristol Zoo and The Wave surfing lake are all within 15-20 minutes drive out of town. For those who fancy it, rental electric scooters and bikes are available near the house.
