4 Bedroom House - Terraced
"We bought this house as newly weds and have lovingly renovated it into what is now a wonderful family home. We both love the outdoors and particularly enjoyed landscaping the garden together which has become an extension of the house with the two year old kitchen extension. Spring here is really beautiful with the cherry tree blossoming. It has been really special bringing up kids here. St Werburghs is such a close knit community with a village-like feel and we have made friends for life!"
The Home
A simply beautiful four bedroom terraced home with a stylish, polished finish and wonderful homely vibe. The property has been painstakingly improved to provide exceptional space, natural light and an attention to detail that resonates through every room with sustainability and energy efficiency at it’s heart. Walking through the front door into the hallway you know immediately that this is going to be a special home, with stylish stripped floors and a warmth to the interior decor. The bay fronted lounge has a lovely feel, with an exposed brickwork fireplace with slate hearth that houses a log burner, perfect for cosy evenings in the winter with the family. The rear of the house has been opened up with a impressive, full-width extension to create an exquisite open plan living area with quartz top kitchen units and island. Light pours through the South West facing Bi-Fold doors and Velux windows creating a soft transition and flow onto the garden which has been lovingly planted and maintained by its current custodians. The ground floor is rounded off by a useful downstairs loo. On the first floor are two excellent double bedrooms with original fireplace and built in wardrobes in the rear facing room as well as a good sized fourth bedroom. The first floor is complimented with a guest/kids bathroom. The loft extension is the finest I've seen in St. Werburghs, so much larger and lighter than you will see in Victorian homes in the area with great head height, bespoke solid oak eaves storage and an upcycled vintage vanity unit. Alongside this there is a cleverly designed en-suite bathroom. The views across the rooftops are gorgeous with the highlight being the Climbing Church’s spire complete with nesting Ravens.
The Outside
These gardens are some of the largest and finest in St. Werburghs. The garden boasts a sunny South West aspect and a level of privacy seldom seen in the area. Walking through the Bi-Fold doors from the Kitchen you instantly feel in nature, with a flagstone sunken patio area for hosting friends, a large lawn with several well stocked flower beds and a flagstone pathway leading to home office/utility at the end of the garden - an invaluable addition for modern hybrid working. A mature Lime tree provides even more privacy come the Spring/Summer. This is an exceptional outside space that is able to be enjoyed by kids and grown-ups equally. The front garden houses an attractive bike and bin store topped with a green roof of alpines and succulents.
Living in St Werburghs
St Werburghs Road is one of the quietest and most sought after roads in the area tucked away on the Western fringe of St Werburghs bordering Ashley Hill and Montpelier. The road gets very little through traffic but is only a short stroll away from everything the area has to offer and a stone’s throw from the green space provided by Narroways Nature Reserve, the allotments and the City Farm. St Werburghs is home to a number of popular cafes, shops and attractions including The Better Food Company shop, Napolita Café. Excellent restaurants including Namak and Clouds as well as several excellent pubs plus Wiper & True Tap Room and Fierce and Noble Brewery. The St Werburghs City Farm and Café is well known throughout the city and combined with Purple Patch Market Garden and Cafe Chez Candice is a good example of the area’s individuality and independence from surrounding suburbs. St Werburghs Primary School and Nursery school are both very central to the community and have a good reputation (both Ofsted Good), enhancing the pull of the area to families. The Church Climbing Academy is less than a minute’s walk from St Werburghs Road and Bloc Climbing - the largest bouldering centre in Bristol - is situated at the end of Mina Road. The area’s popularity derives from its sense of community, but also from its close proximity to Bristol City Centre, Easton and Gloucester Road. The nearby M32 makes the area ideal for commuters, providing easy access to Bristol Parkway and the M4/M5 as well as providing connectivity to spectacular landscapes such as the Brecon Beacons, the Cotswolds and the Mendip Hills.
