2 Bedroom House - Terraced
"A sunny Sunday afternoon, walking down to St Georges park to play boules at the community centre and have drinks in the sun. Walking over to Troopers Hill to watch the balloons glide in the sky. Amazing atmosphere on troopers hill with people and their bonfires, watching the fireworks go up all over Bristol on firework night. A relaxed Saturday morning wandering up to the bakery and sitting in the park with a pastry and my weekly sourdough. Conham River for a run and coffee or the boat to Beeses."
The Home
This charming two-bedroom terraced home, offering a wonderful combination of character, comfort and practicality. Thoughtfully updated by the current owners, the property has been lovingly maintained and is perfectly suited to first-time buyers seeking a home ready to move straight into. The accommodation is bright and welcoming throughout, with a warm and homely feel that is immediately apparent upon entering. The front reception room is a fantastic everyday living space, centred around a feature fireplace and flooded with natural light from a large window overlooking the front aspect. Soft neutral décor and generous proportions create a cosy yet spacious environment, ideal for both relaxing and entertaining.
To the rear of the property, the recently refurbished kitchen has been thoughtfully designed to maximise both style and functionality. Contemporary cabinetry is paired with wooden worktops and modern fittings, while the generous dining area provides plenty of room for hosting friends and family. The space feels wonderfully sociable and forms the heart of the home, with views out towards the garden beyond. A family bathroom serves the remaining accommodation and, together with the en-suite, provides a level of convenience rarely found in homes of this size and style. Upstairs, the property offers two well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, benefitting from the addition of a stylish en-suite shower room which has significantly enhanced the practicality of the home. The room itself enjoys excellent proportions and natural light, creating a calm and comfortable retreat at the end of the day. The second bedroom is another good-sized double and would work equally well as a guest bedroom, nursery or home office.
Throughout the property there is a wonderful balance between period charm and modern improvements. The thoughtful updates undertaken by the current owners have enhanced the home while retaining the welcoming character that makes these St George terraces so popular.
The Outside
The rear garden is a fantastic feature of the property and offers a valuable extension of the living space during the warmer months. Larger than many found in similar homes, it provides a mixture of lawn and seating areas, creating plenty of flexibility for entertaining, gardening or simply enjoying a peaceful afternoon outdoors.
Mature planting and established borders add colour and interest throughout the seasons, while the enclosed nature of the garden creates a private and secure environment. There is ample room for outdoor dining, summer barbecues and family gatherings, making it a space that can be enjoyed year-round.
Living in St George
Air Balloon Road sits just east of St George's Park, one of the city's most popular green spaces, with a children's play area, tennis courts, a cafe, a skate park, and a lake.

Church Road is close by, offering a strong line-up of independents including the Red Church, Orchard Cafe, Bristol Loaf, and The Lock-Up. There are several well-regarded schools nearby, including one just around the corner, making this a popular choice for families. For commuters, the city centre is a short hop by bus, bike, or car, with easy access to Bath, the motorway networks, and Bristol Temple Meads.
