"The summer here has been great, we have been hosting family and friends at the weekend for barbecues. The kids enjoy playing games on the grass, and pond-dipping and watching the newts. We live around the garden through all seasons here, and we have just harvested plums, raspberries, and tomatoes! Our neighbours are friendly and we often chat across the hedge. Its a quiet street with no traffic - its not a through road for cars which is a welcome peace from the city centre. In the winter its a cosy home with the wood burning stove, and we recently installed a downstairs loo which stops us waking up the little one in the evenings!"
The Home
This beautifully refurbished semi-detached home is built around a fantastic rear garden. The living room has a log burner and doors to the rear garden, while the dining room which is semi-open plan to the kitchen keeps the ground floor feeling sociable rather than closed off. The kitchen itself is well fitted, with a good run of units and a range cooker, and flows into a utility room that doubles easily as a home office, with a handy downstairs loo also on hand for guests. Upstairs there are three bedrooms and the family bathroom.
The Outside
Outside, the garden has been beautifully landscaped: a large lawn for space to play, a gravelled area at the rear made for dining complete with fire pit, and a pond that draws in a wide variety of wildlife. At the front, there's off-street parking alongside a pretty front garden.
Living in Knowle Park
Queensdale Crescent sits within Knowle Park, one of Bristol's most sought-after residential communities. Green space is one of its real strengths, Knowle Park Primary School sits just across the street, making this a prime spot for families, while The Square nearby offers a local green for community life. Within a ten-minute walk you'll find Redcatch Park and Community Garden, Perretts Park, and Arnos Vale Cemetery with its popular café; further out, Victoria Park and Callington Road Nature Reserve provide even more open space for summer days or year-round dog walks.
The city centre is easily reachable too, around 30 to 40 minutes on foot depending on where you're headed, or a short cycle or bus ride down Wells Road. That road has become one of the area's best assets in its own right, with a growing run of independent shops, bars, cafés and restaurants. And for a Sunday lunch or a drink in the pub garden, The Knowle is just a short walk away.
