An immaculately presented period home situated in a prime location within the heart of Bishopston. This three bedroom home has been presented to the highest of standards by its current owners and has plenty to offer including an open plan kitchen/diner, separate reception room with wood-burning stove, a contemporary family bathroom and a south facing landscaped rear garden with open aspect.
Accommodation on the ground floor comprises; Main vestibule entrance and hallway that leads on to a living room complete with double glazed bay window, ceiling rose, cornice and a wood-burning stove with floating oak mantle. Next door, the second reception and kitchen have been completely opened up in order to create the heart of this impressive home. The dining room has ample space for a large dining table, and a cast-iron original fireplace with solid oak surround acts as the main focal point for this light and bright family space. The spacious kitchen features an array of contemporary wall and base units with
contrasting work-top and metro style tiled splash-backs. At the end of the kitchen a large Velux window provides plenty of extra natural light whilst a set of double glazed patio doors provide a seamless connection to the sunny rear garden. Further features include plenty of fitted storage and a downstairs w/c incorporated underneath the staircase.
A staircase leads up to the first floor to three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The master bedroom is located at the front and spans the full width of the house, with features such as an original cast-iron fireplace, picture rail and twin double glazed windows providing a pleasant outlook onto Melbourne Road. Adjacent, the family bathroom features a modern white suite with stainless steel fittings and striking tiled splash-backs. A separate walk-in shower, period style radiator and recessed spotlights complete the overall look. Bedroom two sits in the middle of the floor and is currently used as a nursery, whilst bedroom three is another well-proportioned double and benefits from roof-top views across Bishopston and beyond.
Externally, the front of the property benefits from the classic red brick-fronted facade and a variety of neatly kept shrubs, whilst the delightful south facing rear garden has an open aspect and is presented in three sections consisting of a paved patio/seating area and plenty of useful storage into the side return. Beyond, is a laid lawn bordered on both sides by timber planted beds and a shale pathway leads down to the end of the garden, to a raised decked terrace and pergola complete with sail sunshade, perfect for al fresco dining.
Melbourne Road has a real sense of community and enjoys a convenient position in the area, just a short walk from all of the amenities on The Gloucester Road. The property further benefits from being within catchment to both Bishop Road and St Bonaventures Primary Schools as well as the Redland Green APR.
Vendor's Comment's:-
"We have loved every moment of living in this house and on Melbourne Road. The house is a really pleasant and homely place to be, whatever the season. The living room is our favourite place to hunker down and fire up the wood-burning stove on those cold winter days. The kitchen/diner, the heart of the house, is the ideal year-round spot for entertaining and, since having children, a brilliant space for family to eat, play and learn. The garden really is an extension of the house in the hotter months when it becomes both a perfect outdoor play space and a wonderful dining area. We’ve enjoyed many warm summer evenings sat on the deck sharing a meal with friends and family. We moved into the house as an unmarried couple and leave it married with two young children, so naturally our needs and wants have changed considerably over the years. We are so pleased to have been on Melbourne Road and in Bishopston, as they both offer everything we could have ever wanted. There is a real sense of community on the road and up onto Gloucester Road, where it's a stone’s throw to some of the best independent shops, cafes, restaurants and pubs in Bristol (Dave Giles Butchers, Joe’s Bakery, Fed 303, Pawsons greengrocer and The Grace pub to name but a few). There's loads for the kids too, from baby music classes to rugby tots. The house is also within easy reach of some fantastic green spaces, with the Downs and Redland Green a mile or so away and Horfield Common and, our favourite, St Andrew’s Park less than 10 minutes’ walk. We hope the next owners enjoy life in 22 Melbourne Road as much as we have".
