House For Sale £410,000
Bankside Road, Brislington

"We were drawn to the unique character of this house and were taken by the fact that there is nothing else quite like it. We like that whenever people visit their reaction is always of 'wow' when they see inside!
There are of course also great benefits of an eco-house, not least with the present energy crisis of how it has kept our bills low. It's worked as both a house for social occasions with its large living space flowing through huge glass doors into a suntrap of a garden, but also as a family home where our son has grown up.
With a school literally at the end of the road, a number of good pubs, and Sandy Park high street just a short walk away, we've loved becoming part of the Brislington community. As well as the fact with Arnos Vale, Nightingale Valley, Victory Park and Eastville Farm, there are an array of good dog walks and great green areas all within walking distance. We will really miss this house and wish we could transport it with us as we make the move to Devon."

Bankside Road is a quiet road of houses located between Wick Road and School Road. The area is just a short walk to shops and the amenities of Sandy Park Road and Wells Road, with popular independents such as the Deli @ Sandy Park with Bocabar at Paintworks and Avonmeads Retail Park also a short journey away. Also close by is Arnos Court park, which provides a great area for runners and dog-walkers, while those looking for more of an escape from the city, the proximity of the nearby Wells Road allows ease of access to North East Somerset and Chew Valley. A huge draw to the area is that semi-rural feel when venturing out towards Conham River Park, Eastwood Farm, and the ever-popular Beeses that sits overlooking the river Avon. For commuters, this area is very well placed, just a short distance from Bristol City Centre and Bristol Temple Meads Station. The popular Holymead Primary School is just at the end of the road, making the location ideal for young families.
