House For Sale £190,000
Highett Drive, St Jude's

"This was my first home and I felt lucky and excited to be able to move somewhere so bright and spacious, in such a great location. The first 6 months was a labour of love and I have created a space which I am immensely proud of, especially the tiling in the kitchen and hallway. There are so many green spaces which are within walking distance which really helped me get through the lockdowns. I have many wonderful memories and hope that whoever comes next gets as much joy from it as I have"

Highett Drive is located just off of Pennywell Road, close to the increasingly popular Old Market quarter of the centre of Bristol. The property is very well placed for a commute into Bristol City Centre or to Temple Meads on foot or by bike. The Bristol to Bath Cycle Path also begins just a short distance from Highett Drive. At the same time, its proximity to both the M32 and the A431 to Bath make it an ideal spot for many who need frequent access out of the city. Easton is by no means, however, a dormitory neighbourhood and offers an abundance of community areas, events and activities and Highett Drive is central in this popular area. Nearby, St Marks Road boasts a number of Bristol's finest independent shops and restaurants, such as Bristol Sweet Mart and the Thali Café, whilst Stapleton Road and Old Market High Street also offer a good choice. This is a bustling area, with all Bristol has to offer on the doorstep making it ideal for young professionals or those looking to make a shrewd investment.

This two-bedroom maisonette apartment is spread over the second and third floors of a purpose built block of flats. The second floor features a fitted kitchen along with a spacious living room whilst upstairs is comprised of the two double bedrooms and a generously sized bathroom. This property has been updated by the current owner to create a welcoming home in the centre of town. There is ample amounts of storage throughout the property as well as access to a communal carpark for residents.
