House For Sale £450,000
York Road, Easton

'I loved the house's original features, but it was the light that made me fall for it. The work we've done in recent years has been all about keeping the character but enhancing the brightness of spaces, making the whole back of the house and garden flow. From the loft the view out to the Dundry Hill and sunset over the cricket ground is pretty beautiful too!'

York Road is a terraced street within this vibrant residential area of the city. Easton is renowned for its distinctive character and community spirit, and boasts a host of local amenities, attractions and community events that draw many visitors from outside the area. The area is well connected to the city centre and beyond by bike, road and train. The M32 and the A431 to Bath are both easily accessible. The area is also home to a number of Bristol's finest independent shops and eateries, hugely popular with locals and visitors alike. Situated along St Marks Road are Bristol Sweet Mart, Thali Café, East Bristol Bakery, and The Garden of Easton. Also close by are No 12 Café, The Greenbank pub, Este Kitchen, Matter Wholefoods, and Public Market. This house is a nine-minute walk away from Whitehall Primary School which is consistently rated 'outstanding' by Ofsted, while May Park is a similarly well-regarded local option. Also close by are Easton Leisure Centre, Easton Cowboys and Cowgirls Sports Club and the Bristol Hawks Gymnastics Club, a city-wide family activity attraction. The area offers a surprising wealth of green spaces including the Greenbank Cemetery, the parks at Eastville and St George, and riverside walks along the nearby Frome Valley, and just minutes from the house is the locally cherished Bristol to Bath Cycle Path, ideal for commuting quickly into the city centre or just for weekend strolls, long runs or bike rides.

The house itself has been cleverly extended to the rear and into the loft, to create a spacious and smartly finished home. The house measures in excess of 1200 square feet, arranged over three stories. The hub of the house is a stylish kitchen/diner, which has a south-facing aspect. For a contrasting choice of space, the ground floor also offers a cosy bay-fronted living room. On the first floor there are two double bedrooms and a bathroom. The top floor is a master bedroom, with en-suite shower room. From the back of the house there are brilliant views to the south and around to the city centre. The house is offered to the market with no onward chain.
