Balmain Street, Totterdown

"Living on Balmain Street has the perfect mix of being within easy walking distance of Temple Meads, the Harbour and the City Centre, but also having quick access to the countryside and villages of North Somerset. Balmain Street and the surrounding area are part of a truly welcoming community of brilliant, interesting neighbours, surrounded by some great pubs, bars and restaurants whilst always being very quiet and calm. We have enjoyed many a walk and picnic in the amazing green spaces of Arnos Vale Cemetery on our doorstep, and Perrett's Park with its stunning views being so nearby. Having excellent early years facilities and Hillcrest Primary School within walking distance has been wonderful for our little kids, and has made the school run a pleasure, not a chore. Our house has been an oasis, we love having all the windows and doors open and enjoying how bright and airy the space is in the summer, but still cosy and bright with the dual aspect in the winter, and we will cherish the time we spent here."

Balmain Street is placed to the east of Totterdown and adjacent to the beautiful Arnos Vale Cemetery. This quiet street has the best of both worlds, with a fantastic array of cafes, restaurants and independent shops on Wells Road, as well as the open green spaces of South Bristol. Places on Wells Road, such as Fox & West, an independent cafe and greengrocers selling a diversity of local produce, Bank, Totterdown Canteen and Farrow's Fish & Chips offer some of the best options in the city. Green spaces are in plentiful supply, with Arnos Vale being an idyllic Victorian garden cemetery with the cafe run by the trust at its heart, the incredible views from Perrett Park, as well as the 50 acres of Victoria Park. Totterdown offers easy access to and from the city, with Bath Road offering an easy link to Bath, the Portway taking you to the M5 and the M32 to the M4 and beyond. Temple Meads Train Station is also a short walk or cycle away, offering connections nationally. Travelling southwards, you find yourself in the Mendips, an area of outstanding natural beauty.
