House For Sale £375,000
Maxse Road, Knowle

"The Old School House is like no other place we have lived. With an amazing community within the building we have made lifelong friends with our neighbours. The property itself is full of charm with the huge windows and high ceilings giving you room to breathe whilst being in the busy city. Weekends are spent in Arnos Vale, picking wild garlic or playing football in Redcatch park followed by a pint and a roast sat in the Knowle Pub. With the increasing popularity of Wells Road it is great that Upper Knowle has retained a community feel with a number of independent business still thriving right on the door step."

A wonderful two bedroom maisonette situated in an former school on Maxse Road in the popular pocket of Victorian homes between Wells Road and Bath Road. One of the real benefits of this property is the amount and variety of parks and green spaces within a short distance. Arnos Vale Cemetery, Redcatch Park and Community Garden and Perretts Park with its popular café are all within 10 minutes walk from the house. The expansive Victoria Park and Callington Road Nature Reserve are also nearby, providing brilliant open spaces for the summer or for walking the dog all year round. The area is easily commutable from Bristol City Centre, approximately 30 minutes walk, a short cycle or bus journey down Wells Road. The area also has lots of amenities on the doorstep with Wells Road recently becoming home to more and more popular bars, cafes and restaurants. The Knowle Pub is just a short walk away and is a great spot for a Sunday lunch or a beer in the garden.
