Raglan Road, Bishopston

'We’ve loved living on Raglan Road for the past eight years, creating a family home and bringing up our two children, who have both enjoyed the excellent primary and secondary schools here. We have made a lot of improvements to the house over the years, creating warm and homely living spaces and a brand new kitchen-dining area. The community feeling on the street is amazing with active social groups, an extremely helpful WhatsApp group and the friendliest neighbours. Our house is at the top of the road so you have all the benefits of the busy and vibrant Gloucester Road shops, restaurants and bars but with very quiet surroundings. St Andrew’s Park, Redland Green and Horfield Common are all a short walk away. We hope this house gives its new owners as much happiness as it has provided our family!'
