Narroways Road, St Werburghs

"I grew up in the countryside and were it not for the enormous garden and connection to nature you get from living in this position within St Werburghs, I would have left Bristol as soon as my first son was born. I kept trying to leave but the trees and the birdsong were making me stay! It's not just being able to stroll over the nature belt into town or out of it...It's this street. It's the best street in Bristol. We have community and connection."

St Werburghs is home to a number of popular cafes, shops and amenities, including The Better Food Company store, Undercover Rock-climbing centre in St Werburghs Church and Wiper & True brewery. The area’s popularity derives in a large part from its sense of community, but also from its close proximity to Bristol City Centre, Greenbank and Cheltenham Road. The nearby M32 makes the area ideal for commuters, providing easy access to Bristol Parkway and the M4. St Werburgh's Primary School and St Werburghs nursery both have a great reputation, enhancing the pull of the area to families. Busses connect to various areas on nearby Glenfrome road, just a two minute walk from the property. The local allotments, Boiling Wells and St Werburghs city farm are a good example of the area’s individuality and independence from surrounding suburbs.

This sizeable and stylish two/three bedroom terraced property on a quiet cul-de-sac combines ample green space with the plentiful amenities of St Werburgh’s, an area in high-demand and home to many young families and professional couples. The unusually large rear garden is a great feature and the sense of community amongst the residents of Narroways road is hard to find. There is immediate access to Narroways Nature Reserve and the St Werburghs City Farm and cafe are close by.

From the front door, the stripped floorboards in the entrance hall lead through to the cosy living room to your left, with pops of colour and an attractive log burner. Moving through the hallway, the open plan kitchen/dining area has a second log burner with spacious alcove shelving either side. The contemporary kitchen adds a stylish touch to this period property and is well lit by a Velux window. A useful lean to opens through glazed doors from the dining area to the impressive garden; beginning with a landscaped patio within raised beds, an ideal space for alfresco dining. The long lawn area beyond is bordered by a variety of established trees and shrubs. Heading to the first floor, there are two spacious double bedrooms and a good sized three piece bathroom suite. The second floor is configured as a large loft-room, with skylights from the south and north side, allowing for maximum natural light to flood the space. This attic conversion is currently used as a bedroom.
