Abbots Way, Bristol, BS9

Set back from the main road with green space in front of you, is this chain free family home within walking distance to Henleaze & Gloucester Road.

Overview

This semi detached home offers great potential for a new owner to really make this property their own.

Already extended on the ground floor, there is also scope to convert the loft space like others on the street have already done.

You enter the porch, and then into the main house via the original front door with stained glass surround.

The ground floor has two reception rooms, and these have been knocked through to create a sociable open plan space.
There are glazed doors between these rooms so they can be separate spaces if required.
The front reception room has a bay window overlooking the green, whilst the back reception also has a bay, and this incorporates a door that opens to the garden.

Having been extended to almost double its original length some time ago, the kitchen now has space to accommodate a dining table.
You can also access the garden from here.

An understairs WC completes the ground floor accommodation.

Upstairs, there are 3 bedrooms plus the bathroom.
There is a window on the landing allowing natural light in, whilst a hatch gives access to the loft. As mentioned, other houses on the street have converted the lofts, so this is certainly a possibility - subject to obtaining the necessary consents.

Like the reception room below, the front bedroom has a bay window and an open view, whilst the back bedroom has fitted storage cupboards.
Bedroom three also benefits from the open view. This makes a great child’s room or home office.
The bathroom has a white suite.

The house belongs to a relative of an employee within the Ocean group.

Outside

There is a low maintenance front garden, with a drive to the side allowing for off road parking.
Like the front, the back garden has been designed to be hassle free and low maintenance.
The garage offers great storage and has an electric roller shutter door.
On a regular basis, we are seeing garages converted in to useable spaces, such as home offices, so there is also potential externally, as well as internally, to create more space.

Location

Around a 10 minute walk to Gloucester Road, and around a mile away from Henleaze, there are plenty of shops, cafes and pubs within strolling distance.
Southmead Hospital is also nearby and is just over half a mile away by foot.

There are buses that run along Wellington Hill West that provide access to the centre.

There is plenty of outdoor space very close by - there is a green directly in front of the house, Horfield Common is at the top of the road and Kellaway Play Park is just beyond the common.
Horfield Sports Centre is a few streets away, as are the Ardargh Tennis Courts and the Shine Sports facility at Golden Hill.

We think...

Although the house requires some updating, it’s in a popular location and makes an ideal home for those looking to live in a popular and convenient location.
