Vendor's Comments - "Back in 2021 I jumped at the chance to live in a freehold property of this size so close to the centre. It was and is fundamentally unique in this respect – a mini-castle in the centre of Bristol. What I’ve particularly valued are things like barbecues with friends in the garden, board games with family in the living room, a large kitchen, decently sized bedrooms, and ample storage to keep everything tidy. I’ve treasured it and everything that makes it as homely as it is whilst I’ve been there. Sadly my circumstances have changed and I’m looking to pass the baton to another owner who will take care of it as I have."
