Fir Tree Lane, Troopers Hill

"As our first marital home, it's our little sanctuary. The street is quiet and the whole surrounding area is so green and feels like a little escape from the busyness of the city, despite being so close (cycling along the river to work in the centre is a huge plus) The uniqueness of this historical cottage just makes it feel so special and one of a kind. We truly are sad to be leaving and will really miss watching the balloons over Bristol whilst listening to the birds led in our hammock. The view, the house and the area are so special to us and want the house to go to someone who will appreciate it as much as we do."
