Stoneleigh Crescent, Knowle

We've loved living at Stoneleigh Crescent over the last 20 years .We were immediately struck by the light and airy feel of the house, and the lovely garden that gets the sun pretty much all day.
It a great location within walking distance of four South Bristol Parks , Perretts , Arnos Vale ,Victoria and behind Stoneleigh is Redcatch our local park, with a community garden and cafe selling home grown veg and brewing a lovely coffee . They also have an event space and put on music and comedy nights, with visiting restaurants providing yummy street food. Our children went to nearby Hillcrest School and the house is a 5 min walk to Knowle Park Primary School. Both great and very sought after schools. Stoneleigh has a great friendly community feel with neighbours arranging events on the Crescent, like carols at Christmas .
We will be sad to say goodbye to the house and neighbourhood , but promised ourselves once our now grown-up children had finished their education, we would move the countryside .

The house is situated on Stoneleigh Crescent, a short walk to the brilliant Redcatch Park, with its community gardens and cafe. The house is just minutes from Wells Road with the popular Fox and West Deli, Eat Your Greens, Acapella and Southside Bar, with its indoor and outdoor seating and serving local craft beers. Knowle is an extremely popular family area, with a brilliant combination of large houses, good schools and a choice of great parks. Knowle Park Primary, is just a short walk away down Stoneleigh road and is very well-regarded and Hillcrest primary school is not far. and locally accessed through the park. It is also close to Arnos Vale Cemetery, Perrett Park and Victoria Park, all offering a great escape from the city and open green spaces. For commuters, the area is very well placed, with Temple Meads and the several major employers around Temple Quay just around fifteen minutes away on foot, even close by bike or Voi. Bristol’s scenic Harbourside and city centre are also within walking distance, along with the independent shops, bars and cafes of North Street in Bedminster, whilst also being a short drive from the beautiful Mendips and Chew Valley to the south.

A wonderful light and bright family home with beautiful original 1930’s features and the added benefit of a garden studio and garage. The house is entered through a porch which leads to a wide hallway with wooden floors and a front door with 1930’s stain glass. There is a reception room to the front of the house with bay window and fireplace and this is open plan to the dining room at the rear which can also be closed off with bi-folding internal doors. The kitchen is a good sized kitchen with plenty of storage and glass doors into the garden. There is also a peaceful conservatory off the dining room with sunny views over the garden. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The rear garden is generous for the area with a decked area, lawn and plenty of mature shrubs and trees. The modern garden office is insulated with electric and there is also a garage for storage and both rear and side access.
