Bathwell Road, Totterdown

"I bought this flat from a new build in September 2021, and it has been a dream to live in - I’m only moving because of starting a family, so I have to! The place is so energy efficient with the white goods, boiler and solar panels it came with that my bills are really low, and the shower pressure is awesome. I will probably miss my huge windows the most - morning sunlight floods my bedroom each morning, and I have a sweeping view of the St. Phillip’s Marsh area that is set to be redeveloped around Temple Meads. The place feels secure but intimate/homey with the separate stairwell shared with two other flats (lovely neighbours)."

Bathwell Road is placed to the east of Totterdown and close by to the beautiful Arnos Vale Cemetery. This street has the best of both worlds, with a fantastic array of cafes, restaurants and independent shops on Wells Road, as well as the open green spaces of South Bristol all within close proximity.
