Adjacent, the bathroom is well-sized, encompassing a three-piece suite of toilet, sink with vanity unit and large bath with shower over.

Rear Garden - Accessed via patio doors from the extension, the rear garden is a very generous size and is primarily laid to lawn with well-manicured trees and flowerbeds to its perimeter.

Vendor's Comments - "Our lovely house on Rodbourne Road has the been the perfect home for our growing family over the last few years. The extended kitchen/diner is the heart of the house, providing enough space for all the family to enjoy spending time playing and eating together. It’s been great to have a separate sitting room, which we have found to be delightfully cosy when heated by the log burner in the winter. It’s also been really practical and convenient having a separate utility room, sink and downstairs toilet. We really appreciate being able to park right outside the house and there’s always been space on the street as well. We feel fortunate to have great relationships with our neighbours who are considerate and friendly. The house has been ideally situated for us, with a playpark just around the corner and Horfield Common (and Gloucester Road beyond) only a very short walk away. We have also benefitted from the house being in very close proximity to a large Tesco and Southmead Hospital, and have found the location to be in easy reach of both the centre of town and nearby motorways for commuting."
