Blakeney Road, Horfield, Bristol

Set on the sought-after Blakeney Road in Horfield, this beautifully restored red-brick home combines vibrant interiors with a south-facing garden.

Overview

On the ground floor, there are two reception rooms: one for dining and the other for relaxing, with a fully fitted kitchen in between. This level also features a three-piece bathroom suite situated just off the kitchen. Soft, neutral tones carry the light beautifully throughout the day, subtly highlighting the home's original features and giving the whole space a serene, welcoming feel. Thoughtful renovations have added versatility, so whether you're curling up with a book or hosting friends, the layout works around you.

Moving upstairs, there are three well-proportioned bedrooms. The master bedroom spans the full width of the home and features carpet flooring and useful storage space. The second double bedroom is also a good size, while the smaller single bedroom, currently used as a bedroom, could also serve as a nursery or home office and has a pleasant outlook over the rear garden.

Outside

The south-facing garden at the rear is a real standout feature of the home and is beautifully presented. A large portion of the garden is primarily laid out as lawn, with mature trees and a high-level fence/wall that ensures privacy. There is also a useful decked seating area accessed directly from the kitchen, which provides ample space for garden furniture, perfect for dining outside during the summer months. Further features include a driveway at the front providing off-street parking for two vehicles.
