Leighton Road, Knowle, Bristol

This charming two bedroom Victorian home on Leighton Road is available to buy having recently had some cosmetic upgrades making it ready to move into and enjoy from day one!

Overview

Beautifully presented throughout, the ground floor layout has been altered slightly to provide separate yet connected living spaces making the whole ground floor ideal for hosting and socialising.

The living room at the front is a cosy space to relax with a bay window keeping the room bright while the fireplace and and original floorboards add period charm. The dining room spans the width of the house with a window looking on to the garden, more original floorboards and a feature made out of its fireplace. The kitchen is contained within an extension to the house and has been upgraded recently by the current owner. There is a generous amount of cupboard and counter space, on-trend shaker-style door fronts, an integrated oven and hob plus spaces for other essential appliances.

Upstairs are two bedrooms, both of which are doubles, and the bathroom. The main bedroom is generous with a bay window that gives an outlook over the immediate area and beyond with the hills of Lansdown near Bath visible. There is ample space for a large bed and useful nooks and alcoves that are ideal for wardrobes and other bedroom furnishings. The other bedroom makes an ideal full time or spare bedroom depending on requirements while the bathroom, upgraded around the same time as the kitchen, is well appointed and features a large walk-in shower.

Additionally, there is an attic which has conversion potential, subject to the necessary consents.

Outside

The rear garden is a low maintenance space and enjoys a sunny south-westerly aspect. Benefitting from access from the lane running behind the terrace, there are two patio sections separated by a couple of steps. With no lawn to maintain, there is plenty of opportunity to add potted and climbing plants and create a leafy oasis! An ideal space for hosting summer BBQs, there is scope to add some lawn on the higher level if desired.
