Narroways Road, St Werburgh's, Bristol

This exceptional example of a mid-terrace Victorian railway cottage is one of the most exciting properties we have ever listed in St Werburghs.

Positioned on the highly desirable Narroways Road, the house is beautifully presented across its three floors of accommodation and has one key distinguishing factor that sets it apart from others - a stunning double plot width 135ft x 38ft back garden. Historically offered with small courtyard gardens, these cottages backed onto the Narroways Junction section of the railway line. When the line was taken out of service and removed, the land was offered to the properties it backed onto. No.21 was lucky enough to purchase the double-width plot, which you see here today.

The property itself has been beautifully finished throughout. There is a real sense of quality, workmanship and eye for design and detail. A lot of thought has gone into the finishing, and the result is exceptional.

Accommodation on the ground floor includes an entrance hallway with engineered oak floorboards and useful understairs alcove storage.

The living room at the front of the house is lovely and light, featuring high ceilings, coving, an electric fireplace and slate hearth, a period style radiator, engineered oak flooring and lastly, a pair of beautifully crafted Douglas Fir double glazed windows.

At the back of the property, the current owners have created a fantastic open-plan kitchen diner looking onto the garden beyond. This beautiful room has been extended to make the most of the space, and it has turned this room into the heart of the home. The kitchen features a range of wall and base units in a natural wood finish with contrasting stone countertops. The space is flooded with natural light thanks to bi-fold doors that look out onto the garden and two large skylights.

On the first floor level there are two double bedrooms and a bathroom. The front bedroom looks onto the peaceful cul-de-sac of Narroways Road. Features include stripped wood floor and an original cast iron fireplace with inset slate hearth. At the back of the house is another double bedroom. This eye-catching room features stripped wood floors and a period fireplace with slate hearth. What is special about this room is the window lines. The low sill and high top line gives a sense of complete openness onto the garden it looks out over - a truly great design feature.

The adjacent bathroom also has a view onto the garden and the room features stripped wood floors, a roll top bath, slate tiles, a toilet and a freestanding storage cupboard with a raised sink.

Stairs from the first floor hallway lead up into a beautifully converted loft space where there is a master bedroom and an ensuite. The room features Velux windows on the front elevation, and the dormer conversion at the rear has incredible elevated views over the garden and surrounding area. The room is light and spacious, with an exposed brick chimney feature wall and useful eaves storage accessed via two cupboard doors. The ensuite shower room next door features a washbasin, toilet and a low-profile walk-in shower with glass return and floor to ceiling stone tiling. A window at the end of the room shares the same elevated and unobstructed views as the bedroom.

Externally, the property features a fantastic double-width garden plot. At approximately 135ft long x 38ft wide the garden is exceptionally large for a house in the inner city area and feels more suited to a property you would find in the countryside! The garden features a sunny decking area, a garden shed, and a number of blossoming fruit trees.

This fantastic home really is a rarity in this location due to its size, presentation and outdoor space, which makes it one of the most special houses we have listed in St Werburghs to date.
