Knoll Hill, Bristol, BS9

A stunning detached family home with gated off street parking, double garage & vast wrap around gardens situated along one of Sneyd Park’s most coveted roads.

Description

The Dell is a beautifully balanced modern residence, thoughtfully renovated by its current owners to offer an exceptional home featuring high levels of privacy, security, and low-maintenance living.

Over recent years, the owners have undertaken a comprehensive refurbishment, including the installation of a new kitchen and three new bathrooms, new flooring throughout, and re-rendering of the exterior walls. Additional enhancements include landscaped wrap-around gardens, the addition of air conditioning in several rooms, resurfacing of the front driveway, and the installation of an electric front gate. Storage has also been improved, with the loft fully boarded for extra space and a new timber shed added beside the garage.

Accessed via Knoll Hill, a wide steel and timber electric gate opens to off-street parking for multiple vehicles and a detached double garage equipped with an electric roller door.
A secure pedestrian gate provides entry to the house and gardens, where a pathway leads to the covered front door, bordered by carefully landscaped gardens and allowing full 360-degree access around the property.

Inside, a welcoming entrance porch offers space for coats and boots, with a part-glazed door opening into the entrance hall. The ground floor features a series of shallow split levels that follow the natural contours of the surrounding gardens and is fitted with zoned underfloor heating, complemented by traditional radiators on the first floor. Just off the entrance hall are two versatile reception rooms, both equipped with fully reversible air-conditioning units—ideal for year-round comfort. The smaller room currently serves as a home office, while the larger is a stylish snug or family games/TV room, complete with bespoke fitted cabinets and a bay window with a recessed window seat. A short flight of stairs leads down to the main reception room, which benefits from a triple aspect, abundant natural light, and twin sets of glazed sliding doors opening to the garden. The raised pitched ceiling enhances the spacious feel, and a contemporary glazed wood-effect gas fireplace adds a cozy focal point. From the entrance hall, another shallow staircase descends to the kitchen, with a cloakroom accessed via an inner lobby. The full-depth kitchen and breakfast room, renovated in 2024, boasts expansive natural stone countertops, ample floor and wall storage, and a bright dual aspect. Sliding glazed doors open onto a covered and decked loggia, perfect for indoor-outdoor living. The space easily accommodates a dining table and includes numerous recessed appliances such as a ceramic hob, oven, microwave combi oven, dishwasher, and space for a double-fronted fridge/freezer. Adjacent to the kitchen is a separate utility room with plumbing and space for a washing machine and dryer, a fitted sink, additional storage, and a casement window.

Upstairs, the top floor accommodates four bedrooms and three bathrooms, two of which are en suite. The master bedroom is impressive, featuring a triple aspect spanning the full depth of the house, reversible air conditioning, and generous fitted wardrobe space. The recently refurbished en suite bathroom offers underfloor heating, a Japanese-style toilet, an oversized walk-in shower, a vanity basin, and a heated towel ladder. The second bedroom is equally inviting, with a bright dual aspect and access to a fully tiled, elegantly appointed en suite shower room, which includes an oversized walk-in shower, vanity basin, Japanese-style toilet, and heated towel ladder. Bedroom three is a comfortable size with a fitted wardrobe, while the fourth, the smallest, also benefits from fitted wardrobes and makes an ideal study, nursery, or single bedroom. These two bedrooms share a well-designed family bathroom, fully tiled and featuring a panelled jet spa bath with integrated shower, vanity basin, toilet, and heated towel ladder. All bathrooms and shower rooms have fully opening windows, ensuring ample natural light and ventilation. From the landing, a loft hatch provides access to a spacious, fully boarded loft area, where the solar panel controller is also located.

The gardens at The Dell wrap around the house, capturing sunlight throughout the day. Recent improvements include resurfacing and leveling the driveway, replacing all exterior fencing, installing an electric vehicle gate, upgrading gutters along the roofline of both house and garage, and swapping the outdoor decking for durable Smartboard composite decking. There is plenty of space for outdoor cooking and dining—whether enjoying breakfast in the morning sun or relaxing with a sundowner in the evening.

Location

The Dell is discreetly tucked away along one of Sneyd Park’s most coveted roads within close proximity of the Sneyd Park Nature Reserve. There are pleasant woodland walks and of course, Sneyd Park is on the cusp of Durdham Downs with 400 acres of recreational space.

Sneyd Park is a highly desirable suburb lying to the north-west of Bristol’s commercial centre and benefits from many amenities. There is a small array of shops suitable for day to day living in Druid Hill and a more extensive selection available from Queens Road with some more select boutiques in Clifton Village. Recreational facilities are in abundance, such as golf courses and leisure clubs in Redland and Westbury-on-Trym, as well as some walks along the various tree-lined roads.

Bus services provide a regular service to the city centre and for the commuter, the A4 and A4018 provide a direct link to the motorway networks, M5 and M4 (south-west, Midlands, London and South Wales respectively).

There are many schools in the near vicinity, state and independent, primary and secondary, as well as institutions such as the Royal Infirmary and University.
