Harford Drive, Frenchay

"I often wander why it is so quiet and green where I live but yet I am so close to town and every transport network on my doorstep. The Frome Valley has become our playground and in minutes we can be surrounded by nature."

The Home

Fully refurbished in 2021 to an exceptional standard, this beautifully presented first floor apartment has been transformed throughout with real care and attention to detail. The heart of the home is the open plan kitchen, living and dining space, which the current owner cleverly reconfigured to make the kitchen more spacious and light-filled. It is a wonderful area for both everyday living and entertaining, with Amtico LVT flooring running through the common areas, elegant feature wood panelling and smart 1930s-style doors with bronze handles adding real character throughout.
The kitchen and bathroom were both specified by an interior designer, ensuring a cohesive and stylish finish, the bathroom beautifully tiled and the kitchen thoughtfully laid out. Underfloor heating runs throughout, and the rewiring has tripled the number of sockets.The three bedrooms are all spacious and light-filled, completing what is a genuinely impressive and move-in ready home.

The Outside

The open plan living space flows naturally out onto a southerly-facing balcony, a lovely spot to make the most of the sun throughout the day. At the far end of the balcony sits a handy utility area, keeping everything neatly tucked away. The property further benefits from a private parking space and a garage.

Living in Frenchay

Frenchay is a well-regarded area in North Bristol, offering a village setting which is still well connected to the centre of Bristol, and beyond. For residents looking to retreat from city life, the area has a good range of green spaces, from the expansive Stoke Park to the winding paths along Snuff Mills and the Oldbury Court Estate ideal for dog walkers, runners and mountain bikers who are after that countryside feeling while being on the edge of the city.The area is situated close to several areas of employment, with many residents working at the nearby M.O.D or Aviva or making the short journey to other major employers in North Bristol, such as Rolls Royce and Airbus. For those who work or socialise in the City Centre, the proximity to Bristol Parkway is very useful whilst buses also provide access by public transport. The area is situated very close to the M32 so for those travelling to Bristol, London or South Wales by car, the property is very well placed.
