Pinkers Mead, Emersons Green

"We lived in Pinkers Mead for twenty five years, bought the house from new and raised our family here. We are walking distance to Emersons Green Junior School and Mangotsfield Senior School, which was important for us when we moved in. We’ve loved living here and watching our family grow but now we would like to downsize as the children have left."

The outside space

The garden is a well-kept, easy to use space that works well for both relaxing and spending time outside, facing mainly east. Due to the direction, good amounts of sun is captured in the morning and throughout the day. There’s a large decked area directly behind the house, which has plenty of room for a table and seating, making it a natural spot for eating outside or just sitting in the warmer months. It also links well with the conservatory, so the inside and outside spaces feel connected.

The boundaries are enclosed with fencing and planting, helping to create a sense of privacy. At the far end, there’s a garden shed for storage, along with established shrubs and greenery.
