Fishponds Road, Eastville

"I have loved living here, it so well connected - being able to jump on a bus in to town or head out on my bike - I was so excited when I discovered how quick it is to get on the Bristol-Bath path! The privacy of the back garden has been great, something I have felt really lucky to have, it can be a proper little sun trap - glorious! The short stroll to Eastville Park, people watching and exploring walks from there has been yet another delight."

The flat

This one-bedroom garden flat in Eastville has been lived in with a lot of care and it shows. The living room is a lovely space — original cast iron fireplace, built-in alcove shelving, wooden floors and a bay window that brings in good light. The current owner has added their own colour and character throughout, enhancing the overall feel of the property. The kitchen/diner is a genuinely good size for a one-bed flat, with cream shaker units, wood worktops and enough room for a proper dining table alongside the kitchen. The bedroom is a comfortable double with a lovely view out to the garden, and the bathroom has a full-sized bath with shower over and patterned floor tiles. There's also useful storage off the hallway.
This share of freehold flat is being sold chain-free.

The outside space

The rear garden is a genuine highlight — laid out over two levels, with a sheltered lower terrace directly off the kitchen stepping up to a lawned area with established planting, a tall palm, flowering shrubs and a storage shed. It feels private and well looked after & has a private rear entrance. Out front, the property, which also has its own entrance, sits behind a gravel forecourt on a handsome stone-fronted Victorian terrace which creates a sense of privacy & a good separation from the road.
