Nags Head Hill, Troopers Hill

"We've had a brilliant 10 years putting our own stamp on this beautiful Victorian home and filling it with happy memories. It's a brilliant house for hosting – the garden is a total sun trap, and we've spent many summer evenings out on the deck with an icy beverage. When we're feeling adventurous we stroll 5 minutes down the road to catch the sun set at Troopers Hill nature reserve. Otherwise we'll walk our paddleboards down to Conham River for some forest bathing before stopping off for a drink at Beeses on the way home."

The home

A characterful terraced house on Nags Head Hill, this is a home that wears it's personality with confidence. Bold colour choices, original features and an eclectic, art-filled interior make it a genuinely distinctive find in one of Bristol's most sought-after neighbourhoods.
On the ground floor, the lounge is a striking space with a bay window flooding the room with light, and a beautiful period fireplace with decorative tiled surround. French doors open through to the dining room, a warm and sociable space painted in a rich earthy red with built-in shelving, a wall-mounted fireplace and direct access to the kitchen, creating a natural flow for everyday living and entertaining alike. The kitchen has been extended to the rear and benefits from a skylight, a range cooker and a breakfast bar with garden-facing doors, making it a bright and practical heart of the home.
Upstairs, two well-proportioned bedrooms each have their own distinct character. The larger front bedroom carries the home's bold aesthetic through with an orange-painted ceiling and dark wood flooring, while the second bedroom is a calm, light-filled space with painted arch detail and garden views. The family bathroom is generously sized with both a full-length bath and a separate shower enclosure.

The outside space

To the rear, the garden is a good size with a timber deck immediately off the kitchen door, ideal for outdoor dining, leading down to a lawned and planted area with mature hedging and fencing providing good privacy. There is potential to develop and personalise the space further for those with green fingers.
