Avonvale Road, Barton Hill

"During the summer, we love spending evenings out on the decking, unwinding with dinner or a drink while enjoying the sun and sound of birds."

The Home

Beautifully presented and thoughtfully improved by the current vendors, this bright and welcoming two-bedroom home (with an additional loft room, installed by the current owners) offers well-balanced accommodation with a distinct sense of care and quality throughout. The ground floor provides two good-sized reception rooms, offering excellent versatility. To the front, there is a cosy living space perfect for relaxing evenings while the second reception room is currently used as a dining room, creating a sociable setting ideal for entertaining and everyday family life. To the rear, the home opens into a practical and well-appointed galley kitchen, providing ample storage and workspace, with direct access out to the garden perfect for seamless indoor-outdoor living during warmer months. A particularly useful addition is the downstairs WC, complemented by a cleverly integrated utility cupboard, enhancing both convenience and practicality. Upstairs, the main bedrooms are well-proportioned and filled with natural light, while the loft room offers valuable additional flexibility. Thoughtfully converted by the current owners, this bright and comfortable space includes built-in shelving and ample storage, making it ideal as a home office, guest room, or hobby space (not formally signed off). The property has seen a number of considered upgrades over time. The wooden flooring has recently been re-sanded and re-varnished, enhancing both the sense of light and the overall finish of the interiors. A Nest thermostat has been installed for modern, efficient heating control, while shutters fitted to the front windows provide added privacy without compromising on natural light. Throughout, the home benefits from a lovely south-facing aspect to the rear, allowing light to pour into the living spaces and creating a warm, inviting atmosphere year-round.

Outside

The rear garden is a standout feature generous in size, attractively landscaped, and perfectly oriented to make the most of its sunny, south-facing position. A raised decking area provides an ideal setting for outdoor dining and relaxing, seamlessly extending the living space beyond the home. The remainder of the garden has been carefully designed to offer a balance of greenery and usable space, making it perfect for entertaining, family time, or simply enjoying a peaceful outdoor retreat. With direct access from the kitchen, it’s a highly practical and enjoyable extension of the home.
