St Werburghs Park, St Werburghs

"Leaving St Werburghs Park will be leaving with a very heavy heart. I have absolutely loved my time here, it’s feels more like living in a village than a city, easy access to green space/ farms and allotments. The people are so friendly and it has a real sense of community. It’s always a lovely feeling to get back home, sunny days are spent chilling in the garden or winter months relaxing in the lounge where we have created a comfortable snug."

The home

A pretty and stylishly finished two bedroom Victorian terrace located on a quiet, residential crescent on an elevated position in St. Werburghs. The home possesses so many of the features so beloved of the era. With a pretty brickwork and Bath Stone facade, gorgeous parquet and stripped flooring, a stylish and on trend colour palate and an all round elegant aesthetic. Walking through the front door into the hall and stepping onto that beautiful floor you know that this is a special home. On the right is the lounge, with a pretty feature fireplace with Ardosia slate hearth and Ramsbury multi terracotta tiled inset, bespoke shelving and radiator, it's the perfect space to chill at any time of day. The dining room is a chic setting for hosting, with a stripped floor, bespoke radiator, marble hearth and bespoke shelving, it's a perfect blend of cool and classic. The parquet floor continues through the kitchen, which has loads of storage and prep space due to the long, homely wooden counter tops and fitted units.

Moving upstairs you are met by the beautiful bathroom which is simply a show stopper. In a classic white with chic tiling and sophisticated fixtures, it's a wonderful space to invigorate or relax at the start or end of the day. The main bedroom stretches across the front of the home, with loads of space and super fun built in storage it's a great retreat with a tranquil vibe. The second bedroom is an excellent double with a lovely view across the garden and rooftops beyond.

The outside

These houses have some of the largest gardens in the area and this property's is one of the finest I've seen. Beautifully landscaped with a number of permanent seating areas, benches and decks, there's a shady or sunny spot at any time of day. With handsome York stone slabs creating the pathway, slate shingle and raised beds it's a striking, practical space that's low on maintenance and high on enjoyment. The elevated position and Westerly aspect are perfect for ensuring loads of sunshine deep into the evening. A wonderful space for hosting garden parties or just chilling out with a glass and a book.

Living in St Werburghs

St Werburghs Park sits on one of the quietest and most sought-after streets in the area, tucked on the western fringe of the neighbourhood and bordering Ashley Hill and Montpelier. Despite the peaceful setting, everything the area has to offer is within easy walking distance. Morning croissants from Chaya, Pilates at St Werburghs Community Centre, a pint by the fire at The Miners Arms, wine and dumplings at Clouds, or a visit to St Werburghs City Farm to feed the goats before brunch at The Farm Cafe: the rhythms of life here are hard to give up. Wiper & True Tap Room, the Better Food Company, and Bloc Climbing at the end of Mina Road add to a neighbourhood that has genuine depth and community. The Church Climbing Academy is a short stroll away, and the nearby M32 provides easy access to Bristol Parkway and the wider motorway network.
