Marston Road, Knowle

"Our home really feels like a warm and inviting family home and over the years we've particularly enjoyed getting in from a winter dog walk with the kids and settling down to watch a film with a hot chocolate and the log fire burning. Halloween and Christmas are particularly special on the road (and Somerset Road) and we love the annual carol concert! In the summer, we enjoy opening up the dining room doors and moving the table to the patio for dinners with our neighbours and friends."

The home

A beautiful semi detached family home which has been extended up into the loft to create a 5 bedroom home. Downstairs is a large reception room to the front with bay window, log burner and in built storage. To the rear of the house is a dining room with doors onto the rear garden and a good sized kitchen leading to a utility room and downstairs shower room/WC. Up to the first floor are three double bedrooms and a family bathroom and the loft has recently been converted into two further bedrooms.


The outside

The garden has a good sized lawn and raised flower beds. At the rear is a patio, shed and a pretty covered seating area.
