Arnos Street, Totterdown

"We love early evening sitting on our balcony when the sun comes around, our little sun trap for evening meals! And you can’t beat a walk over to Perretts Park with a takeaway pizza from acapella to enjoy the good weather and view of Bristol."

The Home

A two-bedroom Victorian terrace with spacious rooms and plenty of character.

The ground floor has a hallway leading into the living space which has a bay window, original floorboards, gas fire and ceiling rose. The front reception room and dining room flow into each other creating a social space when entertaining and allowing for plenty of light to flow through. Off the dining space French doors open out to an elevated decked terrace, a unique feature for Victorian terraced home. The kitchen sits to the rear of the house and is fitted with wooden worktops, white units and direct access out to the garden.

Upstairs are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, both feeling noticeably generous in size. The bathroom is situated at the rear of the home and includes a bath with shower over, toilet and basin.

The current owners have made some sensible updates during their time here, including double-glazed sash windows fitted by Urban Windows, Hillarys blinds and a roof replacement.

Outside Space

To the rear is an enclosed garden which gets the sun from mid-morning through to the evening. It has been set up to be fairly low maintenance, with gravelled areas, planting and space for outdoor seating. There is also a small raised decked area, giving another spot to sit out.
