Description

Location


Set to the north-west of Bristol's commercial centre, Great Brockeridge enjoys one of the suburb's most convenient positions. The amenities of Westbury-on-Trym village are close at hand, with Stoke Lane a little further on, home to a supermarket, bakery, restaurants and welcoming pubs. It is an established, leafy neighbourhood with a genuine sense of community.

Families are exceptionally well placed here, with an enviable choice of state and independent schooling on the doorstep. Elmlea Junior School (Ofsted Outstanding, approx. 0.2 miles) sits barely a couple of streets away, with Westbury-on-Trym CofE Academy (Ofsted Good, approx. 0.7 miles) close by and Bristol Free School (Ofsted Good, approx. 1.1 miles) within easy reach. The independent sector is a particular strength: Badminton School (approx. 0.2 miles) and Redmaids' High School (approx. 0.3 miles), the latter rated excellent across every area at its most recent graded ISI inspection, are both within a short walk, with The Downs Preparatory School a drive to the west (approx. 5 miles).

For commuters, the A4018 provides the principal route into the city centre and out to the motorway network at the M5, while Bristol Parkway offers fast rail connections to London and beyond. Leisure is equally well served, with health and fitness clubs and golf courses within easy reach, and the wide green expanse of Durdham Down, some 400 acres of open parkland, only a short drive away.

The House


A handsome detached family home dating from around 1960, offering generous two-storey, five-bedroom accommodation in one of Westbury-on-Trym's most sought-after addresses. Over the past decade, the current owners have transformed the property inside and out, extending the footprint, installing a striking new kitchen, adding a comprehensive security system and creating a series of beautifully landscaped gardens and terraces. The result is a home of real flexibility and flow, as suited to relaxed family life as it is to entertaining.

The reception hall forms the central axis of the house, with the principal rooms opening directly from it. The drawing room is a natural gathering space, with bifold doors drawing it through to the family room beyond and sliding doors to the front opening onto an elevated terrace. At the heart of the home sits the kitchen/breakfast room, appointed with a recently installed range of high-quality wall and base units, marble work surfaces and a comprehensive suite of integrated appliances, while a bay to the front elevation creates a relaxed spot to sit and read.

The two-storey rear extension is where the house truly comes into its own. Here, the dining area and family room span the full width of the rear elevation, with bifold doors offering direct, level access onto the terrace and outdoor kitchen, dissolving the line between inside and out. Completing the ground floor, and again opening from the reception hall, is a cloakroom that doubles neatly as a utility.

Upstairs, the first floor offers five bedrooms of differing sizes and aspects. The principal bedroom enjoys a dressing area with fitted cupboards leading through to a well-appointed en suite bathroom. The guest bedroom is equally considered, served by its own walk-in shower room, while the three remaining bedrooms are well supported by the family bathroom.

To the front, a carriage driveway provides ample off-street parking alongside a single garage. The front garden is ornamental in character, with a ribbon of lawn framed by richly planted herbaceous borders, and the elevated terrace is perfectly placed to catch the afternoon and evening sun. The rear garden, the subject of the most recent and most comprehensive makeover, is thoughtfully tiered around an elevated lawn. Below, a succession of terraces offers further seating, an outdoor kitchen and bar, and a pergola with built-in seating, an outdoor entertaining space of rare quality.

Outside


To the front, a carriage driveway provides generous off-street parking alongside a single garage. The front garden is ornamental in character, with a ribbon of lawn framed by richly planted herbaceous borders, while an elevated terrace to this elevation is perfectly placed to catch the afternoon and evening sun.

To the rear, the garden has been the subject of the most recent and most comprehensive of the owners' improvements. Thoughtfully tiered around an elevated lawn, it steps down through a series of terraces that offer further seating, an outdoor kitchen and bar, and a pergola with built-in seating. The result is a garden designed for entertaining as much as relaxing, and an outdoor space of genuine quality.
