Camerton Road, Greenbank

"The community on Camerton Road is something special to be part of - whether it's borrowing a last-minute can of beans, street parties, or watching the football together outside, no ask is ever too big or too small. Beyond that, our little patch has always felt like a quiet, even wild, haven in the middle of the city, from birdsong in our back garden to walks through the Greenbank Cemetery at sunset spotting woodpeckers and jays. It has been the perfect place to bring our daughter into the world."

The home

A characterful Victorian terrace on Camerton Road, Greenbank, offering well-proportioned accommodation across two floors. The property sits within a classic terraced row and retains a good deal of period charm throughout.

Entrance is through a central hallway leading into the lounge at the front of the house, a comfortable and characterful room with an original Victorian fireplace, and warm timber flooring underfoot. To the rear, the kitchen and diner forms the real heart of the home, a bright and sociable space fitted with sage green cabinetry and timber worktops, with space for a substantial dining table. There is a wood burning stove and exposed brick chimney. French doors open directly onto the garden, drawing in plenty of natural light and creating an easy flow between inside and out. A useful utility room and downstairs WC sit just off the kitchen.

Upstairs, two well-proportioned bedrooms are served by a stylish family bathroom, finished with part-tiled walls, and painted panelling. Throughout the home, original details sit comfortably alongside thoughtful, contemporary updates.

The outside space

The rear garden is a lovely, private spot, with a paved patio area ideal for outdoor dining and a wood store to one side. Mature planting and greenery give the space real character, offering a peaceful spot to relax just steps from the kitchen doors.
