Henleaze Road, Henleaze

"I've really cherished my time in this wonderful home. Closing the front door of the cottage and sitting in the back room with the log fire on the outside world vanishes and you can completely relax."

The home

A cute two bedroom cottage with loads of character and plenty of space. as well as a super convenient location so close to Henleaze high street. At the rear overlooking the garden , the main living area is a cosy and characterful space, with an attractive fireplace and wood-burning stove providing a natural focal point. There’s plenty of room to settle in, with the proportions lending themselves just as well to quiet evenings as they do to having friends over. The second reception room offers great flexibility. Whether you imagine this as a snug, a more formal dining space or somewhere to escape with a book, it’s a useful addition that makes the layout work for a variety of lifestyles. The kitchen has a fresh, contemporary feel, with cream cabinetry, warm timber worktops and a good amount of preparation and storage space. A gas hob, oven and rooflight add to the practicality, while the overall finish feels bright and welcoming. The garden room is a real highlight, with glazed doors opening onto the garden, it’s an inviting space for morning coffee, relaxed dining or simply enjoying a different perspective of the house. It also creates a lovely connection between the inside and out. A useful shower room completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, there are two well-proportioned bedrooms, each offering comfortable and versatile accommodation. The principal bedroom is a generous double, with plenty of room for wardrobes and additional furniture, while the second bedroom is another good-sized room that could work equally well as a guest bedroom, nursery or home office.

The family bathroom is finished in a fresh, contemporary style, with attractive green tiling, a bath with shower over, wash basin and WC.

The outside

To the rear, the garden has been arranged to offer a mix of seating and planting space, with a paved terrace leading up to a gravelled area. Enclosed by timber fencing and established greenery, it’s a lovely spot to enjoy some fresh air, entertain in the warmer months or potter with a few plants.
