Somerset Terrace, Windmill Hill

“A real Bristol haven which is so close to nature yet in the heart of the City. I’ll miss having my morning tea in the garden, listening to birds splashing away in the pond.”

This beautiful terraced home is located at the end of Somerset Terrace, a hugely popular no through road which finishes at the top of Victoria Park. Windmill Hill is renowned for the fantastic views it offers from many vantage points over Bristol and towards the countryside to the south and west. The area has become one of the most sought after in Bristol over recent years, popular with many for its picturesque streets of charming Victorian homes and the character they offer within. The Rising Sun is the local pub and offers fantastic food and a welcoming atmosphere. Towards Bedminster there is the vibrant North Street, housing a diversity of independents such as the Albatross Cafe, the highly regarded Kask, as well as Oowee Diner. On from this, the Tobacco factory is a cultural hub of South Bristol and just a 20 minute walk away with a great lineup of shows. Just a small walk away, you will find yourself at Wapping Wharf, with amazing eateries including Wild Beer Co., Root and Seven Lucky Gods. Three doors down from the property, you come across the vast Victoria Park, which is a hive of activity for families, joggers and those looking to socialise. For commuters and young professionals, the house is also well-located, within walking distance of the City Centre and Temple Meads Station and major employers around the Harbourside and Temple Quay. The area also has some well-regarded shops, cafes and pubs, such as The Victoria Park and Park Bakery, with the popular shops and cafes of Totterdown just a short walk away.

The ground floor of this Victorian period property has been opened up by a previous owner to create a bright reception space with fitted log burner which flows through to a generous kitchen diner to the rear. The back of the property features a versatile sun room which benefits from plenty of light due to the double doors which open out onto the garden. Sanded, exposed floorboards run throughout the ground floor which compliment the stylish yet neutral theme that runs throughout and gives the house a particularly calming vibe. The garden of this property is without doubt one of the key selling points of the house, complete with a mature espaliered pear tree and many fruit bushes. Benefiting from a sunny south easterly aspect the gardens on this side of the terrace have long been popular additions for local residents. There is plenty of space for anyone looking to grow their own veg or host summer parties. The upstairs is comprised of two generously sized double bedrooms as well as a family bathroom to the rear. This property also comes with a large basement which is currently used as storage. It is unusual to find a Victorian terrace with so much available storage space and garden size and the vendor is also selling this property with no onward chain.
