"Richmond Road has always been my favourite road in Bristol, even prior to moving here almost 20 years ago, with its picturesque view down the hill and diverse collection of buildings. I've felt very lucky to be part of this vibrant and interesting neighbourhood. The house is totally unique and offers wonderful spaces for entertaining and finding peace away from the bustle of the city centre. The roof terrace is something special, enjoying sun all day and a stunning nighttime skyline."

The home.

A simply unique home, believed to originally be a butchers shop, this beautifully presented three bedroom house has a wealth of charm and interesting features that make it unlike any other property we have seen in the area. The ground floor would have once been the commercial area of the property and is now a broad, high ceilinged reception with a charming dining area and log burner tucked away in the corner. French Doors open onto a stylish cottage kitchen and small courtyard with access onto the street, ideal for bringing bikes through. The upstairs is twice the size of downstairs and hosts three excellent bedrooms, each with a strong claim to be the main. There is an abundance of natural light provided by large sash windows and Velux's in vaulted ceilings. The landing is large enough for a work space and there are beautiful details at every turn.

The outside

The roof garden is a sensational space, catching the sun all day with views across the City and the Mendip hills to the South with a cosy little snug and firepit barbeque area, it's a wonderful place to entertain or just chill out. Accessed via a hydraulic door from the landing, it's a integral part of the home that's so easy to use and maintain.

Living in Montpelier

This property is situated in a fantastic position within Montpelier; close to the many amenities of Gloucester Road, Cheltenham Road, and Mina Road. A few doors down is The Cadbury pub, offering an excellent roast and pub quiz, and further down the road are Bianchi's (a bustling Italian diner) and Thali (a delicious Indian restaurant). Nearby cafs like The Bristolian, The Crafty Egg and Caf Kino offer great brunch options, whilst the Wiper & True tap room and Radford Mill farm shop offer residents great places to go and get quality produce, straight from the source.
Perfect for commuters, Montpelier train station is a one minute walk, with buses on the A38 and cycling routes also making the City centre easily reachable. For those looking for access to green spaces, St Andrews Park and Narroways Nature Reserve in St Werburghs are a short stroll away.
