Surrey Road, Bishopston

"The neighbourhood is warm and welcoming with a real sense of community, but it's also a stones throw from all of the fun and bustle of Gloucester road. It's really the best of both worlds. We also have a local baker that delivers freshly baked sourdough to our road every Saturday!"

The home

Offered to market with a complete chain, a spacious and charming Victorian garden flat on Surrey Road in Bishopston, with two parking spaces, boasting stylish presentation, well-proportioned rooms and good natural light throughout, ideally positioned close to Gloucester Road and St Andrews Park.

Entrance is into a communal hallway, leading to the front door of the garden flat. First is the sumptuous living area, featuring a bay window, exposed brick fireplace, original wooden flooring, stained glass windows and picture rails. Next is the main bedroom, with comfortable floorspace, a large window frame and plenty of space for storage/wardrobes. Continuing through the hallway, is the kitchen/breakfast area displaying wooden cabinetry, original sash window and tiled flooring. From the kitchen you can access the three piece bathroom suite, utility area and garden. The bathroom has underfloor heating and an electronic skylight, plus a shower-over-bath. The boiler is gas, located in the bathroom and was installed in 2014.

The outside space

The plot begins with a unique two car driveway, particularly for a flat in the immediate area, along with ample space for visitors on the road without restrictions. From the kitchen, you access the rear garden which faces northwest, and is ideal for afternoon and evening sun.

Living in Bishopston

Surrey Road is an attractive and verdant residential street on the border of Bishopston & St Andrews. The property offers easy access to numerous green spaces such as the local St Andrews Park which features a play area for children and plenty of park land for those looking for a convenient dog walking spot. For those commuting to work, Surrey Road is well-placed for major areas of employment both in the City Centre and in North Bristol, with buses running both ways along the A38 and Montpellier Station is a ten minute walk away which reaches Bristol Temple Meads as well as Severn Beach. This property couldn't be better placed for an afternoon out on Gloucester Road, one of the most popular shopping locations in the city, which features numerous independent coffee shops and cafe's such as The Bristolian, FED, MOD, and The Crafty Egg. Great schools are also on the doorstep, including Brunel Fields Primary, Sefton Park Infants and Junior School, and Fairfield High School.

Note regarding share of freehold: We share the freehold with the owners of the upstairs flat, under a criss-cross arrangement. There is a lease of 999 years from 1 January 1983 (956 years remaining). There is no management charge. There is officially a lease cost of 1 per year with the upstairs neighbour (but this has never been done in practice nor with the owner previous to us).
