Cotswold Road, Windmill Hill

"I fell in love with this house within minutes of stepping through the door. It has been our home for 20 years. I have raised 3 children here and it has served us well. Victoria Park has hosted picnics and parties and is ideal for dog walks. The neighbourhood is eclectic and there are so many great places like north street or the docks within walkable distance. We have all loved living in such a lovely house. It has its own personality and we will sorely miss it."

The home

A beautiful Victorian terrace that has been a much loved family home. The house is set over three floors and has a generous rear garden as well as a pretty front garden. Downstairs there are two reception rooms and a kitchen with plenty of space for a dining table which overlooks the rear garden. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms (one with en-suite) and a beautiful family bathroom. The loft has been converted into a light and bright third bedroom.

The outside

The house has a pretty raised front garden with some great climbers and mature plants. The rear garden has a patio accessed from the kitchen and then some steps to a gorgeous lawned area and plenty of shrubs and trees. The top of the garden is a real sun trap with a patio area for dining.

Cotswold Road is a quiet street situated in the popular Windmill Hill area of Bristol, a short walk to Bedminster Train Station which takes you directly to Temple Meads or down to Weston Super Mare in the other direction. 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 Victoria Park Pub is the local pub, which offers fantastic food and a welcoming atmosphere.

Towards Bedminster, there is the vibrant North Street, housing a diversity of independents, such as Cor, and the highly regarded Kask, Oowee Diner as well as the Tobacco factory, a cultural hub of South Bristol with a great line up of shows. Wapping Wharf is also easily accessible, with amazing eateries including Root, The Bristol Beer Factory, and Seven Lucky Gods. Towards the east of the home, 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 and cafes such as The Bristol Loaf and Windmill Hill City Farm is a popular attraction very close by and has a great caf and regular events and pop ups.
