"We love the sense of space - with views over allotments at the back and parks on either side, plus you get really big skies from being up on a hill. In the summer, you get amazing sunsets on the patio and in winter you see fireworks over the city. It's a brilliant location, very green and super central - we're surrounded by three parks yet a stroll to Temple Meads, North St and the Harbourside, taproom and market at the city farm, and Sunday coffees in Victoria Park."

The home

A mid terrace 1930's house which has been extended into the loft and has a generous rear garden with views across Bristol. Downstairs there is an open plan living room/dining room with bay window to the front and glass doors to the rear letting in loads of light and leading to the rear garden. The kitchen is separate but could easily be knocked through to make open plan living. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor and the loft has been converted to a generous bedroom with Velux windows and great views.

The outside

The large garden is zoned into different areas making the most of the moving sun. With decking directly accessed from the house leading to a large patio area. The garden has a large lawn and there is a further decked area at the bottom of the garden. The garden also has rear access from a lane.

Living in Victoria Park

Sylvia Avenue is a residential street in Victoria Park, with sweeping views across Bristol and the surrounding countryside. Within a 5 minute walk from the house you'll find Corner Stores coffee shop by Fox & West, The Victoria Park pub, the Rising Sun, and Windmill Hill Community Centre.
