Seller Insight This neat, compact, Victorian, terraced cottage is situated in Totterdown, which is a popular suburb of historical city Bristol. Located conveniently close to the city centre, with Temple Meads Station being within easy walking distance. Road links are excellent and public transport is available into the city centre if required. In addition, the house is conveniently located to visit large areas of open parkland. Schools are nearby, along with opportunities to pursue wide ranging sport and leisure opportunities. Totterdown is very vibrant and, apart from convenient supermarkets, contains several interesting and diverse shops, which includes an artisan bakery and independent butcher. There is a wonderful selection of restaurants and pubs in the locality, and the area is a popular venue for music events. “We rented the house for a few years before it became available for sale. We adored living in this vibrant area and, therefore, took the opportunity to purchase it ten years ago Its accommodation has been extremely practical and ideal for our family. The layout of the house has proved to be highly versatile, especially as we have three reception rooms on the ground floor, one being the neat, galley style, kitchen.” Favourite Room: “Our dining room is adjacent to the kitchen and is a bright and sunny room. It can be a cosy retreat in the winter months but, during the summer, we like to throw open its large French door which leads to a compact courtyard and which enables everone to enjoy relaxed external dining, or friendly BBQs.” Favourite aspect of the grounds or surrounding area: ”Being so close to the city centre has many advantages which has enabled the family to experience and enjoy a variety of festivals which take place in the city throughout the year. In addition, several of the events take place along the nearby riverside. Should we wish to go further afield, it is so easy to visit the beautiful countryside adjacent to the city.” What they will miss/why they are leaving: “It is for logistical family reasons that we are moving away from the house and this special location. We wish its new owners much happiness and contentment.” * These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an insight into life at the property.
