Wolseley Road, Bristol, BS7

An extended two-bedroom Victorian family home located on a quiet residential road in Bishopston within the Bishop Road Primary and Redland Green Secondary APR. The property is finished to a high standard throughout, with key features including an extended kitchen/diner with a separate utility room, a downstairs w.c and potential to extend into the loft.

The ground-floor accommodation comprises a main vestibule entrance and a hallway, providing access to the ground floor and stairs rising to the first floor. All downstairs rooms are combined to create an amazing open-plan social space. The sitting room to the front retains bay sash windows, decorative cornice, a ceiling rose and a wood-burning stove. The dining room is open to the sitting room via an archway, retains a period dresser with shelving over, and continues through to the extended kitchen/breakfast room at the rear.

The kitchen/breakfast room extends across the entire width of the property at the rear. It has been fitted with a range of modern units, including an inset ‘Belfast style’ sink, an integrated electric oven and gas hob, an integrated dishwasher, a fridge/freezer, and a central island incorporating a breakfast bar. The room feels light and bright, with two large skylight windows, glazed double doors, and a double-glazed window overlooking the rear garden, allowing an abundance of natural light into the open-plan space. A practical utility room is accessed from the kitchen and offers an additional sink, storage, space for a washing machine, and a door to a downstairs w.c.

There are two double bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor. Bedroom one at the front is decorated and carpeted in neutral tones, has two sash windows, and has access to a walk-in wardrobe. The adjacent bedroom two is also carpeted, has two built-in wardrobes and a sash window overlooking the garden. Next door, the well-designed family bathroom features a panelled bath, a separate walk-in shower cubicle, a wall-hung wash-hand basin with storage, a w.c. and a wall-mounted heated towel rail.

There is scope to extend into the loft to create an additional bedroom with an ensuite, as many others on the road have done. (Subject to the relevant planning and investigations).

The current owners have made excellent use of the rear garden space. The garden is divided into various spaces. Entering the garden through the double doors from the kitchen/breakfast room, a large deck leads onto an area laid with wood chippings, with a block-paved stepping-stone pathway leading to an additional block-paved dining area. A corner planter offers a green backdrop with a combination of original wall and contemporary horizontal fencing enclosing the garden.

At the front, the property has an attractive rubble-stone Victorian façade, a paved front garden, and a wooden bike store.

The local independent shops, cafes, and restaurants along Gloucester Road and St Andrews Park are only a short walk away. The property is also near Bishop Road Primary School and Redland Green Secondary School. Redland and Montpelier Stations are within walking distance and offer a direct route into Templemeads or up to Clifton Downs. Nearby bus stops also provide access to arterial bus routes.
