3 bed terraced house for sale

Maple Road, Horfield BS7

"This has been such a happy, sunlit home for our family, and we've had years of great get-togethers in our much-loved modern open-plan kitchen and dining space. Living here means being part of a wonderfully friendly neighbourhood, with Gloucester Road and Henleaze High Street just a short stroll away. For our family, the Common has been a joy, evening walks, playground trips, and community life at their cafe, sauna and neighbourhood events. Catchment area for Redland Green - which was great for our daughter, and great primary schools. It has truly been the perfect, peaceful place to watch our family grow."

The home

A beautifully extended family home on one of Horfield’s most sought-after roads, backing directly onto the open green space of Horfield Common with private gated access from the garden. This thoughtfully renovated three-bedroom home blends character, colour and contemporary design in a way that feels both stylish and effortlessly liveable. The heart of the house is the impressive rear kitchen/dining/living space; a wonderfully sociable room flooded with natural light from large skylights and expansive aluminium bi-fold doors that open seamlessly onto the garden terrace. The space has a warm, creative feel with rich engineered walnut flooring, granite worktops, bespoke touches and a wood-burning stove anchoring the sitting area, while the modern kitchen offers generous worktop space, integrated storage and a central island perfect for everyday living and entertaining alike.

To the front of the property is a separate living room with bay window and another wood-burning stove, creating a cosy retreat away from the open-plan space. A stylish downstairs WC and useful hallway storage complete the ground floor. Upstairs, there are three well-proportioned bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes, while the rear bedrooms enjoy lovely open views across Horfield Common. There is also excellent potential to convert the loft space, subject to the necessary consents, as many neighbouring homes have done. EPC has been ordered. Within the sellers twelve year tenure, a new boiler has been fitted, a new electrical consumer unit installed and the roof has been re-felted.

The outside space

Externally, the northwest-facing garden is a real highlight. Designed with entertaining and family life in mind, it features a solid slate patio with a covered canopy directly off the kitchen, mature planting, lawned areas and a fantastic garden room/studio positioned at the rear of the plot. The garden room is fully insulated and features electric/power. Beyond this is direct gated access onto Horfield Common, giving the property an unusually open and green backdrop rarely found in the area.
