2 bed terraced house for sale

Sherbourne Street, St George BS5

Walking 30 seconds and being transported from the vibrant and busy Church Road, to the quiet oasis of the house. It's remarkable! I also love the sun trap garden. As a complete rarity, it is almost entirely not overlooked, despite being a terrace. This is thanks to high enough garden walls and having no back door neighbours and lots of planting around. I can sit very peacefully in the garden all day with my olive tree in the background; I really feel like i'm in the Mediterranean!

The home

A characterful Victorian terrace on Sherbourne Street, arranged over two floors and finished throughout with real personality and warmth.

The front reception room is a bright and generous living room, centred on an original fireplace with an ornate ceiling rose overhead, and a bay window drawing in plenty of light. Floor to ceiling fitted shelving makes good use of the alcoves, while a gallery of artwork and a decorative round mirror add further character. To the rear, the kitchen and dining room continues the individual style, painted in a rich green with white cabinetry and open shelving, with room for a dining table and original archway detailing adding a period touch. Beyond this, a study to the rear offers further flexible space, ideal as a home office, with a downstairs WC completing the ground floor. A staircase rises from the hallway to the first floor, with useful bike storage tucked beneath.

Upstairs, the home offers two bedrooms and the family bathroom. The main bedroom is a calm, well-proportioned double, fitted with mirrored sliding wardrobes and finished in a soft green palette. The second bedroom is styled with real individuality, with a striking decorative fan as a feature piece and warm wooden furniture. The bathroom is fitted with a walk in shower, a bath, and characterful patterned tile flooring.

The outside space

To the rear, a paved courtyard garden makes for a real suntrap, walled for privacy and softened by a mature olive tree and abundant potted planting, and there's a dedicated seating area ideal for al fresco dining in the warmer months.

Living in St George

Sherbourne Street is a residential road off the ever-popular Church Road, an area with so much to offer. Nearby St George's Park is one of the city's most popular parks, providing a kids play area, tennis courts, a cafe, a skate park and a lake. The area has many exciting independent shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants, like the very popular Native Vine, Red Church and The Bristol Loaf.

The shops and cafes of Easton are also easily accessible via the Bristol to Bath cycle path, including Staple Bakery, Garden of Easton and Bristol Sweet Mart. There are several well-regarded schools in the area, meaning this is a popular spot with families. For commuters, it's a short journey into Bristol city centre by bus, bike or car, whilst also being just a short drive from Bath and the motorway networks. From this side of the city centre, Bristol Temple Meads is just a short journey away.
