Summary - 31 MAIN ROAD SHORTWOOD BRISTOL BS16 9NH
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Period semi with large garden, off-street parking and scope to improve energy efficiency.
Two double bedrooms with built-in storage
This well-proportioned two-bedroom semi sits on Main Road in Mangotsfield, offering comfortable family living in a large 915 sq ft footprint. The sitting room's bay window and fireplace create a cosy focal point while a separate dining room provides flexible space for family meals or a home office. A generous rear garden and allocated off-street parking add practical everyday benefits for a household.
The house retains period character — stone facade, exposed beams and a multi-fuel stove — and has double glazing installed after 2002. The property is freehold, in an affluent, low-crime area with good local schools and fast broadband, making it suitable for families or professionals seeking semi-rural living with commuter conveniences.
Buyers should note material points: heating is by an oil-fired boiler (running costs and future replacement to consider) and the original stone walls are likely uninsulated, so additional insulation works could be needed to improve efficiency. The home has a single bathroom and dates from c.1900–1929, so expect some period-era maintenance and possible modernisation to suit contemporary tastes.
Overall this is a solid family home with immediate liveability and clear scope to add value through energy efficiency improvements and cosmetic updating. Its large garden, useful layout and convenient parking will appeal to buyers wanting space and character in a quiet village setting.
