This extended five-bedroom detached house, built circa 1960, offers generous family living in a sought-after Westbury-on-Trym location. Recent internal and external upgrades include a new high-quality kitchen with marble worktops, integrated appliances and a rear two-storey extension creating a bright open-plan family and dining area with bifold doors to terraces and garden. The principal and guest suites provide comfortable, private accommodation for parents and visitors.
The landscaped, tiered rear garden is a notable feature: elevated lawn, lower terraces, an outdoor kitchen, bar area and pergola create a strong outdoor entertaining flow, plus an elevated terrace at the front for afternoon and evening sunsets. Practical benefits include a carriage drive, single garage and generous plot size that affords privacy and scope for further garden use or extension subject to planning.
The house sits close to Elmlea Junior and Infant Schools (both outstanding) and other well-regarded local schools, making it especially suitable for families. Transport links are convenient for Bristol city centre and the M4/M5 corridors; local shops, eateries and green spaces are within easy reach.
Known negatives are set out plainly: the EPC is rated D and the property’s solid brick construction is assumed to have no built-in insulation, so buyers should budget for potential energy-efficiency improvements. Council tax is noted as quite expensive. While the house has been comprehensively renovated during the current ownership, interested buyers should check exact dates of glazing and mechanical upgrades and allow for routine updating over time.
