This well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached house on Bristol Hill has been refurbished to a high standard and suits a small family looking for ready-to-move-in accommodation in a peaceful village setting. The ground floor flows from a large sitting room with defined snug into a bright kitchen/diner with bifold glazing and underfloor heating — a practical layout for everyday family life and entertaining. The main bedroom benefits from a Georgian-style bay with partial river views.
Practical features include a substantial garage with rear access, a tiered rear garden arranged for entertaining, built-in storage and modern fittings throughout. Modern upgrades noted during the renovation include inset spotlighting, USB points and a wall-mounted Baxi boiler (LPG) supplying heating; the kitchen and bathrooms are tiled and finished to contemporary standards.
Notable considerations are factual and important: the property sits on solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation (as built), and uses oil/LPG-fuelled services rather than mains gas — this can mean higher running costs and different servicing requirements. The plot is modest with a small front garden; the garage is accessed from School Road which may be narrow. Broadband speeds are average despite excellent mobile signal.
Located in Shotley Gate, the home benefits from a strong local community, riverside walks, sailing facilities and independent schools nearby. At the stated guide price this freehold property offers a renovated period home with genuine village lifestyle appeal, but buyers should factor in fuel type and potential wall insulation improvements when budgeting.
