5 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

'When we bought the house it was a three bedroom semi. It was enlarged with an extension and loft conversion to cater for the needs of ageing parents and a growing family, thus we now have six bedrooms, (or five plus extra living space) and a large storage area. The large insulated garden room is a great feature which we have really enjoyed making the most out of over the years, for work and for the family. The Crescent is a wonderful place to live with easy access to local schools and shops. Our house is located in a particularly quiet spot, with some of the best views in the area from the back of the house. One of our best decisions was the installation of the solar energy which means cheap power plus the excess is sold to the grid tax free.'

The Crescent is one of Henleaze most sought after roads, tucked away within a quiet residential area, with substantial 1930s and 50s homes, benefitting from generous size plots. The Crescent is a short walk from Henleaze Road with a range of pubs, cafes and shops, such as the popular Henleaze Garden Shop. Further down the road is Northumbria Drive, where there is Waitrose, the fantastic Westbury Park Pub and Kitchen, Scott Cinemas, The Little Shop & Pantry alongside another high street, North View, that again, leads up to the Clifton Downs. Both a short distance away, Gloucester Road and Whiteladies Road have a host of independent cafes, shops, and restaurants, while the city centre is a little bit further still or a short cycle or bus ride in. The quiet roads of Henleaze offer a brilliant environment to walk, cycle and run, whilst a series of footpaths run around the area linking up the residents to the green areas and sports facilities of Horfield Common and the Golden Hill Sports Ground. The 400 acres of The Downs is also just a short walk away.

With over 2800 square feet of space, this home is ideal for those looking for space for hobbies, work or exercising at home or for larger or multi-generational family living. The house is arranged over three stories with a private rear garden housing a spacious, insulated outbuilding with power and electric, once used as a film editing suite, but ideal for a gym, studio or office for a business to run from. The home has several appealing features like the original solid wooden parque flooring and whilst some updating may be required in areas, there is lots of potential options for how it could be configured. The home has been updated to improve its efficiency and running costs, with 15 solar panels on the roof providing plenty of electricity and the sellers informing us they can sell the excess back to the grid tax free. This practical home offers parking to the front for two cars, plus a garage space, which could be converted back to a double garage if needed. The house has once been used with a separate flat to the first floor, which could be reinstated if required, as services are still present. Offered to the market with no onward chain, we strongly recommend viewing this home to see the space on offer.
