4 Bed Detached House For Sale

"It was love at first sight that moment 22 years ago when I first viewed Langford Villa; the original features were largely intact and the high ceilings and generous room proportions were immediately appealing. The garden was then fairly neglected and, I have to admit, it was tempting to focus on this area ahead of some of the house projects. However common sense prevailed and a number of sympathetic improvements were undertaken including the 2nd floor loft conversion, the ground floor shower room addition, a complete electrical rewiring of the house and replacement of some of the non-period fireplaces with more authentic ones. The garden has over time been lovingly nurtured and is now very well stocked with a good variety of ornamental plants framed by the resident apple trees.

It has been an absolute pleasure and real privilege to have lived here. Notwithstanding the house’s obvious attractions, Jubilee Road itself is a fantastic warm place to live; the neighbours are extremely friendly and helpful, the location is a stone’s throw from Troopers Hill nature reserve and woods, yet walk 5 minutes in the other direction and you have the shops, bars, cafes and general buzz of Church Road. A real Win Win in my opinion."

Jubilee Road is situated in a quiet pocket of St George, just off The Avenue, on the hill above Crews Hole and very close to the iconic Troopers Hill, a landmark for East Bristol. The area is popular for having scenic walks nearby along the river, through woodland and parks. St George’s Park is one of the city’s most popular parks and includes tennis courts, a café, a skate park and a lake. There are also plenty of shops and cafes nearby in St George, such as the Orchard Café and The Faraway Tree, with several good eateries having recently established on Church Road. The shops and cafes of Easton and Hanham also give residents options in different directions. There are several well-regarded schools in the area, meaning this is a popular area with families. For commuters, the area is 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 as well. From this side of the City Centre, Bristol Temple Meads is just a short journey away.

Placed on Jubilee Road is this substantial four-bedroom semi-detached Victorian home. Upon entry, you are met by a large hallway with stunning cornicing and a door that leads through to the front reception room that has original wooden flooring, stunning fireplace, and period cornicing. The theme of wooden floorboards continues into the second reception room with French doors that opens out onto the conservatory. The kitchen has solid wood countertops that line one side of the room, whilst the oven is nestled into the chimney breast. The utility sits to the back of the kitchen that also houses a shower room. The first floor comprises three double bedrooms, with the second bedroom having bespoke-fit wardrobes, and a bathroom, whilst the second floor has another bedroom. There is a large south-west facing well-stocked garden to the rear lined with plants and trees, as well as having side and rear access, ideal for those who cycle.
