Property details

"Saying goodbye to this home is hard. Having viewed over 30 houses in Greenbank and with the agent (who by the end was a good friend!) totally exasperated with us, as soon as we stepped inside 16 Carlyle Road we knew we had been right to hold on for that ‘something special’ - the south facing aspect and a garden set in the middle of the quadrant is simply a haven.

We moved in when our daughter was just three months old - and there was no heating! We’ve worked tirelessly over the years to create some sparkle inside and out, and we have made friends for life in the area. Now work takes us away from Bristol, but the Carlyle Road community will always be in our hearts. It was a brilliant house to survive lockdown in - being able to ‘walk to work’ in the garden office and with so much support and cheer on your doorstep.

The local school remains the best school we could have hoped for, having so many young families on our road and in nearby streets was simply wonderful (Halloween every year is a spectacle, as is the Carlyle Road Street Party) - our daughters have still not forgiven us for moving!

The house has held many fabulous parties and events - the disco ball may now be in our new house, but the memories will always remain.

It has been a happy and comfortable family home and we wish the new owners many exciting times ahead."

Carlyle Road is a quiet terraced street offering a particularly tranquil spot within this vibrant residential area of the city, placed between Greenbank Cemetery and the Bristol Bath Cycle Path. Greenbank is renowned for its distinctive character and community spirit, and boasts a host of local amenities, attractions and community events that draw many visitors from outside the area. The area is well connected to the city centre and beyond by bike, road and train. The M32 and the A431 to Bath are both easily accessible. The area is also home to a number of Bristol's finest independent shops and eateries, hugely popular with locals and visitors alike. Situated along St Marks Road are Bristol Sweet Mart, Thali Café, East Bristol Bakery, and The Garden of Easton. Also close by are No 12 Café, The Greenbank pub, Este Kitchen, Matter Wholefoods, and Public Market. This house is a short walk away from Whitehall Primary School that is consistently rated ‘outstanding’ by Ofsted, while May Park is a similarly well-regarded local option. Also close by are Easton Leisure Centre, Easton Cowboys and Cowgirls Sports Club and the Bristol Hawks Gymnastics Club, a city-wide family activity attraction. The area offers a surprising wealth of green spaces including the Greenbank Cemetery, the parks at Eastville and St George, and riverside walks along the nearby Frome Valley, and just minutes from the house is the locally cherished Bristol to Bath Cycle Path, ideal for commuting quickly into the city centre or just for weekend strolls, long runs or bike rides.

Nestled into the beautiful Greenbank community is this stunning three bedroom double bay fronted home with a substantial south-west facing garden. Upon entry, you are met by restored wooden floorboards that lead through to an open-plan living space. The living room has bespoke fit shelving and cupboards to either side of the chimney breast, with an open-fire in between. The dining room opens up onto a kitchen with wooden work surfaces and units to either side of the room, as well as farmhouse tiling. To the back of the kitchen there is a sunny morning room with bifold doors that open up onto the garden. The first floor comprises two double bedrooms, both with restored floorboards, and a bathroom housing a bath, as well as a shower. The second floor is a double bedroom with large skylights and eaves storage to either side. Through the bifolds to the garden, there is a substantial south-west facing garden with an office room at the bottom.

This fantastic family home comes with no onward chain.
