Kelston Road, Manor Farm

"This flat has been the perfect first home for us. Windows in all directions catch the sun at all times of day, and the wrap around kitchen and living room arrangement has offered extensive possibilities to make the place our own. The outside area and attached garage were the real selling point, which gave us the freedom to have garden and workshop too."

Kelston Road is a quiet, largely residential road of houses and some flats. The road is on the edge of Henleaze and just a short walk from both Westbury-on-Trym and Horfield. A short walk from the house is Badock’s Wood, a popular location for dog walkers and runner, whilst Horfield Common is just a short walk too, with tennis court, football goals and a brilliant leisure centre. Close by to the street is the picturesque Henleaze Swimming Lake, with a beautiful walk surrounding the perimeter, ideal for dog walkers. The recently expanded Southmead Hospital is a short walk to the north, the development of which has enhanced the popularity of the area, both with investment buyers and with owner occupiers wanting to be close to their place of work. Other major areas of employment such as Airbus, Rolls-Royce and the Ministry of Defence are also close by, with many employees living in this area. The position of Southmead, in the north-west of Bristol, is also very convenient both for getting into the city centre and out to the motorway for those who regularly travel further afield. Junction 17 of the M5 is just a five-minute drive away and allows easy access to the South West, the Midlands or the South East.
