“We’ve loved living nestled between the peaceful Greenbank Cemetery, nature reserve and endless open spaces of Eastville Park. As the garden is south-east facing, we’ve really enjoyed how it becomes a sun trap, with the sun shining through the house all day, making the kitchen especially nice in the summer for entertaining, opening the doors onto the sunny decking. The area is very peaceful but close to so many interesting places, we’ve often chosen to spend a weekend in the nearby Greenbank and Easton communities, exploring the range of coffee shops on Fishponds High Street, walking to St Werburghs, catching the little train from Stapleton Road, or cycling 15 minutes down the Bristol to Bath railway path into central Bristol or a few hours out to Bath. The house is bright and airy in the summer, and we’ve enjoyed how cosy it feels in the winter, especially as the roof solar panels provide us with year-round sustainable energy.”
