Windermere, Main Road, Bristol

A very stunning detached family house, with a south-westerly rear garden, set in a convenient village community to the north of Bristol.

This detached house started out life as the show home for the Prospect Close development, but in more recent times has been significantly extended and improved. When the current owners bought it, the house had four bedrooms and a small bathroom, so they decided to convert one of the bedrooms into an extra bathroom (meaning they could then provide an en-suite to the master bedroom) and what a great job they have done! Downstairs, a full-width single-storey extension has been added, providing an absolutely fantastic open-plan living room incorporating sitting, dining, breakfast and kitchen areas, greatly enhanced by bifold doors and additional french doors out to the rear garden. There is also a separate lounge, of good size, which serves as a cool retreat in the height of summer or a cosy snug in winter. There is a downstairs shower room and boot room, with potential to knock through into an office (converted from what was a garage) that could become a fourth bedroom and en-suite – ideal if you need a granny or teenager annexe, or space for a lodger or au pair. This is a very lovely house, as you will see if you watch our film at https://homeonfilm.live/v1/10007/RS0232
