“We love living in Totterdown, it's such a friendly community to be a part of. Our street is near all the local shops and pubs, but feels calm, quiet and friendly. Our neighbours on both sides are lovely, we'll miss them. As two self-employed creatives, being able to each have a workspace at home has been amazing! We also love looking at the view of Bristol at sunset out of our bedroom window. Our friends kids all love the house thanks to its fun layout- they call it the lighthouse!”
