‘St Luke’s Crescent, and Totterdown more generally, will always be special for us as our first house together - we handpicked the area and waited patiently, trusting that the right house would come up at the right time (in the right shade of orange), which it did.
And we’re so glad we ended up here - the general warmth of both the house and area means we’ve never been short of visitors and having Victoria Park and the river (and places like the Star & Dove, Oxford and Bakehouse) on the doorstep has been amazing.’
St Luke's Crescent is a quiet cul de sac to the west of Totterdown and adjacent to the beautiful Victoria Park and the north of Perretts Park. This quiet street has the best of both worlds, with a fantastic array of cafes, restaurants and independent shops on Wells Road, as well as the open green spaces of South Bristol. Places on Wells Road, such as Fox & West, an independent cafe and greengrocers selling a diversity of local produce, Southside Bar and Farrow's Fish & Chips offer some of the best options in the city. Green spaces are in plentiful supply, with Arnos Vale being an idyllic Victorian garden cemetery with the cafe at its heart, the incredible views of Perrett Park, as well as the 50 acres of Victoria Park. Totterdown offers easy access to and from the city, with Bath Road offering an easy link to Bath, the Portway taking you to the M5 and the M32 to the M4 and beyond. Temple Mead Train Station is also a short walk or cycle away, offering connections nationally. Travelling southwards, you find yourself in the Mendips, an area of outstanding natural beauty.
This charming two bedroom home is packed full of character as well as being light and bright throughout. The ground floor is home to a living room to the front with bay window and Victorian fireplace. To the rear is the kitchen with modern units and space for a kitchen table. There is also a very handy downstairs utility room with plenty of storage. Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a bathroom. The decked garden is accessed up some steps and is the perfect spot for a summer BBQ or an evening drink.
