Full Description: "Our daughter's recent birthday was such a special day. We had almost 30 people at the house and a four tier cake! The sun came out and we opened up the doors to the garden, people were sitting outside drinking coffee, kids were playing on the swing and we had dancing in the sitting room. The house was full of laughter and joy"<br /><br />The home<br /><br />Tucked just off North Street, this detached two-bedroom home has been designed with an exceptional level of thought, craftsmanship and attention to detail. Built around how the owners actually wanted to live, it combines bespoke joinery and natural materials to create an incredible space which feels practical, social and warm. <br /><br />The ground floor is arranged around a long, open run of living space with the sitting room towards the front and the kitchen and dining area opening directly onto the garden at the rear. The finish throughout is particularly distinctive with maple used extensively across the cabinetry, staircase and fitted storage alongside extra-wide English Elm flooring and underfloor heating.<br /><br />The sitting room is a quieter, more enclosed part of the house giving it a cosy feel without being cut off from the rest of the ground floor. It works particularly well for movie nights with a projector already set up. <br /><br />Moving towards the back of the house is the beautiful kitchen/ dining space. The cabinetry was designed and made by the owner, a furniture maker. The level of detail is far beyond a standard fitted kitchen from the bespoke maple fronts and carefully considered handles to the full-height storage and concealed pantry spaces. The kitchen itself runs along one wall with integrated appliances and generous worktop space while the dining area sits beneath a large skylight. At the rear full-width bifold doors open almost completely onto the garden allowing the whole space to work as one during the warmer months. <br /><br />Storage has been worked into almost every available area. One side of the staircase forms a full-height bookcase effectively creating a small library while the opposite side incorporates extensive larder storage. There are floor-to-ceiling cupboards, further fitted cabinetry and a built-in dining bench which also doubles as storage. There is also a ground-floor toilet along with further built-in storage around the entrance and hallway.<br /><br />Upstairs, the maple staircase continues the same material palette and leads to two bedrooms. The principal bedroom has a vaulted ceiling, rooflight and large window, giving it a bright an open feel. The second bedroom also benefits from its own large window and works well as either a bedroom, nursery or home office.<br /><br />The shower room is finished in deep green tiles with a large walk-in shower, wall-mounted fittings, timber detailing and a skylight above. It ties in neatly with the natural materials used throughout the rest of the house.<br /><br />The property is triple glazed and has underfloor heating throughout, along with a whole-house water filtration system, meaning every tap and shower is supplied with filtered water. Finally, this property is offered with no onward chain<br /><br />Outside space<br /><br />The garden is another particularly well thought-out part of the house. Rather than simply creating a paved courtyard, the space has been divided into a series of planted areas and seating areas with limestone paving, shingle, built-in benches, a small tree bringing some softness and seasonal change and a swing! <br /><br />The connection between inside and out is one of the best parts of the house. With the bifold doors fully open the kitchen and dining area runs almost seamlessly into the garden making both spaces feel larger.<br /><br />Living on Mount Pleasant Terrace <br /> <br />Mount Pleasant Terrace is an attractive terrace of Victorian houses in Southville just set back from North Street, the house lies close to North Street, a hub for local independents, restaurants, and shops, including Michelin recommended COR and OTHER, coffee shops Sweven and Burra, and The Tobacco Factory - a café, bar, and theatre that hosts a bustling Sunday market.<br /> <br />A short stroll across Gaol Ferry Bridge (15 minutes) will take you to Wapping Wharf - a vibrant foodie destination set on the edge of Bristol’s historic harbourside. It’s also located within a short distance of many green space including Victoria Park, Greville Smyth Park and Ashton Court<br /><br />
