Bristol, BS36 1JU

Tucked into a small collection of just five homes, this property on Tan Green is a house that feels quietly adaptable. It works equally well for those needing space to grow into, those working from home, or those looking to simplify without giving up comfort or connection. The house sits well back from the road and feels notably peaceful inside. Visitors often comment on how well they sleep here, helped by the efficient glazing and the calm feel of the setting. All three bedrooms are generous doubles, with the principal bedroom enjoying long views across open fields to the rear. Even during the recent heat, this room has remained remarkably cool. Daily life naturally centres around the kitchen diner. It is a comfortable, practical space that stays pleasantly cool through much of the day and has become the heart of the home for mornings and relaxed lunches. The living room, by contrast, enjoys the afternoon and evening sun. In winter it often holds enough warmth that heating is hardly needed, making it an inviting place to settle at the end of the day. The house has proved both economical and comfortable to run. Gas central heating is served by a combi boiler, with individual radiator thermostats and a HIVE smart heating system allowing easy control when away from home. Excellent insulation keeps the house warm through winter and surprisingly cool during summer months. Water pressure is also particularly good. The current owner has made thoughtful improvements over time, including Karndean flooring throughout the ground floor, built-in wardrobes and storage to two bedrooms, additional curtain fittings and a pull-out larder unit in the kitchen. Broadband has comfortably supported working from home, and TV points are already in place in the living room, kitchen diner and principal bedroom. Outside, the garden has been carefully landscaped to make the most of both sun and shade. A sheltered seating area near the kitchen provides welcome relief on warmer days, while the rest of the garden enjoys sunlight across much of the day before lingering into the evening on the right-hand side. Two separate seating areas allow you to follow the sun or simply enjoy different aspects of the garden. The setting is particularly private, with secure fencing and uninterrupted views across fields behind. There is also further flexibility here. The loft already benefits from flooring and a window, making it an attractive option for conversion, whether as a fourth bedroom, hobby space or a dedicated home office. Life in Winterbourne has an easy rhythm to it. The village centre, with its pharmacy, Post Office, Co-op and bakery, is only a short walk away, while bus services to Bristol, Yate, Cribbs Causeway and Bristol Parkway Station are around five minutes on foot. For those commuting or enjoying regular days out, Bristol city centre and its theatres are readily accessible. The surrounding area is particularly appealing for those who enjoy being outdoors. There are numerous walking routes in every direction, including paths through open countryside and along the River Frome. Daisy's Café is a local favourite for coffee, while The Globe in Frampton Cotterell remains a much-loved spot for lunch or an evening meal. Bradley Stoke's gym facilities are around seven minutes away, and both Cribbs Causeway and Yate offer convenient shopping within easy reach. What the current owner will miss most is the balance this home provides. Village amenities on the doorstep, countryside views from the garden, peaceful nights, and a house that quietly adapts to changing needs. It is a home that has comfortably suited families, professionals and downsizers alike, and one that has made everyday life feel particularly easy.
