Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

Bristol has frequently been voted best UK City to live.. Here's a link to an article about the city in The Times (October 2020)
https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/a-guide-to-moving-to-bristol-j5v7t3rqx?shareToken=db7226959a1bafa7c09a427c1901d914

Our home is a1860s terraced house overlooking the historic harbour and the Somerset hills - probably the most spectacular view in Bristol. Clifton Wood has a quiet bohemian village atmosphere but is also just minutes from Clifton Village, the Avon Gorge and all the cultural activities and attractions of the City Centre. Close to Bristol University. The city is increasingly known for its fesivals and events so a great swap if you wish to visit when these are taking place.

The house has two floors at the front and three at the back, with a lovely garden and terrace overlooking the harbour.

It is one of Bristol's famous "painted houses" and frequently features in articles about Bristol's most beautiful streets - see this from October 2020 https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/news/bristol-news/gallery/bristols-most-beautiful-streets-16-4613907
