Our Thoughts
“… If you think back to the industrial and commercial heritage of our locality it is not surprising, every now and then, to come across a property that has been designed and developed by someone with an eye to quality and without saving the odd “ha’porth of tar”. “Hillrise” is such a property; extended twice in its relatively short history this fine bungalow occupies a commanding, hillside, position on the edge of the village of Alveston and sits in a delightful “parkland” garden measuring a little over one and three quarter acres. Built of brick with pebbledash and rendered elevations the property has been assiduously maintained over the years and, although there are changes you will want to make decoratively speaking, you will find substance and quality everywhere. With versatile accommodation the property boasts a minimum of three bedrooms and that is if you accept the other three major rooms as reception areas; in addition there is a fine family kitchen with additional utility room and small WC. With an en-suite shower in one of the bedrooms and a large family bathroom as well there is ample scope for guests or even the hint of the property being suitable for joint occupation. The large double garage is also of interest as this also could be thought of as versatile accommodation.
I wish I was a more adept horticulturalist as then I could do justice to the magnificent parkland garden that surrounds this jewel. I did, in fairness, recognise the statuesque eucalyptus tree as I did the silver birches and the flowering cherry’s but there is such a multiplicity and profusion of planting you would need Capability Brown himself to describe them… suffice to say, if you want a big garden – this is the one. So whether you are looking for a place to consolidate your family or a very special place in which to retire and practice your horticultural wizardry “Hillrise” could well be what you are looking for …”
Directions
From our offices turn left and drive out of Thornbury past the leisure centre ascending the hill toward Alveston. After the bend the gateway to Hillrise is about 275 yards [250 metres] up on the right hand side.
