3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Samuel White Road, Hanham BS15

"This house has been designed and renovated with a whole lot of love. My favourite part of the house is our open plan kitchen diner, the garden is beautiful and I love how outside merges with the inside."

The Home

Thoughtfully extended and carefully remodelled, this three-bedroom family home has been designed around the rhythms of modern life. Every intervention feels considered, creating spaces that balance openness with privacy and practicality with thoughtful design.

The approach offers an immediate sense of what's to come. Off-street parking for two vehicles sits alongside a contemporary zinc-clad extension, introducing a subtle architectural quality that distinguishes the home while sitting comfortably within its surroundings.

Inside, the entrance leads into a welcoming sitting room, where Venetian plaster walls and a bespoke media unit create a calm and understated space to retreat to. It feels separate from the more sociable spaces beyond, offering a welcome contrast as the house unfolds towards the rear.

The kitchen, dining and family room forms the natural heart of the home. Extended to create a generous open-plan environment, it is a space designed as much for everyday living as it is for entertaining. A large central island naturally becomes the focal point, somewhere for morning coffee, family meals or catching up at the end of the day, while extensive cabinetry and carefully considered storage ensure the room works effortlessly in practice.

Natural light pours through large bi-fold doors that open directly onto the garden, allowing the distinction between inside and out to soften during the warmer months. The result is a space that feels connected, calm and wonderfully easy to live in.

Practicality has been given equal attention. A separate utility room and ground-floor WC quietly support the day-to-day running of the house, while an additional room to the side offers valuable flexibility. Whether used as a home office, playroom, studio or gym, it provides the adaptability that increasingly defines contemporary family living.

Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms are arranged around a beautifully finished family bathroom, complete with both a separate bath and walk-in shower. The principal bedroom benefits from extensive fitted storage, while a boarded loft provides excellent storage today and offers exciting scope for future conversion, subject to the necessary consents.

Outside

The rear garden has been landscaped with the same thoughtful approach found inside. Enjoying a sunny south-facing aspect, it has been designed to maximise time spent outdoors while remaining wonderfully easy to maintain. Immediately outside the house, a generous terrace extends the living accommodation and provides a natural setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. Beyond, an artificial lawn offers a practical space for children to play throughout the year, framed by contemporary fencing and carefully chosen planting that softens the overall landscape.

The zinc-clad extension provides a distinctive architectural backdrop to the garden, reinforcing the considered nature of the home's design without ever dominating it. Balancing thoughtful architecture with everyday practicality, this is a home that has evolved with family life in mind. Flexible, light-filled and beautifully resolved, it offers spaces that feel every bit as enjoyable to live in as they are to look at.

Conham River Park is just minutes away and is an oasis in Bristol with riverside walks, home to lots of wildlife such as Kingfishers and Cormorants as well as providing access via a short boat crossing to Beeses’s bar and garden, which sits next to and overlooks the river.
