JOINT AGENT WITH CHRISTOPHERS CHARTERED SURVEYORSHengrove is a residential area located in the southern part of Bristol. It's predominantly a mix of housing, green spaces, and local amenities. Historically, it was more rural but has evolved over time into a more urbanised area as Bristol has expanded.One of the notable features of Hengrove is its proximity to the Hengrove Park, which is a large public space offering plenty of recreational opportunities. It's home to a few sports facilities and is quite popular for walking, running, and family outings. There's also the Hengrove Leisure Centre, which provides gym facilities and a swimming pool, making it a great spot for fitness enthusiasts.In terms of transportation, Hengrove has good bus links to central Bristol, and it's not far from the A37, which connects the area to other parts of the city and beyond. It's a relatively quiet area, so it's often favoured by families or those looking for a bit more peace compared to more bustling city centre locations.BrochuresParticulars
