3 Bed Terraced House, Single Let, Bristol, BS1 6UU, £490,000

"We love living right by the harbourside, perfect for strolls and sunny pints at the many great pubs close by. Most days, I'll do the short walk to Wapping Wharf to get a coffee and a pastry whilst trying to get the baby to sleep. The other direction from our house you can walk to Leigh Woods and Ashton Court if you need an escape from the city".

Located in the bustling Spike Island district of Bristol is Sydney Row, an eclectic mix of period homes in one of the most historic parts of the city. Arguably the most famous attraction in the city, the S.S Great Britain, is harboured next to the Bristol Marina, which is in addition to a variety of art exhibitions and museums nearby, including the iconic M Shed. Just a short walk away is Wapping Wharf, which has fast become one of Bristol’s most iconic and desirable settings for living, eating and socialising. The area around Gaol Ferry Steps is now home to several stylish homes, trendy bars and boutique shops within both Cargo One and Cargo Two, which came as two phases of retail and restaurant space, largely occupied for local independent businesses. The area was built on Bristol’s harbourside area, across the water from the busier city centre. Across the river to the south of the City Centre is the Southville and Bedminster area, which offers a range of popular eateries, bars and shops. For commuters, the area is ideal with several major employers just on the doorstep, including Lloyds Bank and Hargreaves Lansdown who are based on the Harbourside along with several major law firms around Redcliffe and Temple Quay and other industries around the centre of Bristol and up into Clifton. Access out of the city from this area is also straightforward with buses running frequently along the adjacent Cumberland Road to Bristol Airport and the nearby A4 and M32 providing access to the M5 and M4 respectively. For those looking for quiet walks there are pleasant routes around the Harbourside but the nearby Ashton Court and Greville Smyth Park also provide expansive green space for running, dog walking and off-road cycling.

A versatile and vibrant period home, split over three levels in the heart of BS1. Entrance is into an open hallway, running along side the kitchen cabinets leading to the open plan living space. Pops of colour tastefully contrast each other, creating a contemporary space benefitting from the period charm. The living area displays double patio doors leading to the low maintenance courtyard garden facing a north easterly direction. Progressing to the first floor, an elegant bathroom suite is on the initial right, featuring mosaic style tiling running underfoot, navy wall tiles and a separate bath and shower. Adjacent, is the newly decorated second reception room/bedroom, displaying quaint alcove storage and carpet flooring. Moving to the second floor, you find the final two bedrooms, with the master sitting at the front of the property, mirroring the room below in regards to size and decoration. The third bedroom completes the interior, offering substantial character due to the fireplace and alcoves, also providing great views across the harbour to the colourful houses of Clifton Wood.
