“The flat is in a great location with loads of nice places in Old Market to eat, drink and be entertained. The building, which used to be home to the Bristol Post, is a unique building unlike so many flats in the area and with its high ceilings there’s loads of wall space for art. We have great memories of inviting friends back to ours for the 'afters', and living on the ground floor with only one neighbour to the side means you don't have to worry too much about making noise whilst dancing round the living room."

You enter immediately into the living space, with a seating area to your left with two large windows encompassing the space. Moving through you find the contemporary kitchen with matching wall & base units, along with a variety of integrated appliances. A large hallway greets you, with a sizeable cupboard and first bedroom to your left, with a double wardrobe to your right. The primary bedroom boasts an ensuite and bold decoration. Adjacent is a second double bedroom, currently utilised as an office, with a family bathroom suite next to it, tastefully completing the accommodation. Regarding cladding and BSA 2022, the building behind which is part of the same address has recently had all of their cladding replaced. An EWS1 form has now been provided for the whole development.
