Islington Road, Southville

“I feel very lucky to have found this bright garden flat on Islington Road. The garden has been such a source of joy for me - learning to grow my own veg and enjoying a peaceful morning coffee or drinks in the sun with friends. I’ve spent many weekends mooching the local farmer’s market and charity shops, catching up with friends in the Spotted Cow, enjoying countless coffees from Sweven, yoga classes in Wapping Wharf and running around Ashton Court. I’ll definitely miss it.”

The property is situated on Islington Road, in between North Street and Coronation Road in Southville. Close by there are two footbridges across the river to reach the Harbourside area of the city and further onto Wapping Wharf, an area 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. Southville itself has long been one of the most popular parts of Bristol to live in. North Street is very nearby and is home to a number of popular bars and eateries such as The Tobacco factory, the popular Souk Kitchen, Cor as well as highly regarded cafes such as Sweven and Marks Bread. Crossing the river from Southville, you are just minutes from all Bristol City Centre has to offer. For those who work in the city, the commute by foot or bike is short and painless, whilst the journey home after an evening in a city is also straightforward and advantageous on foot rather than negotiating city centre traffic.
