Rownham Mead, Hotwells, Bristol, BS8

Rownham Mead is an attractive harbourside development built on the site of the former Merchants’ Dock in the mid-1980s. The style of the development gives more than a passing nod to the area’s industrial past, with mix of townhouses and low-rise apartments reminiscent of the traditional redbrick warehouses and yards of the area’s former life. The apartment is positioned centrally within the development and has a pleasant outlook. The vibrancy of the quayside is within a minute’s walk, offering incredible lifestyle opportunities around and on the stunning waterway that bisects the old city. Pubs, cafés, restaurants, historic museums, and water-based sports are all available locally, making Hotwells a highly desirable residential location.

The apartment is positioned on the second floor and has a spacious, bright and airy feel throughout. The living space in particular benefits from a pleasant outlook. It is well zoned, offering a comfortable lounge area and distinct dining space adjacent to the terrace, space for a desk, and also has the kitchen leading directly off. With three windows, as well as French style doors onto the terrace, it is a very light space. The terrace offers enough space for a bistro table and chairs to enjoy some private outside space.

The kitchen is modern, having been fitted in 2024 and is also light and bright with window to the rear, built-in electric oven and gas hob, and wall mounted gas fired boiler discreetly tucked into a cupboard. All white goods (fridge/freezer, combo washing/drier and integrated hob/oven) are being sold with the property.

Both bedrooms are double sized and positioned at the rear of the building. Along with the bathroom they are accessed via the apartment’s hallway. The bathroom features a white suite with electric shower over the bath.

The garage is positioned under the building and is the second from the left-hand side. Residents are able to park in front of their garage. There is also permit parking available and the ability to purchase visitor permits alongside. The development retains a number of well-maintained green spaces, passages and paths for enjoyment and access to the harbourside.
