Islington Road, Southville

"Having lived in the area for years, I felt like I’d hit the jackpot when I found this flat after months of searching. Just a five-minute walk from the buzz of North Street and Wapping Wharf, it offers the best of city living while feeling calm and tucked away. The light is what makes the flat truly special. Every room is filled with natural light throughout the day, creating a bright, uplifting atmosphere and making it a wonderful place to come home to. The garden is a peaceful green retreat in the heart of the city, perfect for a morning coffee or unwinding at the end of the day."

Living in Southville

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.
