"We’ve absolutely loved living here – it’s bright and airy with tonnes of natural light. We get the benefit of living really centrally, right on the harbourside with all of the great restaurants and bars on our doorstep, yet coming home feels like retreating to our own private haven. We'll especially miss our garden, where we can throw open the double doors on sunny days, relax outside with friends, and enjoy BBQs."
Flour house is on the site of the old General Hospital, a contemporary residential development, completed just five years ago. The luxury apartments were built by City and Country, a well respected developer building high quality homes whilst restoring architectural heritage. The area has quickly become one of the most desirable developments in the whole of Bristol to live in. Flour House is a quiet oasis in the bustling heart of Bristol which houses not one but two Michelin Star restaurants in Casa and Paco Tapas as well as being within easy reach of the increasingly popular Wapping Wharf. This 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 on the area known as Spike Island. 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. One of the key selling points for The General is that it is only a short 15 minute walk to Temple Meads which is ideal for those looking to commute out of the City or escape for a weekend away. For those looking for quiet walks, there are pleasant routes around the Harbourside but the nearby Ashton Court and Victoria Park also provide expansive green space for running, dog walking and off-road cycling.
