2 bedroom flat

"We fell in love with our flat in the Paintworks from the minute we viewed it. As our first home, we knew we wanted somewhere special and we definitely found it. Our favourite thing to do was sit in the living room window and have breakfast together, watching the scenery change with the seasons. We felt so welcomed into the Paintworks community, and made so many great friends - many an evening spent at Boccabar over discounted pizza! We will always remember our time at the Paintworks so fondly."

The Paintworks is a fantastic modern development situated just off Bath Road. It is highly-regarded, being ‘a genuine attempt to regenerate a mixed use district centred primarily on a sense of community and in so doing provide a model for others to build on elsewhere’. There are 331 residential dwellings within the Paintworks, but this is far from a simple residential development. According to their website there was a ‘desire to place different uses side by side and to open up communal areas within the buildings. The mix of creative tenants, exhibition/event space and popular café/bar quickly defined a distinctive emerging character in Paintworks' early years. ’Within the Paintworks are popular venues such as Bocabar and Convoy Espresso, as well as various pop up eateries during the week, perfect for those working from home.’ The Paintworks also thrives from its proximity to several other popular areas of Bristol. Just a short walk up the hill are the popular independent shops, eateries of Totterdown, such as A Cappella, Southside, Bank and the award-winning Farrows Fish and Chips. The area is popular for the character of the houses, the feeling of community and the abundance of local green spaces. From the house, it is a short walk to Perrett’s Park, Arnos Court Park and the larger Victoria Park. Arnos Vale Victorian Cemetery and woodland are also home to Arnos Vale Cafe and a programme of events including Pop-up cinema, theatre, tours and classes. All parks nearby are very popular with local residents and combined with the tree lined streets and avenues in the area, give this location a particularly green feel. The area is ideal for commuters, being walking distance to Bristol City Centre, Temple Meads Train Station and the major areas of employment around Temple Quay. There is also a 2km cycle path to Temple Meads, making this a great option for people who regularly commute to London. Spark Evans Park is a two minute walk away accessed by a pedestrian bridge, including shops such as M&S.

The flat is situated in a prime position in the development overlooking the River Avon and further onwards to Sparke Evans Park. Situated in a corner position in the building, there is an abundance of light in the spacious open-plan living room/kitchen from the floor to ceiling windows. There are two double bedrooms and a separate bathroom. The flat also benefits from bike storage and underground parking space.
