2 bed flat for sale

East Street, Bedminster BS3

"There is such a great sense of community within the complex, from the freecycle group to Yuki the concierge, who knows everyone by name. We love being such a short walk from the centre of town, as well as being so close to all the great eateries on North street. We’ll miss how close the swimming pool is and doing sunset laps of the harbour. The flat speaks for itself: It’s warm, light and is delightful to come back to after work. We’ve loved living here and hope the next owner does too!"

The History
Consort House is a Grade II listed building, transformed into a contemporary residential development. Located on the site of what was once a medieval hospital and then a tannery, the building is better known for being the first factory of tobacco importers and manufacturers, W.D & H.O Wills. The brothers moved their business from its premises in Redcliff Street to its first factory in Consort House in 1786.

These luxury apartments were built by City and Country, a popular developer known for combining high-quality homes with buildings that offer unique historic character.

The home
The apartment is accessed via the entrance on East Street, where you can find the communal lobby to reach the lift or staircase. The apartment is set back on the opposite side of the building from the busy streets below.

Upon entering the apartment, you are welcomed by a hallway with a spacious storage cupboard/utility cupboard for white goods and access to each room. To the right is a large open-plan living room and a modern kitchen with integrated appliances, featuring a delightful kitchen island that separates the living spaces.

Next door is a good-sized double bedroom with a large window, letting in vast amounts of natural light. The master bedroom is not only bright and tastefully decorated but also includes an en-suite bathroom with contrasting dark porcelain tiles and gold-tone fixtures. The main bathroom is situated next door and includes a three-piece suite.

The property also comes with a friendly and welcoming on-site concierge and a secure, allocated parking space – a rarity for the busy East Street.

Outdoor space
Each apartment enjoys the use of gated facilities, including communal gardens and bike stores. This is also where you’ll find access to the allocated parking space.
