2 bed flat for sale

Royal York Crescent, Clifton, Bristol BS8

Vendor Comment: "We first moved from London into Royal York Crescent about 25 years ago. I still have vivid memories of that amazing view across to the Mendips, seeing fireworks exploding all over Bristol at midnight on New Year’s Eve and watching balloons drift silently by the windows at dawn in August. Situated on what is reputed to be the longest crescent in Europe, the flat is right in the heart of Clifton Village with its many charming restaurants, pubs and shops. But it is also a place of tranquillity with large green spaces nearby: It's very close to the Gorge and Clifton Downs, it’s easy to walk over the Suspension Bridge and visit Leigh Woods and Ashton Court, and the flats have their own private gardens just below the raised pavement on the Crescent. It is also close the centre of Bristol: I used to walk to work over Brandon Hill. The neighbours are mostly owner occupiers who take an active part in the management of the building.
