Living on Charlotte Street

Charlotte Street is a row of beautiful mid-Georgian Grade II listed town houses constructed by the respected Georgian architect William Paty, located in between Brandon Hill and Park Street and bordering Clifton and Bristol City Centre. The area offers an array of shops and amenities right on its doorstep both on Park Street and on The Triangle. Many of Bristol’s best restaurants, bars, museums and cafés are just minutes by foot, while Bristol iconic Harbourside is just a quick stroll down the hill. Further down the river is the landmark Wapping Wharf area which has gained an excellent reputation for its food and drink scene. Clifton, Cotham and Stokes Croft are also within reach from this central base. The historic Victorian Park of Brandon Hill is a short distance on foot and offers superb views over the city especially from the top of Brandon Tower and there are plenty of tame squirrels to watch in this pretty park. A major benefit of this location is the proximity to many major employers, including several major law firms, banks, charities and energy companies in the centre of Bristol.
