Location - This well-regarded development of apartments is situated in the heart of Clifton Village being a highly desirable location. The variety of shops, boutiques and restaurants in the village are quite literally on the doorstep as well as several bus routes providing easy city centre access. Indeed, Bristol’s City Centre itself is within only one and a half miles allowing access to the national motorway network via the M32 and rail links to London Paddington from Temple Meads mainline station. The vast expanse of Clifton’s Downs can be accessed across Christchurch Green (itself within ¼ of a mile) as can the historic landmark of Isambard Kingdom Brunel’s world famous suspension bridge spanning the Avon Gorge (in itself, a designated area of special scientific interest and natural beauty). The area is particularly well served for schooling in both state and private sectors with Clifton College being within half a mile of the subject property.
