Rownham Mead | Harbourside
For Sale
A superbly situated, 3 double bedroom, 2 bath/shower room, end of terrace water-fronting townhouse with privileged dual aspect views overlooking Bristol's historic floating harbour and Pooles Wharf Marina towards the SS Great Britain, having rear garden, driveway parking and integral garage.
The property offers immensely flexible and well-proportioned accommodation arranged over three floors with gas central heating and double glazed windows throughout.
The property forms part of a row of water fronting townhouses with interesting views in a southerly direction across the water, and in an easterly direction across Pooles Wharf Marina towards the SS Great Britain.

Hotwells, along with neighbouring Clifton, was extremely fashionable during the 18th Century due to its spa and bottled water and is still full of important reminders of its maritime past, Rownham Mead having been built on the former site of Champions Quay. Today, the area combines access to the M5, M4 and M32 motorways with the convenience of being close to the main areas of employment, shopping and leisure that Bristol has to offer.
Regular buses to and from the city combine with the daily water bus services with landing stages in the city centre and Temple Meads mainline station.
