From Country Retreat To The Bright Lights Of Bristol

Yorkshire couple John and Helen Middleton have swapped their country retreat near York for the bright lights of Bristol’s Harbourside in a drastic change of lifestyle.

The couple have purchased a beautiful two-bedroom apartment with a balcony next to the historic floating harbour, at the city’s premier waterside development.

John and Helen, both in their sixties, currently live between York and Bristol but intend to relocate to Bristol permanently upon retirement where their new home has everything they need right on the doorstep.

John said: “Setting up for retirement in this apartment has been easy. It’s completely fitted out with everything we need and the functionality was one of the things we fell in love with first.

“Although we are downsizing, the apartment is deceptively spacious; I always say it’s a bit like a tardis! We have all the space we need and it’s so much more manageable than our current home.

“We wanted a change of lifestyle as well and Harbourside seemed perfect. It’s vibrant and stylish and we have all the amenities we need within walking distance. The accessibility is perfect for us and the sense of community in the area is just what we were looking for.”

Vicky Dudbridge from selling agents King Sturge said: “Crest Nicholson’s Harbourside development is one of the most popular and sought after locations in Bristol at the moment. Its city centre location teamed with the beautiful views over Bristol’s historic floating harbour give it the edge over other developments in the city.

“Apartments at Harbourside are perfect for retirements all the way through to first-time buyers, they are well fitted out and finished to a high standard, making it easy to move straight in.”

Crest Nicholson is building a selection of one, two and three-bedroom apartments at Harbourside. The latest phase, called Ensign, comprises 27, one and two-bedroom apartments, including a selection of spacious, bay-fronted properties that boast stunning views directly across Bristol’s historic floating harbour.

Prices at Harbourside currently start at £189,995 for one-bedroom apartments and £270,000 for two-bedroom apartments.
