Ensign Raises Standard Following Harbourside Success
11 March 2009
Work on the latest residential building at Crest Nicholson's Harbourside development has picked up pace as demand for properties remains high.
Phase 5 of The Crescent is called 'Ensign' and comprises a selection of 27, one and two-bedroom apartments, including the prime, bay-fronted properties that boast stunning views directly across Bristol's historic floating harbour.
Work has now started to fit out the 27 apartments with the latest kitchen and bathroom fixtures and fittings.
Vicky Dudbridge from selling agent King Sturge said: “Sales at the development are staying robust. This means building work can continue which is essential in order to keep up with demand for apartments at Harbourside.
“With reports on the poor state of the property sector hitting the media almost daily this is great news. The fact that we're pushing on with the build clearly demonstrates that the properties at The Crescent are not only priced competitively but ticks a lot of boxes for the discerning house-hunter.
“We are in an enviable location and people realise that this is a fantastic opportunity to purchase a new property right on the water in the heart of the city. With all the amenities on their doorstep, purchasers cannot find what we have to offer anywhere else in Bristol and are continuing to buy here despite the economic downturn.”
Perfect Location
Located right in the heart of Bristol those living at Harbourside not only enjoy the benefits of a stunning new waterside development but all the trappings city centre living brings. The centre is only a few minutes walk away and there are numerous restaurants and bars close by including The Living Room, Chinese restaurant Zen and Pizza Express.
On top of all the attractions Bristol brings, those with a little more energy can make use of Fitness First health club, while numerous other leisure pursuits are right on the doorstep such as the Gala Casino.
