Factory No. 1 is an award-winning residential development of conversion and new build homes located at the gateway to Bedminster.
Formerly the first tobacco factory of W.D and H.O Wills, a new chapter has started for the historic site, with 1 & 2-bedroom apartments and 3-bedroom penthouses for sale in Bristol. Urban homes are being crafted from the former factory’s buildings, alongside five new build apartment buildings, all set around beautiful, landscaped courtyard gardens.
Culture
In recent years, Bedminster has created a name for itself as a hub of creativity for artists, developing its own distinctive character. It is hard to walk far without spying the conspicuous works of art by talented local street artists, including the world-famous Banksy. The Upfest Gallery on North Street is Bristol’s longest running urban art gallery and most years it hosts UPFEST, Europe’s largest street art festival.
Connectivity
For destinations that can’t be reached on foot or by bike, there is an excellent network of bus routes across the city. Regular train services run to both London and Exeter from nearby Bristol Temple Meads Station. Bedminster Station offers services to Cardiff, Exeter and Taunton, while a local service between Bristol Parkway and Weston-Super-Mare calls at Bedminster every hour during the week.
Cafes & Bars
There is no shortage of places to eat, shop and hang out in Bedminster. A thriving nightlife scene is supported by numerous restaurants, bars and cafés, from international groups to independent start-ups. The local restaurants serve a wide range of cuisine to indulge in.
Convenience
A short walk away is North Street with its collection of independent shops and eateries. East Street itself offers an assortment of amenities perfect for all your grocery needs. Close by is the summer hotspot of Victoria Park, whilst Bedminster Station is just around the corner.
