​

Let’s first talk about LOCATION…

    

    Across from the WestEdge Development

Walk to the Publix grocery store just across the street -  the Japanese Restaurant - a Spa - and The Harbor Club to start. The growth of WestEdge should increase the desirability of the Bristol location providing a possible increase in condo value.

    Next to Brittlebank Park

Enjoy Brittlebank Park, a 10-acre park on the Ashley River next door offering boat docking, a fishing pier with canopy, picnic tables, playground and off-leash dog park. Periodic activities can easily be attended  a few steps away -Astronomy in the Park on Wednesdays ( lowcountrystargazers@yahoo.com ) - the SEWE festival - concerts in the park are just a few. Brittlebank Park is a great jump-off for a run to the Battery or Hampton Park.

    Next to the Joe and the Citadel

Walk to the baseball games at the Riverdogs minor league baseball stadium or wander further to the Citadel for a military parade.  Offered from the Joe Riley Stadium are Friday night home game fireworks to enjoy from the Bristol pool balcony or your own condo in the summer. Join the Wine on the Water or the Ballpark Festival of Beers for added fun.

    Near Hampton Park

A short bike-ride away, the 60-acre Hampton Park offers one of the most peaceful destinations in the city for the vacation state of mind. Gardens of the park are interspersed with Spanish moss laden oaks making this is a great place to meditate.

    Marina in the Backyard

Walk the docks for exercise and entertainment. Ease of access from the back gate and dock directly from the Bristol building. Watch your own boat from your condo or poolside as it floats peacefully at the Harbor Marina. 

    15 Minutes to the Airport

Need we say more… ‘easy, peasy’

    Shuttle is at the Door for the Hospitals

 MUSC, Roper, and VA - practically spitting distance from The Bristol, these hospitals can be easily reached by the Shuttle that stops in front of the building or even walking.

​

Now about the abundance of AMENITIES…

 

    The Pool

A carefree luxury in the heat of a Charleston summer provides fabulous views of the Ashley River, Brittlebank Park, and surrounding nature. Spending time in the water helps your body relax and gets rid of stress; and also may help you sleep better than you ever have before.

    The Bristol Room

This community meeting place is not only a great place to hang out, read a book, play cards, but is also an amenity that can be reserved for private parties or family gatherings with minimal effort. Tastefully decorated and often totally available, one can meet friend here instead of their condo if they don’t feel like cleaning that day.

    The Library

Share books and visit the public library less often. Review the latest financial details of the building. This is also a convenient venue for a private meeting.

    The Caterer’s Kitchen 

Tables and cloths available for set-up for parties or family affairs in The Bristol Room. In a pinch during a renovation, the kitchen is at your disposal for cooking; and keep your drinks cool here while at the pool.

    The Car Wash

A place in the garage to quickly rinse your car if needed; save money and time when in a hurry.

    The Pet Run

Take your small furry friend quickly out to do the business.  Bags provided.

    The Sauna

    The Fitness Room

Think of this as a free gym membership - no need for a monthly payment elsewhere or having to get in the car to go to exercise. Lots of privacy to workout during certain hours or a great place to meet your neighbors before and after work hours. Participate in the occasional classes available to join at a very reasonable fee - yoga or stretching, or bring your own private trainer! Great news

    Storage

Great news is that there is additional storage with every condo located on the second floor of the garage. In addition, there are 50 climate controlled storage unit throughout the building for lease. Free kayak or canoe storage on Level One of the garage and also a place to lease parking for your golf cart with a charging station.

    The Parking

In this city where parking is at a premium, each condo has 2 deeded spaces that are just yours and can never be removed. Parking spaces definitely provide value for your condo in the downtown area. Additional 30 spaces for lease if needed behind the 2nd gate or made available if you have a visitor staying with you for an extended period of time.  Lots of guest parking between gates for your friends or workmen. The garage is well-lit and safe with parking close to your elevator.

    The Security

Feel safe with an abundance of cameras recording the commons space activity, and key pads and fobs for a secure entry through gates/elevators/doors. You will feel more secure and safe knowing your neighbors in this size building.

    The Management

Management is available Monday through Friday during office hours, but also available for emergencies 24/7. Need help receiving packages or letting repairmen into your condo?… no problem.  Need to reserve the Bristol Room or the elevators for moving or check on your HOA payments? Poston Company does a fine job managing the building.
