Broad Street Bristol, BS1 2HF
Distance From City Center 0.88 miles
If you have ever dreamt of living in a space that feels like it belongs in a high-budget music video, welcome home. St Lawrence House, Bristol Student Accommodation, is the literal definition of urban cool, located right on Broad Street in the beating heart of Bristol’s city centre. This is not just a building; it is a twelve-story tower of independence that has been repurposed from a sleek office block into a student sanctuary. It is giving architectural glow-up, it is giving panoramic city views, and it is most definitely giving you the freedom to live your best life without a single flatmate in sight.
The location is basically a giant flex. You are situated exactly where the history of Old Bristol meets the edgy energy of the modern arts scene. The building itself is famous for the massive "Vandal" mural by Nick Walker on its exterior, a 20-meter tall piece of street art that lets everyone know you live in a place with actual personality. Inside, the vibe is just as electric. We have created a space where your academic hustle and your social life can coexist in perfect harmony.
Staying here means you are steps away from the legendary Nelson Street, which is a global hub for street art, and minutes from the floating harbour. The energy of the city is infectious, and being right in the thick of it means you never have to worry about missing out on a spontaneous night out or a pop-up market. The studios are designed for those who want the "grown-up" version of student living. No shared kitchens, no arguing over whose turn it is to buy milk, and zero chance of someone "accidentally" using your expensive shampoo.
Everything about this property is about maximizing your potential. From the high-spec finishes to the large windows that frame the Bristol skyline, your studio is your kingdom. It is a place where you can host a cozy dinner for two or lock yourself away for a serious weekend of exam prep. It is premium, it is private, and it is positioned perfectly for anyone who wants to experience Bristol at its absolute loudest and proudest. This is the spot for the independent icons who want the city as their backyard and a luxury studio as their retreat.
