A smart new address
Introducing Factory No.1 – the first tobacco factory of W.D and H.O Wills and now the site of a new and exciting residential development located at the gateway to Bedminster.
Here a new chapter is starting, with urban homes being crafted from the former factory’s historic buildings alongside five new apartment buildings.
Specification
Factory No. 1 offers light-filled interiors which have been expertly designed and specified to complement the style and architecture of the buildings.
Kitchens feature different textures and contrasting tonal finishes to create an interesting and cohesive design. Using textured bronzed sleek handles, wood and matt finishes to kitchen doors, with on trend quartz marble worktops, these kitchens ooze style and quality.
All kitchens benefit from integrated SMEG appliances.
There are stunning contemporary gardens created to conceal the parking areas beneath. A series of raised terraces which sit between the original and new buildings consist of fine lawns, ornamental planting, hedges and several species of trees, all of which combine to create relaxing gardens set back from the busy high street; where residents can relax and revitalise.
Factory No.1 will be a secure gated development with CCTV covering each of the various pedestrian and vehicular entrances. There will be a concierge service during their specified working hours, which will vary according to stage of development.
Location
Located on East Street, Factory No.1 lies at the gateway to Bedminster, minutes from North Street and in the heart of city life. In recent years the area has created a name for itself as a hub for creativity and artists and the area has a distinctive bohemian character. 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. There is no shortage of places to eat, shop and hang out in Bedminster: a short walk away is North Street with its collection of independent shops and eateries.
East Street itself offers an assortment of shops perfect for all your grocery needs. Just across the road is the summer hotspot Victoria Park, whilst Bedminster Station is a short walk away, where funding is in place to reopen a direct line to Portishead.
Square Footage: 553 sq ft
Leasehold with approximately 173 years remaining.
Additional Info
From cigarettes to city living, Factory No.1 is a beacon of Bristol’s industrial past. Its rich history makes for a compelling and interesting place to live. Located on the site of what was once a medieval hospital and then a tannery, the building is better known for being the first factory of tobacco importers and manufacturers, W.D & H.O Wills. The brothers moved their business from its premises in Redcliff Street to its first factory in Consort House (Factory No. 1) in 1886, celebrating the move with a high tea in the Cigar Room for all 900 employees. Famously both non-smokers, William Day Wills and Henry Overton Wills II were pioneers of the cigarette card used in packaging and were the first UK company to mass-produce cigarettes.
Their successful business launched many popular cigarette brands including Woodbine and Capstan. Towards the end of the 19th century and in response to challenges from the American Tobacco Company, W.D & H.O Wills joined forces with 12 other family-run tobacco manufacturers including John Player & Sons and Lambert & Butler. The Imperial Tobacco Company (Great Britain and Ireland) Limited was formed in 1901 (although the companies continued to trade under their own names) and Regent House became the company headquarters. Tobacco continued to be manufactured at Factory No.1 until the 1970s.
