NEW RELEASE: 22 additional Shared Ownership homes are now available to reserve! Dont miss out on the LAST selection of 1, 2 and 3-bedroom apartments/ duplexes.

All new homes are now ready to move in!

There are 120 new-build apartments available through Shared Ownership, allowing you to buy part of your home the part you can afford and pay rent on the rest. Featuring high-quality one, and three-bedroom new shared ownership apartments, located by Bristols famous harbourside. McArthurs Yard offers a range of stylish properties for sale in Bristol across three modern buildings.

With Shared Ownership, you share the cost of buying your home you pay for the share you own, and then pay a subsidised rent to your landlord, Guinness Homes (a leading housing association). Residents can enjoy the vibrant city life while appreciating the tranquillity of the waterfront. A new home with shared ownership here, secured with a lease, is an exceptional choice, and Guinness Homes will partner with you to share this exciting step.

Why choose this Bristol property?

McArthurs Yard is ideally situated for exploring the harbourside and is one of the best locations in Bristol for young professionals looking to buy. You may be able to find specific housing options here that perfectly suit your needs, even if youve previously considered areas like Bishopston and found them out of reach. You can catch the Metrobus, visit local coffee shops, take a peaceful ferry ride across the harbour, or simply step out your door to begin your adventure.

The harbourside provides numerous activities and convenient access to events and festivals in Bristol, complemented by excellent transport links, including proximity to Temple Meads train station. Over time, as the property value increases, youll typically have the option to buy more shares, meaning youll own more and pay less rent.

This project is brought to life by Guinness Homes, an award-winning developer and housing provider. It represents one of the last undeveloped spots on the harbourside. Many homes available offer superb views and are just a short walk from the citys amenities.

This development is car-free, meaning residents cannot apply for parking permits or use street parking nearby unless they purchase a home with a designated parking space. This policy complies with Local Authority planning conditions and cannot be changed by Guinness. Speak to a member of the sales team for more information.
