First time buyers snap up cycle deal in Bristol

The development is within cycling distance of the city centre and sales director Louise Ware said the homes have been hugely popular with first time buyers taking advantage of being right on the cycle path into the city.
“First time buyers in particular put green issues high on their agenda and it is the same at Barratt,’’ she said. “With this in mind we thought it would be ideal to offer these buyers a bike with their purchase and with spring on the way it has been proving a real attraction.’’
Residents can cycle into the city – or they might want to tackle the 13-mile Bristol to Bath cycle route. If they prefer to stay closer to home, they can enjoy village life and walks or cycle rides in the countryside.
Once complete, The Meadows will offer 222 homes – a mixture of one and two-bedroom apartments and two, three and four-bedroom houses, with prices ranging from £139,000.
And as an added bonus for first time buyers taking advantage of Dream Start, a one bedroom property costs from just £105,000.
Dream Start allows first-time buyers to own a brand new home for just 75 per cent of the asking price, with no deposit necessary.
