A sunny opening for Barratt in Bristol

Residents at Barratt’s Bristol development The Zone didn’t need to head to Chelsea Flower Show for gardening delights – they have their own roof garden which has been officially opened by the developer.

A barbecue with live music marked the opening of the communal gardening area, an integral part of The Zone, Barratt’s award winning site in the city centre.

The Zone’s 54 square metre roof terrace is one of the highest in the city with panoramic views of Bristol and beyond.

Louise Ware, Barratt sales director said: “The launch was a perfect evening and we were thrilled to see so many of the residents come up to celebrate. The live music and BBQ accompanied by the sun setting in the distance staged a perfect time for residents of The Zone to meet fellow neighbours.

“The terrace is an escape from the hustle and bustle life of Bristol, allowing residents to relax in a tranquil setting right on their door step, said Louise.

“The roof terrace has a combination of raised timber beds, decking and paved areas, and shrubs and climbers for all residents of The Zone to enjoy,” explained Louise.

“Residents will also not have to worry about the upkeep of the terrace as it will be maintained throughout the year by a management company.

“The roof terrace portrays the quality in which Barratt stands for, and we hope that the terrace and the fully equipped gym will work as our unique selling points for potential buyers,” concluded Louise.

The Zone is situated in the Temple Quarter area of Bristol and is fast becoming the most desirable address in the city, and it is hardly surprising that buyers are flocking to this development, as it is the ideal location for city dwellers.

Barratt has sold more than 60 per cent of apartments at The Zone, including all of their studio apartments, and still can offer a selection of one, two and three-bedroom apartments priced from £144,995.
