Why rent when you could buy your own home near Bristol

Two bedroom homes in the new ‘village’ environment of Cheswick are providing first time buyers and professionals with more choice in Filton, Bristol.

With their convivial layouts and high specification interiors, Redrow’s two-bedroom, ‘Ellery’ style houses are a great option for would-be home owners, who may want to break out of the cycle of renting and invest in a home of their own at this sought-after location, just a few miles from the city centre.

They feature in the Tallsticks phase of Cheswick and a new view home is now open, complete with carpets, curtains and light fittings, so potential purchasers can visualise themselves living in their own Ellery and see how the layout could work for them.

Hayley Zaple, area sales manager for Redrow Homes (South West), said: “We believe there is demand for two-bedroom homes in this area from professionals, friends sharing and couples, who’ll all appreciate the traditional layout and garden.

“The Ellery houses benefit from a sociable open-plan living and dining room, separate kitchen, downstairs cloakroom and a convenient laundry area, which means noisy appliances are located away from the kitchen. Upstairs there are two good-sized bedrooms and a bathroom.

“They are ideal for people who may have been renting in the area but now feel the time is right to take that first step onto the property ladder.”

The properties could also prove popular with investors, looking to take advantage of the strong rental potential due to the development’s close proximity to the University of Western England and the Ministry of Defence’s Abbey Wood site.

All homes at Tallsticks are being built to Level 3 of the Code for Sustainable Homes, which means they include special features designed to keep water and energy usage to a minimum; this will hopefully translate into lower bills for home owners.

Tallsticks is one the individual ‘hamlets’ that make up the new urban village of Cheswick, north of Bristol. Others include The Bowery and Aurora Spring, which feature more traditional looking, mostly detached homes, whilst Tallsticks caters for those wanting something more contemporary in appearance but still built to the same high quality standards.

Cheswick is close to Parkway train station and within easy reach of the M4 and M5 motorways, so it’s a great location for those travelling into or out of town.

The Ellery homes are priced from £184,995. Four-bedroom houses are also available priced from £259,995 to £269,995.
