Taylor Wimpey's Altus Development

Bristol house hunters who are erring on the side of caution should head to Taylor Wimpey’s Altus development in Portishead, where its waterside properties provide a solid long-term investment opportunity.

In one of Europe’s most exciting waterside regenerations and with enviable vistas, Altus provides luxury marina living without the luxury price tag. Additionally, homes with waterside views add a 5-10% resale premium to the value of a home.

Situated at the heart of the new marina, Altus consists of just 48 one, two, three and four bedroom apartments, duplex apartments and houses, starting from just £120,000 with Taylor Wimpey’s Easystart* scheme, where buyers can own 100% of the property for 85% of the price.

Altus provides perfect accommodation for those looking to be close to the sea, whilst retaining proximity to coastal towns and the city of Bristol, which is conveniently just 10 miles away. Home owners here can make the most of what the Marina has to offer, especially in the summer months, whether it is walking along the marina or taking a boat out to sail.

Richard Goad, regional sales and marketing director for Taylor Wimpey, said: “Altus is a fantastic development that provides stunning homes with a marina lifestyle to match. The site has beautiful, calming vistas of the coast peppered by local fishing boats, yachts and cruisers, while the bustling traditional Victorian high street is just a stones throw away.

“The Marina is a new and exciting development which when complete, will provide over 400 floating berths and100 dry berths for a range of sailing and leisure craft – perfect for any boating enthusiast.

“Altus offers the best of both worlds – a relaxing retreat, perfect after a hard day at work as well as the convenience of Bristol city centre for weekend shopping and nightlife. With the fabulous location, lovely homes, fantastic prices and holding value these properties are a sound buy. ”

Altus is situated in Portishead Marina just minutes away from a traditional Victorian high street, hosting a range of shops to suit all tastes, while the city of Bristol is just ten miles away. Properties at the development are available to purchase from Taylor Wimpey’s ‘Portus’ sales information centre, in Stonechat Green, Portishead, BS20 7NP.
