Tasty new development in Shirehampton

Fish and chips was the dish of the day for visitors at the official launch of Persimmon Homes’ Orchard Leaze development in Shirehampton. Close on 100 would-be home buyers passed through the doors of Persimmon’s newest development, situated on Park Road, and the company is expecting the development to become one of its all time best selling sites.

Orchard Leaze incorporates just 24 two bedroom apartments some with an en-suite to the master bedroom and all of which benefit from a parking space.

Nicola Reed, sales director for Persimmon Homes Severn Valley, the developer behind the Orchard Leaze housing development, comments: “Given the number of people that we welcomed at the development, I’m sure Orchard Leaze is set to become just as popular as the nation’s favourite dish!

“Visitors to the development were not only able to enjoy a tasty treat, but they were also able to feast their eyes on our stunning two bedroom show apartment.”

And Nicola believes the properties will appeal to a broad mix of purchasers, she said: “Shirehampton is a lovely village with a friendly community feel with all the benefits of Bristol nearby. This is why we believe the apartments will attract interest from more mature buyers, who recognise the importance of good old fashioned community spirit, through to first time buyers, who want quick and easy access to the bright lights and excitement of Bristol city centre.”

Selected apartments at Orchard Leaze are available with FirstBuy – a Government funded scheme aimed at helping first time buyers onto the property ladder whereby purchasers only need to raise a five per cent deposit. This means that based on plot 6, purchasers would only need to secure a mortgage of £111,196 with a deposit of just £6,949.
