usy families without the time, enthusiasm or skills to take on a doer-upper will be thrilled when presented with this house, where all the hard work has already been completed.

To see for yourself, make an appointment with the agent (details above) to visit during an open house event tomorrow.

The four-bedroom property has two bathrooms, one on each floor, a garage with permission to convert to extra accommodation, parking for three cars and an enclosed rear garden.

It’s all been finished throughout in a modern, tasteful style, and practicality has been taken care of too, with laminate, wood or tiled floors across the ground floor, and a smashing, newly-fitted kitchen/diner.

Two reception rooms have been combined to create a large sitting and eating area, complete with a plasma fire and a solid oak floor. Through a wide opening is the kitchen/diner (perhaps for more informal meals) where pale units sit beneath wood work surfaces, including a breakfast bar.

In the dining area is a set of patio doors, while in the next door utility room are more units, plus space for a washing machine, dishwasher, tumble dryer and a tall fridge/freezer.

Throughout is a tiled floor and off the kitchen is a door to the side of the house, with access into the garage.

The bathroom on this level, like the one above, has a white suite comprising a bath with shower off a mixer tap. Three of the four bedrooms upstairs have carpets, two have built-in storage space, while the fourth bedroom (with a laminate floor) also has TV and telephone points.

Under-floor heating adds a touch of luxury in the smart bathroom, where you’ll find a roll-top bath, a separate shower cubicle, a basin set into a vanity unit, a heated towel rail and a tiled floor.

Enclosed by fencing, the back garden is mainly lawn, with a patio, play area, shed and a stone paved area with hardwood sleeper seat.

Finally, there’s an open storage area suitable for bikes.

A LOFT conversion has added extra sleeping space here, complete with en suite, which means there are three bath/shower rooms to share among the five bedrooms. No queues here then!

As you’d expect, the Victorian house typically has large rooms with high ceilings, while outdoor space includes that all-important off-street parking, an enclosed garden and a double detached garage.

Among the interesting features are stained glass panels, a spindle banister dogleg staircase and a large ornate mirror on the landing. There are cornices and picture rails, too, plus glass panel doors on the ground floor.

The top floor is linked to the kitchen via an intercom buzzer so might be suitable for a dependent relative. It

WITHIN walking distance of Redland Station in one direction and not too far from the shops of Whiteladies Road in the other, this converted flat has lots of storage space and gas central heating.

The property, which is on the market with no onward chain, is “open” to view between 10.30am and 11.30am on Saturday (November 23). Just call the agent to book an appointment.

At the front of the flat is the master bedroom, with a bay sash window, a grey marble period fireplace, decorative cornice and picture rail, a built-in wardrobe plus phone, broad-

A smaller room up here is currently set up as an office. Skylights, pale walls and beige carpets all help to make this floor a bright space.

Moving down to the ground floor, there are two main reception rooms, both with bay windows and one with

a coal-effect gas fire. The breakfast room, with a solid oak floor, is open to the kitchen, where pale units are complemented by dark work tops and dark, glossy floor tiles.

Appliances include a double electric oven, gas hob, fridge and dishwasher, while in the utility room/toilet is space for a fridge, freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer.

The middle floor houses the master bedroom, with its mirrored wardrobes and en suite shower, two other bedrooms (one with fitted wardrobes) and the main bath/ shower room.

At the front of the house, enclosed by a low wall, is a block-paving parking area for four cars, and through double electric gates at the side is a patio garden and more parking space for two cars.

Raynes Road, Ashton ● £250,000 ● Four-bed mid-terrace ● Haart, 0117 966 2548 CLOSE to the vibrant shopping area of North Street and the open space of Greville Smyth Park, this house also offers plenty of space.

The entrance hall, which is 22ft, or 2.6m, long could double as a dining area, or perhaps an office, while both reception rooms have gas fires and the one at the rear has patio doors.

In the kitchen, green painted units contrast with dark work surfaces and integrated appliances include an electric oven with ceramic hob. There’s also plumbing for a dishwasher, while in the utility room is space for a washing machine, fridge/freezer and tumble dryer.

Upstairs, the master bedroom has an en suite shower and is linked to a loft room.

Two more of the bedrooms have built-in wardrobes while the full-tiled bathroom includes a Jacuzzi bath with shower over.

Paved off-street parking for two cars is at the front of the house and at the back is a paved garden, with mature shrubs and access to the detached garage which is also reached via a rear lane.

Church Road, Easter Compton ● Three-bedroom ● Terraced cottage ● £370,000 ● House Hut, 0117 975 8636 THIS unique period home, which is thought to be at least 350 years old, has plenty of interesting features.

This is characterised by tiled worktops and wood cupboards painted blue. Appliances include an electric oven and hob, dishwasher and a Rangemaster gas cooker.

The south east-facing rear garden is enclosed with a high wall

and fencing and is around 70ft long.

It is split over three levels, and is mainly paved, with an area of lawn, plenty of mature shrubs, fruit trees and a barbecue Other benefits include gas central heating and PVCu double glazing.

HE picture of the housing market is looking more and more rosy, as another house builder releases encouraging figures. In its latest report, Persimmon Homes reports visitors to its developments have increased by 20 per cent ahead of last year, while weekly private sales are up 45 per cent ahead of last year since July 1, 2013.

Managing director of Persimmon Homes Severn Valley, Carl Haley, says improvements are continuing.

“The introduction of the Gover nmentsponsored Help to Buy equity loan scheme in April 2013, which is only available to buyers of new homes, has proved particularly attractive, with more than 3,000 new homes sold

by Persimmon under this scheme,” said Carl.

“In our experience locally, it’s not just first-time buyers who are taking advantage of the scheme, but also second-time buyers looking to either move up the property ladder or simply cut the cost of their outgoings.

“The Government has also recently launched the second part of the Help to Buy scheme. However this is not an equity loan, but a Government guaranteed mortgage. In our experience of the local market, we don’t believe this will have such an impact, due to the limited number of lenders involved and the higher interest rates.”

Speaking about new sites in the region, Carl said: “Here in the South West we are working hard to deliver more new homes to the people who desperately need them.

So far this year we have opened seven new sites – including housing orientated for families at Wren Gardens, Bridgwater, marina apartments at our Galatea and Aurora blocks at Portishead, two new exciting outlets at Haywood Village, Weston-super-Mare, and our first development for a number of years in Yate – Westerleigh Park.

“We also launched our refurbishment of Allen House in Bristol and expect to open a further six at the turn of the year, The Oaks, Matson Lane, Gloucester; Lyde Green, Emersons Green; Albright Court, Portishead; Mill Lane, Congresbury, and Mulberry Park, Burnham-on-Sea. “We continue to work closely with local authorities in our region to move developments forward and we’re particularly looking forward to the results of the Government’s current consultation on the localised housing standards associated with obtaining planning consents. A simplification of the red tape relating to these requirements will undoubtedly enable us to deliver an increase in new homes more quickly.”

FEEL PART OF IT THIS CHRISTMAS

EPB-E01-S3

W

INTER and Christmas can be a difficult time of year for older people, when it gets more difficult to get around and people can feel lonely if they don’t feel part of all the festivities.

But that isn’t the case for residents at The Hawthorns in Clevedon, which is a unique retirement environment for people who would like to remain independent, but enjoy all the benefits of living in a hotel.

The Hawthorns overlooks the seafront in Clevedon and offers residents a lifestyle where they rent their private apartments for an all-inclusive monthly fee.

This includes all meals in the dining room, TV rooms, a library, all bed linen laundry, a free coach, insurance and maintenance, 24/7 security with managers living on site, coffee lounges, activity rooms, a hair and beauty salon, extensive landscaped gardens and all utility bills, including council tax.

During the winter months, living at The Hawthorns takes away the worry of snowfall and high heating bills as everything is taken care of in one monthly charge, with no hidden ex-

tras. There is no snow or ice clearance to worry about, as it is all included, too.

There is also a host of Christmas entertainment laid on, including a pantomime, a Christmas bazaar and a family event when residents can invite their family along to a Christmas meal and children will get to meet Santa.

Goldie Tripney, Facility Manager at The Hawthorns, explains: “Our residents all live independently and many of them take up new hobbies and activities later in life. We have one resident who even learnt to swim for the first time ever in her seventies!

“Our activities include sessions of circuit training, zumba, pilates, tai

chi, golf putting, snooker and ‘sitter-size’. Our coach takes people out on shopping trips and excursions on a daily basis so there is never any need to feel bored or isolated.

“Christmas at The Hawthorns is a very special time as we lay on plenty of Christmas events that residents can take part in if they wish to.”

The Hawthorns is holding a Christ-

mas-themed open day on Friday, December 6. Visitors are welcome to pop along with for a hot drink and a mince pie between 10.30am and 12.30pm, and again from 2.30pm to 4.30pm.

For more information, visit The Hawthorns at 18-19 Elton Road Clevedon, BS21 7EH, call 01275 790060, or go to www.hawthornsretirement.co.uk.

Retirement dreaming?

Wake up to the benefits of renting at The Hawthorns FINDING a practical solution which matches the quality of your retirement living dream may be easier said than done – and renting may not automatically spring to the top of your list of possible solutions.

However, increasing numbers of UK retirees are discovering what their counterparts in America and Australia found out a few years back – that renting your retirement home offers many advantages over continued property ownership.

Even more are discovering how you can continue to benefit from both!

The Hawthorns Retirement has brought its highly successful American formula for retirement living to the UK at Eastbourne, Clevedon and Braintree. These developments, in a nutshell, offer you continued independent living, none of the worries of home ownership and total flexibility to change your lifestyle at a month’s notice should circumstances dictate. And all this is achieved by renting your retirement home at The Hawthorns.

Your monthly rental includes all your many monthly expenses including all your meals and snacks, utility bills, housekeeping, maintenance – even a free mini-bus to take you to the shops and back. If you sit down and calculate what you are spending on all those items living in your own home, the rental fees appears very reasonable indeed.

As well as the financial argument, life at The Hawthorns offers the added benefits of security, companionship and the flexibility of handing in just one month’s notice of your decision to leave.

Whilst many residents fund this idyllic retirement lifestyle from the proceeds of the sale of their home, many others opt to rent out their own property and fund their new-found lifestyle from the rental income, maintaining their property as part of their estate.

Either way, they enjoy to the full the many benefits of renting, namely: •The freedom to live in new areas or change accommodation as desired •The ability to easily move closer to friends or family members •A lifestyle free from property and ground maintenance and the stress of everyday bills •Enjoying the benefits of quality accommodation more suited to their needs with live-in managers.

So whilst home ownership may be central to our traditional aspirations, it’s not necessarily central to the great retirement dream. Maybe you should wake up to the benefits of renting!

Couple make a fresh start in new build

W

HEN Mark Maidment and his fiancée Kate Fox purchased their first home at Crest Nicholson’s Westerleigh Mews development in Yate, they knew exactly what they were investing in.

As a Crest Nicholson employee, choosing the development was an easy decision for Mark. He said: “I’m originally from Yate so I know the area really well, and we were keen to move back there after living in Patchway for a while.

“It’s a lovely place to live, as you are able to enjoy the space of living out of the city, but are close enough to Bristol or Bath to commute very easily. Working for Crest Nicholson, I knew that the houses at Westerleigh Mews were great, and we couldn’t wait to take a look.”

Having lived in an older property for a number of years, Mark and Kate were keen to start afresh in a new build. Mark continued: “Despite working for Crest Nicholson, we had never lived in a new build property before. My fiancée Kate was particularly

We have a home thanks to ‘Help to Buy’

excited about the chance to choose our kitchen and bathroom fixtures and fittings, and I loved the fact that everything would be brand new and really high quality.

“We decided to go with the three-bedroom Hampshire house in the end, as we really loved its layout, especially the fact that the kitchen and dining area was separate from the living room. The house is also away from busy roads, which is perfect for Mitzy our cat.”

Prices at Westerleigh Mews start from £210,995 for the three-bedroom Hereford

house, £241,995 for the four-bedroom Hallingbury house, and £309,995 for the four-bedroom Monkfield house.

A number of purchasing deals are available at Westerleigh Mews, including the new Government-backed Help to Buy scheme.

For more information, visit the on-site sales suite (open Thursday to Monday, 10am to 5pm), call 0845 8943 346, email westerleighmews@ crestnicholson.com, or log on to www.crestnicholson.com/ westerleighmews.

T

he Parker family are celebrating the purchase of their new home in Westbury, thanks to the government-backed Help to Buy scheme.

In the five years that Richard and Zowie Parker have been married, they have lived in six houses. Now with two young children, Poppy-Mai aged four and Dylan aged one, they were looking forward to settling closer to Richard’s work.

“As I am now a full-time mother, without the Help To Buy scheme we would not have been able to secure a mortgage for the house we wanted,” said

Zowie.

Richard added: “I am in the Royal Electrical Mechanical Engineers in the Army and work initially brought us to the area, but the fact that I could commute even if posted to Bristol or Tidworth in the future made the Lakeside View development the perfect location.”

The Help To Buy scheme provides new-build home buyers with a 20 per cent equity loan from the Government, with no interest payable for the first five years. It allows first-time buyers and those moving up the property ladder to purchase a home up to a value of £600,000, with a min-

imum deposit of just five per cent.

Featuring three and four-bedroom homes built by David Wilson, Lakeside View was just what the Parkers were looking for. “We fell in love with the three-bedroom Oakfield home at Lakeside View,” said Zowie. “The Westbury area is ideal as it’s less than an hour from major towns and the rural feel to the development makes it a great location for walking our two dogs.”

For further information, call the sales office, open daily 10.30am to 5.30pm, on 08445 710385, or visit www.dwh.co. uk.
