Housebuilder contributes £18million to Bristol at growing Filton location and launches stylish two bedroom apartments

- 01 Sep 20

Bovis Homes – part of Vistry Group – is now launching a collection of two-bedroom apartments at its new Charlton Heights development in the popular area of Charlton Hayes in Filton, Bristol and will have contributed in excess of £18million to the local community over the life of the project.

Funding for the local area, close to The Mall at Cribbs Causeway, includes a brand-new primary school and nursery, plus improvements to local infrastructure, public transport, cycle routes, as well as sports, leisure and community facilities. This is further enhanced by a recently installed footbridge, creating an easy link from the location’s new homes to the new supermarket and future airfield development.

Supriya Ray, managing director in the housebuilder’s Cotswold region, said: “Charlton Heights is set to be a fantastic community for the residents living there, with brilliant facilities no matter your interest or needs.

“Work here started in 2004, and it is very exciting to be nearing completion after 16 years. The investment from Bovis Homes into the local community has made a big difference to the development and lifestyle for the people living there, making it a great place to call home.

“Just minutes away is The Mall at Cribbs Causeway offering plenty of shopping and leisure opportunities with over 150 top name stores, cafes and restaurants. Bristol city centre is also within easy reach, made more accessible by the contribution that Vistry Group has made to local public transport. The nearby Bristol Parkway train station also offers connections to London.

“We are very excited to launch our new range of stylish two-bedroom apartments at Charlton Heights too. They truly embrace contemporary design and are perfect for first-time buyers, commuters, or those looking to downsize.”

Each of the new apartments at the development benefits from a generous private balcony too, with prices starting from £231,540.

House hunters can also benefit from the Government’s Help to Buy scheme. Using the Help to Buy – Equity Loan scheme, home buyers need just a five per cent cash deposit, with the Government providing an equity loan of up to 20 per cent of the value of the property being bought. Purchasers then need to secure up to a 75 per cent mortgage.
