Welcome to the 2010 summer issue of Property South West - the definitive guide for building and home improvement. With summer in full swing and the recession officially over (or so we’re told), things are on the up again with a marked growth in buying and new development in particular.

In a recent report from the Nationwide, figures reveal that the southwest of England has enjoyed the largest increase in property prices compared to other areas in the UK. Data from the building society showed that across the country the average residential property has gone up in value by 9.5 percent in the last 12 months and by 1.9 per cent in the second quarter. The strong performance of the south-west in the Nationwide figures is in strong contrast with the Land Registry statistics for May which reveal a 0.2 per cent drop in house prices. With a plethora of dynamic new projects having been given the green light, there’s a real buzz in the air and we predict that this is just the start of better days to come.

As always at Property Southwest our pledge is to keep you up to date with the very latest news – be it good or not so good. There has never been a better time for optimism and it’s my sincere wish that we’ve once again managed to remain as up to the minute as ever, as well as being the practical and informative guide you know and love us for. If you’re moving house or merely exploring the different housing opportunities, go forward with confidence and step into the sun – but most of all happy, happy hunting!

Best RegardsNikki Cook

VIBE. ESSENCE. ZENITH...They’re three fantastic new apartment developments in Bristol by Linden Homes, perfect for first-time buyers, young professionals and the young at heart who want to enjoy stylish living and all the attractions of the city. And thanks to a great new ‘move-in package’ - including TV, sofa, bed, kitchen appliances, carpets, blinds, crockery and even cutlery – it’s easier than ever to feel right at home with city life, from the moment you move in.

No worries about the expense of buying everything new to set up your home. No hassles with trying to make your old furniture fit. And good riddance to that tired old sofa that’s seen better days! Just imagine - the place of your dreams in a des-res location, with great transport links and excellent local amenities, at a good value price and no furniture shopping. Only hurry - due to demand, there are only a few 2 bedroom apartments at Vibe

Complete with great interior design and specification – not to mention your ‘move-in package’ - the one remaining two bedroom apartment is priced at just £155,995.

Experience the essence of contemporary city living amidst historic architecture on Cheltenham Road, Montpelier. Essence 2 bedroom apartments offer great value and state of the art living in Bristol’s up and coming bohemian quarter. Prices start at £169,995, not forgetting your essential ‘move-in package’.

The zenith of affordable stylish living is to be found in St George, off Crews Hole Road, just two miles from the city centre. Zenith apartments offer style, individuality and design appeal with no compromise to space. Prices start at £119,995 for a roomy 1 bedroom apartment and on top of your money saving ‘move in package’, Linden Homes can make your brand new apartment more attainable than you’d imagine with various options for first-time buyers including the Government’s HomeBuy Direct scheme*.

THE DREAM OF owning a stunning new home set within beautiful landscaped areas and more than 50 acres of open parkland can become a reality for buyers at Hortham Village.

Barratt offers an impressive array of houses at its sought after development in the Gloucestershire countryside. And, now, buyers have the opportunity to opt for an outstanding new two bedroom apartment.

“Hortham Village is extremely popular because of its enviable position within an idyllic rural area of the county,” said sales director, Andrea Pilgrim.

“Now, buyers can get the best of both worlds – modern apartment living within the tradition and beauty of the countryside. We are

expecting these new homes to be snapped up quickly. So buyers will need to be quick to be secure their position as part of this wonderful rural community.”

From £154,995, the two bedroom Falkirk apartment boasts an open plan living and dining area – giving a feeling of light and space.

The kitchen features fully fitted, contemporary units – and the main bathroom is also attractively colour-coordinated.

“The Falkirk features two well-proportioned bedrooms – perfect

for entertaining guests visiting this beautiful part of the countryside,” said Andrea Pilgrim. “The release of these new apartments is very exciting. Hortham Village predominantly features new houses – so the Falkirk apartment is a rare but welcome addition to this wonderful development.”

Despite the rural feel of Hortham Village, the homes are still within striking distance of Bristol – close to schools, shops and many other amenities. Cribbs Causeway is nearby – and there are also easy links to the motorway.

For further details visit the Hortham Village sales office, open daily from 11am to 6pm.Call 01454 614483, or log ontowww.barratthomes.co.uk.

HAVING LIVED IN the heart of the Oxfordshire countryside for the past 18 years, journalist Monica Grenfell who works as the Health Editor of Woman’s Own magazine thought it was time for a change.

It was during the Easter holidays that Monica was visiting Bristol and came across Crest Nicholson’s

Harbourside development while taking a walk along the waterside.

Not really knowing what to expect she was soon taken by the hustle and bustle of life on the water and the general buzz of people going about their day-to-day business.

It was during her walk that Monica popped in to Crest’s marketing suite to see what properties were available for sale and once she saw in more detail the style and location of the apartments on offer she instantly realised that this was what she wanted.

Monica said: “Everything about the development is just so ideal for what I want. The location is perfect, the layout of my new apartment is just what I need and the sales team were brilliant. Overall my experience of Crest has been outstanding and I can’t praise the team enough.”Located right in the heart of Bristol

it’s easy to see why Monica is so excited and why those living at Harbourside not only enjoy the benefits of a stunning new waterside development but all that comes with living in the city centre.

The latest phase is called Beacon House and comprises 47, one, two and three-bedroom apartments. Spread over seven floors, the variety of different styles and property sizes has already attracted a lot of interest from property hunters looking to live next to the city’s historic floating harbour.

Prices currently start from £205,000.

For further information please call 0117 908 8888or visit www.harbourside.co.uk Alternatively please visit the marketing suite on Cathedral Walk which is open daily from10am to 5pm.

SINCE LAUNCHING IN spring, The Works, Linden Homes’ development at Great Western Dockyard has received a huge amount of interest from house hunters in Bristol. This has led to an impressive number of sales, which is only set to move to greater heights – the third floor in fact! That’s because from this Saturday (17th July) Linden Homes will be launching its brand new marketing office, situated on the third floor. Previously located on the ground level, the new suite will allow interested parties to appreciate the elevated views from the apartments, which overlook Bristol Harbour.

As well as gaining invaluable advice from the sales team, visitors to the new suite will also have a chance to see the 2 bedroom show apartment or the 1 bedroom view home.

The new show apartment features stunning views across the river. The spacious hallway leads to an open plan

living/dining/kitchen area, where you will be wowed by the light and space available, as well as the bathroom and both bedrooms, with the master benefiting from en suite facilities.

The Works, the first phase of the prestigious scheme, is located next to the ss Great Britain (ssGB) and is a major regeneration project that marks a new chapter in the story of Bristol’s floating dockyard.

It features a collection of 1 and 2 bedroom apartments that are quickly becoming the most sought after address in the city. Built in conjunction with the ssGB Trust and incorporating the Trust’s new visitor centre, the development is built on the footprint of Brunel’s original steam works and will echo the buildings that were lost in the Second World War.

But whilst the external elevations may hark back to a golden age in Bristol’s maritime history, inside

it is a very different story. The individually designed apartments have been arranged to provide the flexible space and masses of light that are so important to contemporary living. Specification is to the high standard you would expect in such a prestigious development and there is a choice of views from large windows.

Prices currently start at around £150,000 for a 1 bedroom apartment. It is clear that this will be a unique opportunity for contemporary style living amidst so much of the city’s heritage and with easy access into the city and Clifton, The Works is an enviable place to live.

If you want to be one of the first to view the brand new show apartment, visit the new marketing suite this weekend, located on Gas Ferry Road and open from 10am until 5pm. Alternatively, call the Linden One Stop on 0845 676 0127 or email [email protected] .

With an improving housing market, there has never been a better time to invest in your home. Summer is a great time to upgrade your home. Start with the kitchen, the hub of the home, particularly if you have a growing family or want to add value to your property. A stylish fi tted kitchen can send your house price rocketing.

This season choose either wood fi nishes mixed with coloured units to achieve a warmer, cosy look. Alternatively, with high gloss doors in a variety of colours, your kitchen can be

well and truly colourful. Add fashionable glass splash backs, up stands, or glass tiles to add an extra dimension of colour. These will not only enhance your kitchen and refl ect light, but are easy to clean too!

Indulge with a fantastic work surface, it will make a visual statement and last a lifetime. Granite or Silestone are in vogue but laminate can also impress. Choose well; get our designers to show you how.

Make your kitchen an ECO zone. Add water fi lters and coolers. Save trips to supermarkets and disposing of those plastic

bottles. Also add a waste deposer; your waste is out of your kitchen in seconds, no lingering smells. This waste is recycled as fertiliser. No food bins, no fl ies, no fuss!

Your new kitchen will have an impact on the way your family lives. You can help children with homework while making their supper or social entertaining in the kitchen while you do the cooking.

So instead of moving house when you need more space think wisely. Revamp, extend, and grow into your home.

32� PROPERTY�SOUTHWEST�•�April.mAy.June�2010

August is usuAlly the month when most of us go on holiday and leave our gardens to fend for themselves. Remember your garden still needs some tender loving care before you go away! Then you can relax and unwind knowing all your hardwork has not gone to waste!

While you are on holiday and your garden is left unattended, many of your plants can actually suffer due to lack of water. Make sure that, before you go, you either arrange to have your containers and baskets watered, or set up a system that can supply water on a regular basis to your tubs and baskets.

A product like Water Magic Crystals can also help. They swell to absorb 400 times their own weight in water and can treat up to 100 hanging baskets. Water Magic Crystals are available at Almondsbury, Lechlade and Cheddar Garden Centres at only £4.99 a bag.

After your relaxing holiday it will be worth dead-heading the baskets, dead-heading the tubs and generally reviving the garden by this sort of maintenance technique. Dead- heading bedding, roses and other plants will all help to bring the garden back to life again after your absence.

looking After your pond!Have you thought about Tropical Water Lilies? They make a spectacular show of colour for any water garden. Whereas hardy Water Lilies bloom only during the day, tropical varieties, which are considered annuals in this area, include day and night bloomers. This makes it possible to enjoy the bloom

in the late afternoon and evening. Day blooming tropical Water Lilies bloom heavier than hardy lilies. These beautiful flowers stay open longer each day and they bloom much later into the season and will provide stunning colour for those evening barbecues and parties.

It's also time to switch from spring fish food to summer fish food since water temperatures have risen above 70 degrees. At higher temperatures, fish metabolize at a faster rate, thus creating a need for a diet higher in protein, which the summer food contains.

For any more hints and tips visit www.parkgardencentres.co.uk

Its your summer so enjoy!

Tropical Water Lilies make a spectacular show of colour for any water garden.

WILLIAMS MAZDA in Bristol is now offering its customers a new sporty Takuya special edition range for the summer, featuring evocative styling and high-levels of standard equipment representing excellent value for money to customers. The latest special edition range follows on from the successes of the Mazda2, Mazda3 and Mazda6 Tamura special editions earlier this year.

The name ‘Takuya’ – pronounced ‘tah-koy-yah’ – is taken from the Japanese for forerunner or pioneer. Available at the Avon Meads showroom from 1 July 2010 the new variants are available in the Mazda2, Mazda3 and Mazda6 model line-ups and offer added value for Bristol customers.

The generously equipped new Takuya models incorporate features normally only available with top-of-the-range derivatives, including exterior sports styling, larger alloy wheels, a Bluetooth® system and a sports interior.

“The new Mazda Takuya range offers buyers genuine exclusivity, evocative sports styling and represents fantastic value for money,” comments David Jones dealer principal at Williams Mazda.

“Previous Special Edition Mazda models have proved hugely popular, fast selling and boast impressive residual values. The Takuya range offers yet another reason for value-seeking consumers that want something different to the mainstream to head down to their local Mazda dealership this summer,” continues David Jones.

MAZDA2 TAKUYACOMPACT AND SPORTYPriced from £11,915 (OTR), the 1.3-litre Mazda2 five-door Takuya is the entry point into the special edition range. The Takuya boasts 16-inch alloy wheels, a sports styling kit (incorporating spoiler, sports

bumpers and side skirts) and front fog lights. The interior benefits from black sports trim, trip computer, leather steering wheel and gear knob, steering wheel remote audio controls and a Parrot Bluetooth® hands-free kit.

The 1.3 Mazda2 (86ps) is a remarkably frugal yet feisty model. The hatchback produces just 125g/km CO2 and returns 54.3mpg, yet is one of the finest handling and fun to drive superminis on sale in the UK.

MAZDA3 TAKUYA – ADDED APPEAL FOR POPULAR HATCHMoving up through the Mazda range, buyers will find the 1.6-litre Mazda3 five-door Takuya. This model boasts a very impressive specification including a leather steering wheel and shift knob, automatic dual-zone climate control air conditioning, black sports interior trim, sports seats, an integrated Bluetooth® system, LED lights, a six-disc CD changer and rain-sensing wipers.

Priced from just £15,780 the incredibly well appointed Mazda3 Takuya represents excellent value for money. Boasting a combined fuel economy figure of 44.8mpg and a low-for-class 149g/km CO2 emissions, the 105ps 1.6-litre

hatchback will follow the Mazda2 Takuya’s lead and offer unrivalled fun behind the wheel.

MAZDA6 TAKUYA – FRUGAL FAMILY FUNMazda6 buyers will find Takuya special edition models in three different guises: 2.0-litre five-door (£19,845), 2.2D 163ps five-door (£20,945) and 2.2D 163ps Estate (£21,595). All three variants benefit from the fitment of 18-inch alloy wheels, a sports grille and dusk-sensing headlights on the exterior, while the interior benefits from an alloy pedal set, half-leather heated seats, auto-dimming rear view mirror, dual-zone automatic climate control air conditioning, leather steering wheel and shift knob and a choice of paint colours.

Vehicles fitted with the 2.0-litre petrol powerplant are capable of accelerating from 0-62mph in 10.3 seconds en route to a 134mph maximum speed. Combined fuel economy of 40.9mpg is achievable and CO2 emissions of 159g/km put the petrol Mazda6 in road tax band G. Meanwhile, the 2.2D 163ps models return an impressive 52.3mpg combined and produce 142g/km CO2 (five-door; estate produces 143g/km CO2). Both versions hit 62mph in just 9.2 seconds.

Williams Mazda offers customers sporty Mazda ‘Takuya’ special editions for summer
