You’ll be wrapped up cosily in high levels of insulation – ready for winter’s worst – to ensure your comfort is balanced by minimal energy costs. To top it off, all the homes enjoy the added benefit of photovoltaic roof-panels, giving you electricity that’s absolutely free all year round.
French doors mean you can step straight into your ready-turfed garden from your living room. While on warm summer days the welcome scent of your favourite flowers will have free rein to enter your home.
And, of course, you’ll have your own dedicated parking space too, which is a real bonus for every driver.
Says who? None less than The Sunday Times in an article in 2020. That’s a commendation that’s not handed out lightly – so go and see for yourself. Better still, enjoy its welcome in a new home in Baily Court.
You’ll find stability because Downend is overwhelmingly a collection of terraced Victorian homes that blend in with later additions from the 1930s and 1950s. They’ve all had ample time to settle, to mature. It’s not an area with large, anonymous building developments popping up at all points of the compass. The lives of our children play a vital role in harnessing community spirit, so it’s good to know that Downend is well-served right through from nursery to the nearby campuses of the University of the West of England.
At a time when high streets right around the country are under pressure, it’s a pleasure to see that Downend’s cafés, pubs, and shops are still bustling with loyal local patrons. And, at communal get-togethers such as the local cricket club, and the Round Table fireworks display, you’ll find yourself meeting old friends and soon making new ones.
The many sports and special-interest clubs and societies are always keen to welcome new members, so your social life can be as busy as you like it to be. And, if gardening is your passion, Baily Court is just a few strings of beans away from the tidily tended plots in Dial Lane allotments. So, you’ll be moving into a community with deep roots. A community where your ability to contribute will be welcomed and encouraged. You’ll quickly find that your own roots will flourish, too.
