Summary - 1, WATHEN STREET, BRISTOL, STAPLE HILL BS16 5FN
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
New-build, low-maintenance two-bed with parking and 10-year guarantee.
Two double bedrooms with vaulted ceilings and triple-glazed skylights
This newly built two-bedroom semi-detached house on Wathen Street offers contemporary, low-maintenance living in Staple Hill. The open-plan kitchen/living area with Cotizo aluminium bi-fold doors creates a bright indoor-outdoor space, while an allocated parking space and a private rear courtyard make daily life convenient. Triple glazing, a new Vaillant gas boiler and high insulation standards are designed to keep running costs low. The property also comes with a new 10-year building guarantee for added peace of mind.
Upstairs there are two double bedrooms beneath characterful vaulted ceilings and edgeless triple-glazed skylights that flood the rooms with natural light. Practical features include a fully fitted cloakroom, a tucked-away utility area with plumbing for a washing machine, and integrated Neff appliances in a contemporary U-shaped kitchen. Finished touches such as oak internal doors and brushed steel handles give the home a modern, durable feel.
Buyers should note material local factors: the area records higher crime levels and is classified as very deprived, which may affect long-term resale and rental demand. Council tax banding and the EPC are still being assessed. The rear space is a courtyard-style, low-maintenance garden rather than a large lawn — suitable for decking and alfresco evenings but limited for larger-scale outdoor uses.
This property suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a low-upkeep, modern home close to local amenities and good primary and secondary schools. With contemporary fittings, allocated parking and a 10-year build warranty, it offers immediate move-in readiness while presenting realistic trade-offs linked to the surrounding neighbourhood.
