Summary - LAKE SHORE APARTMENT 248 LAKE SHORE DRIVE BRISTOL BS13 7BA
2 bed 2 bath Maisonette
Large modern maisonette with balcony overlooking private lake.
25% shared ownership—purchase price shown for share only
This bright two-bedroom maisonette in the Lakeshore development offers an accessible route onto the property ladder via 25% shared ownership. The apartment spans about 1,049 sq ft with a large open-plan living space, balcony with lake views, and two bathrooms — practical for first-time buyers or sharers.
The development sits within 10 acres of landscaped communal grounds and a private lake frequented by wildlife. Residents have free use of the on-site gym and benefit from fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The property was built between 2007–2011 and uses a community heating scheme.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: this is a leasehold with 109 years remaining, a high flood risk for the area, and a very high local crime level. Ongoing costs include a service charge of £4,490 per year and ground rent of £326 annually; monthly rent to staircase to 75% is quoted at £513.46.
For a first-time buyer seeking lifestyle and lakeside outlooks with modern interiors, this home presents good space and communal amenities. It does require careful budgeting for service charges, insurance, and flood risk mitigation before proceeding.
