Hazel Road, Knowle

"What we will probably miss most is the light. The flat is south-facing, and on bright days sunshine floods through the large windows, giving the whole place a cheerful, uplifting feeling. Waking up to the morning sun has been a genuine pleasure. As an unexpected bonus, the warmth and light also happen to be perfect for growing tomatoes on the balcony and getting bagels, focaccia and sourdough to rise beautifully."

The home

This modern two-bedroom apartment is finished to a high standard throughout, with a bright and spacious layout that works well for day-to-day living. Large triple-glazed windows maximize natural light, enhancing the sense of space and creating an inviting environment in both the double bedrooms and the main living area.

The open-plan living space is a particularly good size, offering plenty of room for both sitting and dining areas, whether entertaining guests or relaxing at home. The kitchen is modern and well-designed, with integrated appliances, useful storage and thoughtful details such as a built-in recycling drawer. There is also a separate utility area, which adds further practicality.

There are two double bedrooms, with the second bedroom currently working well as a home office while still offering the flexibility of a proper bedroom when needed. The main bedroom benefits from an en-suite, with a separate bathroom serving the rest of the flat. Further storage throughout makes the apartment easy to live in and keeps the space feeling uncluttered.

The property forms part of BoKlok on the Brook, a distinctive Scandinavian-built prefabricated development, which is the first of its kind in the UK. The build quality and energy efficiency are standout features, with excellent insulation and triple glazing helping the flat stay warm, dry and comfortable while keeping energy bills low. The property also has around five years remaining on the NHBC Buildmark warranty.

Outside space

The apartment has a private balcony, giving useful outdoor space directly from the flat. The building has two private entrances with an intercom system, along with a private car park and an allocated parking space.
