Private balconies are in demand when it comes to apartment living in Bracknell, Berkshire, with only 8%* of homes offering the much-desired outdoor space.
Not only bringing 88 premium private-sale apartments – with balconies or terraces – to the market at its Bracknell town-centre development, Countryside Homes’ Brickmark Place scheme also boasts panoramic views across the Berkshire landscape.
With a recently launched 16th floor show home now open, buyers can get a taste for indoor/outdoor living for themselves, while exploring the variety of one-, two- and three- bedroom apartments on offer.
Forming part of Bracknell’s £240 million town centre regeneration, the stylish development sets a new benchmark for apartment living in the area. Countryside brings established experience in the local market, following the delivery and sell-out success of its Coopers Hill development to the south of the town centre.
Emily Gilchrist, Sales and Marketing Director at Countryside Homes, comments: “Outdoor space continues to be a priority for buyers, and having a private balcony for every home at Brickmark Place is a key part of the appeal. It provides residents with their own outdoor area to relax, entertain or simply enjoy the changing seasons, which is not always the case with town-centre apartments.
Bracknell itself has evolved significantly in recent years, with continued investment helping to strengthen its appeal as a town-centre destination. The redevelopment of The Lexicon in 2017 has played a major role in that shift, creating a vibrant hub for retail, leisure and events and driving increased activity throughout the town. Combined with strong transport links and access to key employment centres, this makes Brickmark Place an attractive opportunity for both local buyers and those from across the wider Berkshire area.”
Homes at Brickmark Place have been designed with a focus on quality, and convenience featuring a high specification throughout, with Amtico flooring, integrated Bosch appliances and en suites to selected apartments. Private balconies provide valuable outdoor space, extending the living area, and secure on-site parking is available for all two- and three-bedroom apartments, with a limited number of spaces also allocated to one-bedroom homes.
Bracknell’s town centre is anchored by The Lexicon, a major retail and leisure destination, home to brands including GAILs, Fenwick, Marks & Spencer, H&M and Next, alongside a wide choice of popular restaurants, such as Giggling Squid, Wagamama and Five Guys. A 12-screen Cineworld cinema, regular markets and seasonal events offer plenty to enjoy at the weekend, while independent cafés and eateries are also woven throughout the centre. For creatives, South Hill Park is Berkshire’s centre for the arts, housing two theatres, a dance studio, making spaces and a cinema, all within the grounds of an 18th century mansion house. The impressive venue hosts over 300 shows, films and events a year, as well as a wide range of courses and workshops, and is just a six-minute drive from new homes at Brickmark Place.
Beyond the high street, residents can enjoy a number of nearby green spaces, including 56 acres of restored heritage parkland and gardens at Lily Hill Park, as well as the leafy woodland trails of Swinley Forest, stretching over 2,600 acres of gentle hills from Bracknell to Crowthorne.
