Background
Working with Cubex we’ve delivered 66 affordable homes at Coopers Court as part of the wider award-winning Finzels Reach mixed-use community. The development features 48 homes for social rent and 18 for Shared Ownership. Together, these provide an opportunity for first-time buyers to get on the property ladder and contribute to addressing the housing crisis in Bristol.
The development was designed to create a strong identity and sense of place, whilst ensuring it connects well to the surrounding area and works with heritage buildings nearby. Significant investment in improvements to the area around Coopers Court, including new landscaping, pedestrian and cycle routes, have all helped to create a more attractive area and foster a sense of community.
The sustainable and energy-efficient building connects into Bristol City Council’s District Heat Network and includes a bio-diversity roof amenity space and 94 cycling spaces to help tackle the environmental crisis.
