Three brand-new accessible bungalows in Ashley Close, Walcot, are now ready for residents.
Developed to meet the growing need for affordable and adaptable homes, they feature step-free interiors, wider doorways, wet rooms, adjustable-height kitchen counters, private gardens and off-road parking. Solar panels and air source heat pumps also help keep running costs low.
Amber and her partner Claire, were among the first to move in with their young children. They had struggled in their previous home as their son’s Duchenne muscular dystrophy made stairs and narrow rooms increasingly unsafe. Amber said: “This bungalow has taken so much stress away from us… to help our son live the best life he can.”
With a safe, future-proofed space to grow up in, their son can enjoy greater independence while his parents have peace of mind.
