Coates House – Bristol

Ocea will be converting this 28,000 sq. ft. disused commercial office space into approximately 56 residential apartments in Nailsea, near Bristol.

Purchased in May 2017, Coates House will be transformed into intelligently designed city-pads, single and two bed properties to meet the housing requirement for local families and individuals seeking accommodation close to Bristol.

This project is currently in the planning phase, and this profile will be updated throughout the development process, to demonstrate how Ocea and its investment partners breathe new life into unloved commercial properties. If you currently own a disused property, or would like to invest in a similar project, then please contact us at info@ocealife.com.

During Conversion

04^th April 2019

First fix electrical works are progressing well throughout and is nearing completion on the third floor and with 75% of all partitioning complete you can really begin to see the apartments coming together.

Steel framing for the extension to the rear of the building is now nearing completion and with the roof coverings being laid on the external terraces, you can now witness the incredible countryside views that these units will have to offer.

On the ground floor, the internal drainage has been constructed with the floor slab and DPM laid above, the contractor has now begun the construction of the partitioning for these units.

All the windows on the front elevation have now been fitted with further installation of windows to each side of building beginning over the next couple of weeks.

Great progress made this month by Pollard.

6th March 2019

This month at Coates House, some of the units are really starting to take shape with the internal walls of the apartments flying up on the first, second & third floors.

Overall, the contractor has made great progress this month with the completion of the steel works to the rear elevations along with the metal decking laid and concrete poured to the roof and first floor. First fix M&E began towards to the end of the month and this is now progressing well on the second and third floors as they work their way down the building.

Windows have now been successfully installed on the front elevation with the white interior giving a classic homely feel and the exterior anthracite colour providing the building with a new contemporary look!

It’s all really starting to come together now, and with the walls up, we’re extremely excited to see the finished product!
