Home-hunters looking to combine working from home with living in a beautiful rural location can do just that at Taylor Wimpey’s The Hopyard at Martley development in Martley, Worcestershire.

That’s because fibre optic broadband will be available shortly, bringing high-speed internet access to the new two, three, four and five-bedroom homes at this stunning development.

Larger families will appreciate the super fast broadband as it enables everyone in the home to get online at the same time, whether they enjoy multi-player gaming, streaming films to their television or video calling friends and family around the world.

Close to the charming village centre and bordered by picturesque open countryside, yet within easy reach of good road and rail links, The Hopyard at Martley is the ideal rural retreat, without the disadvantages of living somewhere more remote!

Anne Wallace, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “Working from home surrounded by tranquil countryside is a dream for many people – and it can be a reality for the new residents at The Hopyard at Martley, thanks to fibre optic broadband which will be available shortly.

“Our homes offer the space and flexibility required to make home-working a breeze, with larger properties including a separate study which provides a quiet space to work away from the bustle of family life, and other designs offering bedrooms which can alternatively be used as a home office.

“Anyone hoping to enjoy the perfect work-life balance at The Hopyard at Martley is advised to visit us soon to ensure they don’t miss out on their dream home at this highly-desirable development!”

Two-bedroom homes are currently available at the development from only £179,995, with four-bedroom designs starting at £329,950 and five-bedroom houses from £469,960 – but house-hunters will need to act fast to take advantage of these pre-showhome prices!

The four-bedroom ‘Heydon’, for example, is priced at £399,950 and features a large kitchen/dining room and a dual-aspect living room, which both open through French doors to the private rear garden, plus a study, a utility room and a guest cloakroom off the entrance hallway.

Upstairs, the landing leads to two en-suite bedrooms, two further bedrooms and a main bathroom, while outside, the property benefits from a double garage and driveway parking.

Martley boasts two well-regarded pubs, shops and a post office, a garage, a play area, a village hall and a library, as well as a busy calendar of community events.

Families will appreciate that Martley Church of England Primary School is within walking distance of The Hopyard at Martley and was rated ‘good’ in its most recent Ofsted inspection. For secondary age pupils, The Chantry School is rated ‘outstanding’ and also includes a community-use leisure centre with a climbing wall.

The new homes offer superb opportunities to make the most of the great outdoors, with a good network of footpaths to enjoy through the gorgeous surrounding countryside, while the Worcestershire Way route passes through the village.

Martley lies approximately eight miles from Worcester, a thriving city that boasts all the conveniences of 21st century living. Along the High Street, The Shambles and Broad Street, visitors will find a diverse selection of chain stores and boutiques.

For commuters, Worcester has two railway stations for services to Birmingham, London, Oxford and Bristol, while the new homes are also within easy reach of the M5 for quick links to Birmingham and the M42.
