New homes turn up the heat on Chester housing market

Chester ranks in the top three locations for housing and by expanding their search to nearby Saighton, buyers can embrace a more rural lifestyle.

Based on value for money – drawn from both prices and average incomes – and the overall quality of life including local employment levels, amenities, schools, connectivity to the internet and accessibility to public transport, Chester makes the grade in Property Week’s Hot Housing Index.

Situated just three miles from the city centre, yet close to the rolling Cheshire countryside, new homes at Elan’s Westminster Place development are perfectly placed.

Marie Morris, sales director for Elan Homes in the North, said: “We have a proven track record of building in some of the region’s most desirable neighbourhoods and the fact that Chester ranks amongst the best locations when it comes to value and quality of life is no surprise – the city also features in the Sunday Times guide to the Best Places to Live.

“Location plays a pivotal part in buyers’ decision making when they’re choosing where to live and people have been showing keen interest in the properties at Westminster Place. It’s a great addition to the local market – offering buyers more the chance to live close to the villages of Saighton and Huntington with good local schools and a supermarket nearby, yet within easy reach of the city centre too.

“We’re currently selling ‘off plan’ and along with firm sales we’ve also taken ‘early bird’ reservations for homes not yet on release. Plus, we’re also working with potential purchasers who want to move here but have properties they need to sell before they can buy.”

Current availability at Westminster Place includes four and five-bedroom detached homes with prices from £339,995.

In purchasing ‘off plan’ buyers will be able to choose from a range of interior options to tailor make their home. There’s even the option to add a Smart home hidden wire high speed digital multi-room entertainment and communications system.
