Enjoying the countryside at Dean Acre

Bishops Cleeve in the Cotswolds wasn’t the first location Lewis Brooks and Kirstie Wallace thought of when they started looking to buy their first home together. But when they visited Taylor Wimpey’s Dean Acre development in the village they quickly realised it was everything they were looking for.

Lewis, a civil servant in Cheltenham, said: “When we first started looking for a home I really wasn’t keen on looking in Cleeve. It was a much longer commute than I had been used to and it was a real countryside location and we lived in the town. I didn’t think it was what I wanted.”

But the couple visited the development and were delighted with what they found.

Lewis said: “We realised what we could get for our money here and it’s a lovely area - and as Kirstie grew up in the country in Cheshire she loved it straight away. We now have a great view across the countryside so she’s really happy.”

The couple bought a three bedroom Gosford and have just moved in. Kirstie, who works for Vodafone, said: “We have been so impressed with the sales advisers. They were outstanding helping us to move here and they are still helping us now we’ve moved in. Overall the service has been excellent.”

The couple are now looking forward to enjoying their new home. Kirstie said: “We’ve got a few plans. We’re saving up now for some new furniture and we’re really excited about starting work on the garden. We lived in a flat before so it’s lovely to be able to have the outside space. And we’ve got lots of room for family and friends to come and stay and in the furture think about starting our own family here.”

Richard Goad, regional sales and marketing director for Taylor Wimpey, said: “We’re delighted that Lewis and Kirstie have found their first home with Taylor Wimpey. And where better to find it than the picturesque location of Bishops Cleeve.

“I’d urge anyone interested in moving to a countryside location with superb commuter links to visit Dean Acre. There are good schools and leisure facilities in the area and the M5 is just a short drive from the development making Dean Acre an ideal setting for family life. Our experienced sales consultants will answer any questions you may have so come on down and see how we can get you moving.”

There is just one two bedroom property remaining at Dean Acre priced at £159,995. The development is also selling four and five bedroom properties which require a deposit of just £8,249 with the NewBuy scheme.

Situated at the foot of Cleeve Hill, the highest point in the Cotswolds, Dean Acre is a delightful village that boasts a rich history which dates back to the Iron Age. A wealth of local amenities including primary and secondary schools, restaurants, shops and sports facilities are all within a stone’s throw away from the development.

For commuters, Dean Acre is ideally situated, with the M5 offering easy access to both Birmingham and Bristol and direct roads to Cheltenham and Gloucester.
