Showcasing stylish new homes in Essex
Taylor Wimpey’s expert interior designers have pulled out all the stops to create three amazing showhomes at Praecedo, the leading housebuilder’s popular development of properties in Colchester.
The interiors of these three homes each offer something different to appeal to property-hunters with an eye for style – whatever their taste in design.
The beautiful two-bedroom ‘Pelle’ coach house-style show apartment boasts a bold retro-themed design and sixties inspired furnishings, while the two-bedroom ‘Naylor’ show house has been fabulously finished in calm, neutral colours with accents of duck egg blue and warm silvers.
Meanwhile, the impressive interior of the three-bedroom ‘Bailey’ show house is luxurious yet traditional, with deep reds, browns and greys creating a warm and inviting environment that’s perfect for contemporary family lifestyles.
Michael O’Leary, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “The three stunning showhomes at Praecedo simply have to be seen by anyone looking for a new home in Colchester.
“Not only do the individual designs reflect the very latest interior trends, but they also demonstrate the amazing lifestyle that purchasers at Praecedo can look forward to in their brand new home.”
The ‘Bailey’ townhouse features a wonderful open-plan kitchen/dining/family room that spans the entire depth of the property and opens through French doors to the private rear garden, while a guest cloakroom is also located off the spacious entrance hallway.
Upstairs, the first-floor landing leads to the living room, a well-proportioned bedroom and a bathroom, while two further double bedrooms and a shower room are located on the top floor. Outside, the property benefits from allocated parking. Homes of this design are priced from £209,995 at Praecedo.
Meanwhile, the ‘Naylor’ terraced home, which is priced from only £157,995, boasts a living/dining room, a kitchen, a guest cloakroom, two bedrooms, a bathroom and allocated parking. The ‘Pelle’ coach house-style apartment, meanwhile, is priced from just £139,995, and features an open-plan kitchen/dining/living room, two bedrooms, a bathroom and a garage.
Alternatively, there’s a choice of three and four-bedroom houses at Praecedo from only £179,995 and £249,995 respectively.
Praecedo – which means to surpass or excel in Latin, in a nod to Colchester’s famous Roman heritage – is a collection of high-quality properties in a well-connected yet peaceful location overlooking the cricket ground in Mersea Road, with the tranquil open space of Abbey Field beyond.
The development’s convenient location offers huge appeal for those who work locally and who enjoy being within easy reach of a wide range of leisure pursuits, including pubs, restaurants and sports facilities. A choice of schools for children of all ages is also close by, as are two universities.
Colchester is a vibrant town with a fascinating history. From the old weavers’ cottages in the charming Dutch Quarter, the historic Castle Museum and Castle Park, to art galleries and cutting-edge exhibitions as well as an eclectic selection of shops, bars and restaurants, there is something for everyone.
Within easy reach of the beautiful rural Essex landscape, which inspired old masters from Constable to Gainsborough, Colchester is also handy for the great British seaside, as the coast at wonderful West Mersea is just 10 miles away.
Commuters will appreciate good rail and road links to Chelmsford, Brentwood and London – with regular train services to London Liverpool Street in under an hour – and to Ipswich, Bury St Edmunds, Cambridge and the Midlands. The M11 and Stansted Airport are easily accessible via the new A120.
Property-seekers hoping to view the stylish new showhomes at Praecedo should visit the Sales and Marketing Suite, located off Mersea Road, Colchester, CO2 7TB, and open Thursday to Monday from 10am to 5.30pm. Alternatively, log on to taylorwimpey.co.uk/eastlondon.
