New homes in Glenfield are a gift

Those who long for a life of luxury in the popular Leicester suburb of Glenfield could find they’re able to move this side of Christmas.

The Orchards is an exclusive, intimate development featuring some of the largest and most luxurious homes from Redrow’s sought-after New Heritage Collection. Some of the properties are almost ready to move into, enabling those who act fast to celebrate a good old fashioned family Christmas in the style and comfort of a brand new home.

Pauline Turnbull, sales director for Redrow Homes (Midlands), commented: “The Orchards is really taking shape now and as people see that work is progressing we’re receiving an increase in enquiries from those who aspire to live here. The good news for potential purchasers is that while the festive season is almost upon us, it’s not too late to enjoy a pre-Christmas move. In fact buyers could be unlocking their new front door before they’ve opened the final door on their advent calendar.”

Four and five-bedroom homes at The Orchards are available from £424,995. Among the beautiful new properties that are simply waiting for the finishing touches to transform a house into a home, is the five-bedroom Buckingham at £559,995.

The open plan kitchen, breakfast area and family room is an inviting sociable space that’s the ideal setting for a festive family feast or those who want a more formal dining experience could enjoy turkey and all the trimmings in the separate dining room.

After dinner the family can retire to the dining room to play parlour games or watch their favourite Christmas specials on the television.

Raised ceiling heights help emphasise the light and airy nature of the Buckingham and other properties at The Orchards, while under-floor heating offers plenty of warmth.

“Cooking Christmas dinner in a brand new Redrow home will be a pleasure as they’re well equipped with integrated top brand name appliances, including oven, microwave, wine cooler and fridge freezer. Plus with a dishwasher also included there’ll be no need to worry about the washing up,” Pauline added.

All five bedrooms in the Buckingham are doubles and there are four en-suites as well as the family bathroom and ground floor cloakroom. All bathrooms are equipped with elegant Villeroy & Boch sanitaryware, ceramic floor and wall tiles and high quality fixtures and fittings. The master en-suite is designed as a wet room.

The leafy suburb of Glenfield offers excellent primary schools and good access to the M1/M69 for commuting.
