Commuters can leave the city behind after a long day’s work for the peaceful environment at Taylor Wimpey’s Mayberry Place development of new homes for sale in Aylesbury.

City workers looking for a retreat in the country without the hassle of a lengthy commute each day can find their perfect home at Mayberry Place, Taylor Wimpey’s well-connected development of properties in Aylesbury.

Commuters are flocking to snap up these fabulous apartments and houses for sale in Aylesbury, priced from just £139,950, and take advantage of Aylesbury Vale Parkway railway station just a few minutes’ walk away for services to London in just over an hour.

As of December 2012, Chiltern Railways has introduced an enhanced service between the station and London Marylebone, with additional trains now running in each direction during peak and off-peak hours.

Meanwhile, those working locally can enjoy easy access from their new property in Aylesbury to the public transport hub, thanks to the park-and-ride facilities at the station, while local bus routes also provide connections to Gatwick, Heathrow and Luton airports.

Christine Scarborough, Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey Buckinghamshire, says: “Commuters can often pay a premium for homes in a fantastic, well-connected location, but the great-value prices available at our Mayberry Place development of houses and apartments in Aylesbury mean they can have it all!

“Mayberry Place enjoys incredible transport links for those working in London or more locally, and also boasts a peaceful location bordered by picturesque countryside. The only note of caution I’d sound is that these stunning new homes are likely to be snapped up quickly, so buyers must hurry to secure their perfect match!”

Two-bedroom apartments are priced from just £139,950 at Mayberry Place, while three-bedroom houses are available from only £265,000. Four-bedroom homes are available from £325,000 and magnificent five-bedroom homes from £299,950.

The Government-backed FirstBuy scheme is available with selected plots, enabling first-time buyers to secure their new home for just 80% of its full purchase price, including a 5% deposit, subject to status.

FirstBuy works through a joint loan of 20% from the Homes and Communities Agency and Taylor Wimpey, which is repayable at the end of the 25-year mortgage term or when the property is sold. To be eligible, purchasers must be first-time buyers and their total household earnings should be less than £60,000.

All new homes at Mayberry Place are completed to a high standard specification, including energy efficient central heating, double glazing and a fitted kitchen with integrated oven, hob and hood.

Mayberry Place forms part of Aylesbury’s stunning new Berryfields community which will comprise exceptional community facilities and employment opportunities alongside more than 3,000 homes. There is also provision for two primary schools at Berryfields and the planned state-of-the-art Aylesbury Academy.

A local centre will include a food store and ten other smaller shops, while acres of parks and green open spaces, including a riverside park area, will also feature 13 equipped play areas for families to enjoy. A community centre will provide a focal point for the residents of the new homes and a new health centre is also planned.

Berryfields will enjoy an integrated network of footpaths, cycleways and bridleways – for cyclists there will be 8km of cyclepaths within the estate which will link into the existing cycle route along the A41 into the town centre.

Commuters can find out more about the benefits of choosing a new home at Mayberry Place by visiting the Sales Information Centre, located off Aylesbury Vale Parkway, Bicester Road, Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, HP18 0PS, and open Tuesday to Sunday from 10am to 5.30pm and Mondays from 2pm to 5.30pm.
