The latest showhome looks have been revealed at Taylor Wimpey’s development of new homes at Almond Park in Musselburgh – East Lothian’s largest town! Boasting superb kerb-appeal the practical two bedroom Andrew 2, three bedroom Balfour 2 and four bedroom detached Monro showhomes offer inspirational interiors that will appeal to first-time buyers and young families looking for a move to this stylish development of new homes.
Almond Park offers an impressive choice of two bedroom apartments, two and three bedroom terraced and semi detached homes, three and four bedroom detached as well as four bedroom townhouses from Taylor Wimpey’s Scotland 2 range - all designed to appeal to a wide range of buyers. Prices currently range from £147,500 for the two bedroom Andrew 2, up to £168,995 for the three bedroom Balfour 2.
The two bedroom Andrew 2 showhome boasts a high-gloss white fitted kitchen with a contrasting ‘inky’ black worktop that’s styled with bright yellow flowers that kick-starts a bold yellow floral theme that links every home in this contemporary home. The lounge enjoys French doors to the rear garden, and room for informal dining, plus a feature wall is home to a subtle grey and silver brick theme that’s effortlessly cool.
Upstairs bedroom one and two are either side of a spacious bathroom that enjoys sophisticated cool grey and white tiling for a simple and chic look. Each bedroom is a sanctuary of dove-grey, whites and accents of yellow creating two calming spaces to enjoy a good night’s rest. Single mirrored fitted wardrobes in bedroom two, plus double fitted wardrobes in bedroom one all adds up to plenty of storage space.
Next door the three bedroom Balfour 2 showhome offers a contemporary mix of cool white, with accents of turquoise blue and soft lime green throughout many of the rooms. The lounge offers a great space for informal family dining, plus French doors make the most of the rear garden. Upstairs there’s plenty of room to ensure everyone has their space to relax including a well-proportioned master bedroom that’s a great sanctuary after a long busy day, as well as two further bedrooms that will appeal to junior members of the family.
Completing the trio the impressive four bedroom detached Monro enjoys a warm palette of soft golds, silver and copper with accent colours and designs in every room that create a sophisticated and stylish home. The lounge provides a haven of style with comfortable warm white sofas that cleverly provide a natural base for the signature natural colours of gold, rust, soft silver and soft red that are used sparingly. Two large mirrors and an impressive dove grey side unit adds to the overall impact of space in this room.
The kitchen at the rear offers plenty of space for relaxed family dining, as well as French doors to the rear garden, plus an island discreetly separates the different areas of this room and provides great storage. The natural high-gloss wooden veneer of the fully-fitted kitchen boosts the overall easy-going style and flow of this family home. A handy utility room offers additional storage as well as a back door to the garden. Plus with seating for six, the separate dining room is a stylish place to entertain guests and adds flexibility to this great family home.
Upstairs the mix of natural colours of soft coppers and silver continue into the master bedroom. This room offers a subtle mix of luxurious fabrics that adds texture and opulence to this spacious room that also boasts an en suite, as well as two sets of fitted wardrobes. Splashes of raspberry from the bedspread, and cushions makes this a welcome place to retire to.
The remaining three bedrooms offer plenty of space for the rest of the family, and bedroom two also enjoys the benefit of an en suite so it’s likely to be popular with teenagers or a great guest bedroom!
The development is well positioned off Pinkie Road in Musselburgh to take advantage of superb transport links. Edinburgh city centre is within easy reach via the A1 by car, or the choice of two local train stations at Wallyford and Musselburgh itself make this location a superb choice for commuters. A good bus network also offers a great way to get round the local area.
Locally, Musselburgh’s High Street is bustling and vibrant with a variety of shops, bars and restaurants, whilst nearby Fort Kinnaird Retail Park offers big brand names and a choice of supermarkets. A good mix of primary and secondary education makes this a popular location for families.
And further afield, there is plenty to keep everyone amused from historic castles and churches, to adventurous days out at The Scottish Seabird Centre in North Berwick, The National Museum of Flight at East Fortune or the Prestongrange Industrial Heritage Museum. Musselburgh itself boasts a variety of recreational and sporting facilities including the award-winning Musselburgh Racecourse and the world’s oldest golf course - Musselburgh Links.
Opening new showhomes in Musselburgh gives Taylor Wimpey an opportunity to build on its reputation for great quality family homes as Karen Armstrong, sales and marketing director for Taylor Wimpey East Scotland adds: “We have a wide range of developments across the Lothians, but this is our first opportunity to showcase our new Scotland 2 range of new homes in East Lothian. And having the chance to see three different types of homes gives our customers a real sense of the range, style and quality of the new homes that we’re building in Musselburgh.
“This impressive range of new homes also allows buyers to benefit from modern space standards and enhanced insulation which can contribute to lower heating bills.
“Plus, our reputation to deliver high-quality stylish new homes is reinforced when buyers visit our new showhomes and see for themselves the levels of workmanship and attention to detail that comes as standard with every one of our new homes at Almond Park.
“This range has been carefully designed to offer a home that can adapt as buyers needs change throughout their life, whilst offering spacious well-designed living space for right now.
“To ensure buyers can make their move to Almond Park, we are also offering ways in which we can help – so incentives such as part-exchange, shared equity and the Scottish Government supported MI New Home Scheme that offers up to 95% mortgages is also available on selected new homes.”
