Enjoy affordable country living at The Orchards in Evesham

Homebuyers who are looking for a peaceful property in the country but think it might be out of their reach should take a closer look at The Orchards, Taylor Wimpey’s stunning new development in Evesham, Worcestershire.
This beautiful collection of two, three, four and five-bedroom houses, bordered by open countryside and mature trees, would make the perfect choice for those hoping to move out of the Birmingham suburbs to a tranquil rural retreat.
And with two semi-detached houses priced from just £162,995, three-bedroom properties from £178,995 and four-bedroom detached houses from £259,995, country living is considerably more affordable than people might think!
What’s more, the Government’s new Help to Buy shared equity scheme is available now at The Orchards, enabling first-time buyers and those looking to move home to purchase their new property for 80% of its full price, including a 5% deposit.
For example, the impressive four-bedroom ‘Eskdale’ detached house is priced £259,995, but can be purchased through Help to Buy for 80% of its full price, including a deposit as low as 5%.
Elaine Taylor, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “Those looking to move out of the suburbs and into the country will find that the prices of our new homes at The Orchards compare very favourably with second-hand homes on the market in the surrounding area.
“Typical four-bedroom homes in Worcestershire, for example, are currently for sale at over £350,000 – a massive £90,000 more than the ‘Eskdale’ at The Orchards!
“And with Help to Buy available on all new-build properties at the development, it’s even more affordable to buy your dream home in the country here!”
The ‘Eskdale’ features a light and airy kitchen/dining room with utility area, plus a spacious lounge opening through French doors to the private rear garden, and a guest cloakroom off the entrance hallway. Upstairs, the landing leads to an en-suite master bedroom, three further bedrooms and a main bathroom, while outside, there’s a garage and driveway parking.
All homes at The Orchards are completed to a high standard specification, including energy efficient central heating, double glazing and a fitted kitchen with integrated oven, hob and hood.
The Help to Buy shared equity scheme involves a Government loan of up to 20% and is available on all new-build properties at The Orchards up to the value of £600,000. There is no salary cap for purchasers using the scheme. The NewBuy initiative, meanwhile, gives credit-worthy purchasers in a variety of circumstances the chance to access their ideal home with a 95% mortgage.
The Orchards enjoys a spectacular setting where established natural features, including a picturesque orchard, mature trees and hedgerows and a tranquil stream, will be complemented by attractive landscaped open spaces.
Beyond the borders of the development lie open fields to the north, and peaceful walks can be taken into the stunning Worcestershire countryside along Shakespeare’s Avon Way. Meanwhile, an established residential community neighbours the development to the south, and Bengeworth First School, which was rated ‘outstanding’ by Ofsted at its latest inspection, is also right on the doorstep.
Evesham town centre is less than a mile away, where historic Tudor buildings rub shoulders with a superb selection of shops, bars, tea rooms and restaurants. Thanks to its stunning location on the River Avon, the town is also home to a wealth of watersports including rowing, canoeing, kayaking and sailing.
The development is just 18 miles from the M5 north, or 21 miles from the M5 south, while central Birmingham is just 31 miles away. Evesham railway station provides regular direct services to London and to Worcester for connections to Birmingham New Street.
