Countryside Properties creates a vibrant new community at Priors Green
The creation of a new community is now complete at Priors Green near Takeley, Essex, where Countryside Properties has included all of the key aspects to ensure a successful and vibrant new community. This includes a new primary school, day nursery, community centre and local shops for visitors and residents to enjoy.
Set within an idyllic rural landscape surrounded by countryside, the new village has also provided an extensive range of very popular new homes designed to suit a wide range of buyers including first time buyers, young couples, families and older buyers looking to downsize.
Andrew Carrington, Strategic Land Director at Countryside Properties comments: “At Priors Green, Countryside Properties has created a community where residents can enjoy an extensive range of facilities on their doorstep. This includes both a day nursery and primary school, which together cater for children up to 11 years old, a community centre with sports, recreational and club facilities and a range of local shops to ensure people can get their daily essentials. Due to the success of this development, there is only one 4 bedroom house remaining from Countryside Properties and a handful of 4 and 5 bedroom homes for sale by Bellway and Taylor Wimpey Homes. There are also a number of retail/commercial outlets available in the village centre for any interested businesses looking to develop in this exciting new area.”
At the heart of Priors Green is Takeley Primary School which relocated in September 2012 to the new purpose built primary school, which includes playing fields and sports pitches. Offering the capacity for a 2 form entry as and when demand increases, the new school will ensure that all children aged between 4 and 11 years old in the surrounding area are guaranteed a place. The school and the Parent Friend Association also run lots of fun events for the children and adults, which help to bring the whole community together.
