A hop, skip and a jump up the property ladder at The Coppice
According to recent research by Lloyds Banking Group , almost 61% of second steppers say they have been unable to move up the property ladder, and face a wide range of challenges including suitability and affordability. Further to this, the Post Office’s Step-Up report from August this year suggested that it can take buyers on average 14 years to move into a second home. Bellway Homes’ development The Coppice at Priors Green, Takeley has a range of properties perfect for homeowners looking for more space for their ever growing families. With a variety of 5 bedroom homes on offer, The Coppice is proving popular for second steppers, as over half of the buyers have been those climbing the property ladder.
The Eaton is available with two of Bellway’s great special offers, which are a great help to those looking to progress up the property ladder. The first is Part Exchange; Bellway provides a fair offer for your home based upon an independent valuation, then purchase your existing home where you can remain until your new home is ready. The second is Express Mover whereby Bellway Homes works with a local agent to market your existing home and find a buyer as quickly as possible. Both special offers are subject to terms and conditions.
Sales Manager Paul Timson of Bellway Homes comments: “There are many reasons why homeowners are reluctant to take that step up, with stress from the uncertainty of selling, dealing with estate agents and negotiating with buyers among them. The Part Exchange Scheme we offer takes away some of that pressure and makes the process far less stressful, so buyers can enjoy their new home before they even move in”
Priced at £459,995, the Eaton is a three storey, 5 bedroom detached property with a range of features that would suit a busy family. The ground floor has a spacious living room, dining room and cloakroom. The property boasts a fitted kitchen with stainless steel oven and gas hob, integrated fridge/freezer and dishwasher, with additional seated family area, enabling parents and children to come together after a long day, and adjoining utility area.
The first floor comprises of a large master bedroom with fitted, mirrored wardrobes and an en-suite bathroom, an additional double bedroom with en-suite, and a fifth bedroom that would make a perfect play/homework room. The third floor has two further double bedrooms and a family bathroom.
Ideal for those with children, the development is located in the picturesque village of Takeley, which has a purpose built day nursery and primary school a short walk from The Coppice. It is also in the catchment area for two secondary schools: King Edward IV Grammar and Chelmsford County High for girls.
Takeley is well equipped with many different activities for families, such as the House on the Hill Toy Museum and Hatfield Forest a short drive away, both offering great family days out. Takeley Sports Field offers football pitches and basketball courts, and Takeley Park & Great Canfield Parks are all within walking distance too. In addition, supermarkets, independent shops and leisure facilities are located in Great Dunmow, just 10 minutes away, and in nearby Bishop’s Stortford offers high street shops and boutiques for the discerning shopaholic.
The development is well placed for travel further afield, with the M11 and Stansted Airport both just minutes away. Takeley is also convenient for commuters wishing to escape the hustle and bustle of the city, with central London just under an hour away by train on the Stansted Express.
Priced from £439,995 for a five bedroom house, and available with Bellway’s Express Mover and Part Exchange schemes, The Coppice really is a great development for second steppers.
