Three year milestone is double celebration

The three-bedroom Letchworth

Fresh inspiration is now available for buyers hoping to call a hugely popular neighbourhood in Halling ‘home’, following the opening of a stylish new show home (from October 8).

Launched three years ago, Redrow’s St Andrew’s Park has evolved into a highly desirable place in which to live and is home to a good mix of purchasers including first time buyers, young professionals, growing families and right sizers. It’s also attracted buy-to-let investors looking for properties within commutable distance of London.

As work on site has progressed and more people have moved in, Redrow has done some moving of its own, relocating to a new three-bedroom Letchworth style show home.

Rachael Baillie, sales director for Redrow Homes (South East), explains: “St Andrew’s Park remains a hugely popular development and if anything, has attracted more interest as time’s moved on and more of the homes have become occupied. There is a real community emerging, and the homes continue to be snapped up quickly, with no sign of things slowing down.

“Opening a new show home is a great way of celebrating the third anniversary of the development launching. We’d like to extend an open invitation to anyone looking for a property in the area to visit the new Letchworth show home to see all that a brand new Redrow home has to offer.”

With its external design evocative of the architecture of days gone by, the three-bedroom semi-detached Letchworth is a prime example of how Redrow’s Heritage Collection combines the charm and character of ‘period’ properties, with the style and convenience of being brand new.

On the ground floor, there’s a lounge to the front, open plan kitchen and dining room with French doors opening onto the rear garden, plus a laundry space and downstairs cloaks.

Upstairs the master bedroom benefits from an en-suite while the remaining two bedrooms share the family bathroom.

Current availability at St Andrew’s Park includes three and four-bedroom family homes from Redrow’s Heritage Collection, priced from £344,995. Two-bedroom apartments are also available with prices from £229,995.

Selected properties are available with Help to Buy equity loans.

Using the Government-backed scheme could reduce the initial cost of an apartment from £229,995 to £183,996. The lower price typically includes a 5% customer deposit and 75% mortgage from the purchaser’s chosen lender. The remaining 20% is covered by the equity loan, which is interest free for five years.

Set against a backdrop of chalk cliffs and a blue lake – an old chalk quarry fed by a large spring and given its bright blue colour by the chalk particles suspended in the water – the homes enjoys a picturesque location.

The village of Halling is home to local amenities including a post office and a host of handy shops while, for more serious retail therapy, there’s the Bluewater Shopping Centre just 13 miles away.

And, with London around 45 minutes from Halling via train, the homes also make an ideal commuter base.

Show homes at St Andrew’s Park are open daily from 10am to 5.30pm. For more information, visit redrow.co.uk/st-andrews.
