Expert advice for Horsforth buyers as new show home opens

The opening of a new show home this weekend (February 24/25) marks the latest milestone in the development of a new neighbourhood being shaped by Redrow in Horsforth.

This year marks the 10th anniversary of the closure of the old Clariant Works site, which along with a neighbouring mill, has been transformed beyond recognition into a thriving new community.

Redrow began building in Horsforth in 2015 and, since then, well over 200 homes have been sold.

Currently selling from The Green at Horsforth Vale and the neighbouring Woodlands, Redrow is moving into a new combined sales office to market both developments and opening a four-bedroom detached Oxford style show home to complement existing York and Kennilworth properties across the two sites.

And, during the Oxford’s launch weekend, experts will be on hand from 11am to 4pm to help buyers who are looking to master a move to a new home.

Patsy Aicken, sales director for Redrow Homes (Yorkshire), explains: “Horsforth Vale has blossomed into a vibrant new community, where people really want to live. The opening of the latest show home is an opportunity to celebrate the progress we’ve made to date and to showcase what life here could be like for those who choose to make a Redrow home their own.

“We’d encourage anyone looking for a new home in the Leeds area to come along this weekend. New homes mortgage specialists will be here to assess buyers’ finances and we’ll have professionals on hand to help explain how our Mastermove service could make it so much easier for them to sell their existing property.

“We will arrange valuations of the customer’s home, appoint an estate agent and take care of all the paperwork. We’ll monitor progress closely, liaise with the agent until the property is sold and, most importantly for our customers, pay towards the selling fees to save them money too.”

The new Oxford show home at Woodlands is a four-bedroom detached family home with integral garage. At its heart is the open plan kitchen, dining and family room, with adjoining utility. This sociable space is complemented by a separate lounge, with feature bay window, while a cloakroom completes the ground floor. Upstairs, all four bedrooms are generously proportioned, with the master benefiting from an en-suite to complement the family bathroom.

The Oxford has been professionally styled and furnished to help customers imagine how their own new home could look.

There’s also a fully furnished York style four-bedroom semi available to view at Woodlands; while over at The Green, a four-bedroom Kenilworth townhouse can be viewed by appointment; and there’s even the chance to own a former show home, the three-bedroom detached Warwick, for £389,950.

Between the two phases, Woodlands and The Green offer a good choice of three and four-bedroom homes, with current prices from £319,950.

Situated on Calverley Lane, the Redrow homes enjoy a great location on the edge of sought-after Horsforth, six miles from Leeds city centre, and set amidst mature trees and open space, alongside the River Aire and close to the Leeds-Liverpool Canal.

The new show home at Woodlands open this Saturday (February 24).
