So when they heard that Banner Homes was building an over 55s development in the centre of Beaconsfield, they went down to Halstead Court to make sure they were one of the first in line to purchase one of the properties available at the exclusive gated development, comprising of bungalows and apartments.

One of the couple’s main wishes was to remain in the area so they could be close to family and friends. Sylvia explains; “When we first saw the leaflet advertising Halstead Court we were bowled over by its great central location. The development is only a few minutes level walk away from Beaconsfield town centre and has all the local amenities that we could need on our doorstep. It is also great to know that with our new location of our home, we don’t have to rely on a car to get ‘out and about’, as everything is easily accessible by foot.”

The couple were also attracted to the prospect of living in a new build home, Sylvia explains; “We have lived in a few new build properties before and we love the benefits that they offer, for example up-to-date, modern equipment. The property is also so much easier to maintain as everything is brand new, therefore you don’t have to constantly worry about things going wrong and spending out vast sums of money putting things right.”

The couple took advantage of Banner’s part-exchange scheme. Sylvia comments; “It was great that we didn’t have to worry about chains, interrogating house viewings or a lengthy selling time. In fact, the whole move was a nice, smooth process.”

Banner Homes Premier Part Exchange scheme allows buyers to move easily into a new Banner home without the delays and uncertainties that can be experienced when selling an existing property. The scheme also allows purchasers to secure the home they wish to purchase in advance of the build completion date, without having to worry about tying together legal completion dates that are several months in the future. Under the scheme, completion dates for the two properties will be identical and there is no need to consider concerns over temporary accommodation or bridging facilities.

Halstead Court located on desirable Warwick Road, is a prestigious development of two three-bedroom chalet and twelve two and three-bedroom apartments situated in a gated setting, all within an easy level walk of Beaconsfield’s picturesque town centre.

All properties at the development benefit from en-suite facilities to the master bedrooms and high quality fixtures and fittings. Beautifully designed kitchens feature granite worktops and ceramic flooring.

The properties provide plenty of room for entertaining and overnight guests and with an abundance of restaurants and inns in the local area there are plenty of ways to spend your spare time. The apartments are in a central location, with Waitrose, M & S Simply Food and the town centre just a few minutes level walk away. From tea rooms to tapas, Beaconsfield offers something for everyone.

If you prefer more active pursuits, there are a wide selection of sports clubs, leisure facilities, church and cultural groups that encourage residents to join with the local neighbourhood and engender a sense of community.

Prices at Halstead Court start from £450,000 and rise to £545,000. The development is now complete and ready for immediate occupation. As an added incentive, stamp duty will be paid for all reservations taken for a limited time only. The apartments also come fitted with carpets, curtains and light fittings.
