Ellington Gate proves a popular choice for buyers Positioned in the highly desirable town of Beaconsfield, Banner Homes’ Ellington Gate development has been capturing the attention of house hunters in the area and as such already 60% of the properties, priced a million pounds and over, have now been sold. Consequently, Banner Homes has just unveiled a new two-storey, 5 bedroom, 4 bathroom detached show home to help satisfy the high demand in the area.

Ellington Gate situated on Hedgerley Lane is an exclusive collection of 13 five bedroom two and three storey detached homes. Sarah Brunell, Sales Manager at Banner Homes Central: “Over the past few months Banner Homes as a company has been experiencing a strong demand for homes that are priced at the top end of the property market. Whilst market conditions may be challenging at present the appetite for purchasing quality homes in exceptional locations still remains. After all, people still need a place to live and over the mid to long-term, opportunities for financial gain will be good when investing in bricks and mortar. Therefore, it came as little surprise that since Ellington Gate launched at the end of last year it has been attracting a lot of interest from house hunters in the area.”

She continues: “It really seems that there is a thirst for large homes catering for 21st century living in Beaconsfield. The sought after area, combined with rural location, superb specification both inside and out, is attracting plenty of attention from families and couples looking for extra space. The new show home provides a fantastic opportunity for individuals to experience what they can expect from a Banner home before it is too late.”

Each home features a kitchen/breakfast room with French doors leading onto a patio and garden, as well as a separate dining room for elegant dinner parties. The professionally designed contemporary kitchens come complete with stainless steel integrated appliances including a double oven and dishwasher. Kitchens also include sleek granite worktops, under unit lighting and ceramic floor tiling. Bathrooms and master en-suites are laid out with half-height tiling as well as recessed downlights to create the perfect atmosphere for a romantic evening. Five spacious bedrooms are well laid out with the master bedroom suite comprising a dressing area, en-suite bathroom and a fantastic terrace.

From tea rooms to tapas, Beaconsfield offers something for everyone. Beaconsfield’s charming and historic ‘Old Town’ boasts an array of inviting restaurants and stylish boutiques and also hosts a popular farmers’ market within comfortable walking distance of Ellington Gate. For a more modern retail offer, including names such as Waitrose, Marks & Spencer and Space NK, Beaconsfield’s vibrant ‘New Town’ is not much farther away. The countryside surrounding Beaconsfield is dotted with several quaint villages such as Coleshill, Old Amersham and Great Missenden, each of which offers a great selection of pubs, local shops and picturesque leafy settings.

Beaconsfield also has a rich social and cultural calendar with both arts and horticultural activities. There’s a local tennis club, thriving cricket, rugby and football clubs and the area is well known for its golf courses. With plenty of options for exciting days with the family or relaxing nights on the town individuals really are spoilt for choice.

With Beaconsfield being renowned for excellent state and private schools, education is well served. Butlers Court is the closest to home and Davenies Prep School is particularly highly regarded.

Travel, for both work and leisure, is especially well catered for at Ellington Gate. Junction 2 or the M40 is easily accessible via the A40, opening up the entire motorway network and providing access via the M25 to both London to the south and Birmingham to the north. For commuting and day trips, Beaconsfield Station offers fast and frequent service into London Marylebone with a journey time of approximately 30 minutes.
