The stunning Ouse available to view at Winkleigh Cross now They say that when one door shuts, another one opens and this is certainly the case at Winkleigh Cross with the arrival of the new show home this weekend (Feb 24th/25th).

With spring just around the corner, Redrow Homes is encouraging house-hunters to see in the new season by attending the official launch of its long-awaited Ouse show home in the pretty mid-Devon village of Winkleigh.

Buyers will be able to experience the reality of living at Winkleigh Cross first-hand when they view the four-bedroom, three-storey family home, which has been designed to fuel the imagination of homebuyers who want ideas for their dream home.

Fashioned by Redrow’s chosen interior design company, the show home has been designed to reflect the idyllic village life of Winkleigh.

As the development is set among green fields, soft traditional colours have been used to bring the feel of the outdoor surroundings inside. The on-going theme throughout the house is a calm slightly oriental feel, with good use of sage green and black against more neutral colours. The use of scented candles and bamboo also reflects the oriental theme and again pursues the idea of a relaxed, serene family home.

Ed White, area sales manager for Redrow Homes (West Country), says: “The interior is just great. The use of the black and green against cream and white backdrops works brilliantly and really exposes the great possibilities of the Ouse house type.

“It has been designed to get buyers’ imaginations soaring, showing that this highly desirable property is ideal for families looking for space and comfort, while also appealing to young professionals who appreciate some space around them.”

Winkleigh Cross features a collection of 51 two, three and four-bedroom homes and has already captured the imagination of local home buyers and is also appealing to people relocating to the area thanks to its idyllic location and some breathtaking scenery.

Although based on the footprint of standard Redrow house types the exterior of the homes at Winkleigh Cross are bespoke to the location with traditional rendered elevations and other features typical to the Devon vernacular.

For those thinking of relocating, the village of Winkleigh has much to offer, including a post office, primary school, leisure centre and small supermarket. The towns of Crediton, Torrington and Okehampton are all less than 15 miles away and boast theatres, traditional markets and leisure centres. Dartmoor National Park is less than 15 miles from Winkleigh and the coast can be reached in just over an hour.

Winkleigh benefits from easy road links to the A386 and the A377 leading to Exeter, Barnstaple and the M5 to Weston-Super-Mare and beyond. Okehampton Railway station runs regular trains to Exeter and links to the main city lines.

So join Redrow for a glass of bubbly and nibbles, this weekend (February 24th/25th) when the fantastic Ouse show home is launched. Pop into the marketing suite, located off Shute Lane in Winkleigh for further information or call 0845 676 0323.
