Maintenance free Miller Homes

Robert and Geok Duckworth had lived in their family home in Hereford for more than 40 years. Having both retired, the couple decided it was time to move homes in order to be closer to their family. After viewing many properties the couple fell upon Miller Homes ‘The Nightingales’ near Old Town Swindon and were sold.

Mr and Mrs Duckworth were attracted to ‘The Nightingales’ located in the Priory Vale consortium in Swindon. The modern two, three and four bedroom homes and apartments are ideal to suit all lifestyle requirements from growing families to busy professionals. ‘The Nightingales’ is a newly built development and the homes benefit from being trouble-free from repairs.

Mr Duckworth said, “My wife wanted to move into a new home without the worries of alterations, repairs and maintenance. She feels I'm now getting a little too old to start fixing and building things, she has her own idea of a good home and who am I to argue with that!” Mr Duckworth went on to say “We wanted a home which was situated in a good location at a fair price. We liked ‘The Nightingales’ because the area felt comfortable and the Miller Homes sales office staff treated us efficiently and with kindness”.

The development offers many opportunities for great walks and cycling opportunities as it is close to a protected wildflower meadow and has a wealth of wildlife with many leafy lanes leading to popular shops as it is bordered on one side by mature trees and on the other by a proposed primary school and sports field.

These properties are flooded with natural light and french doors leading outside from the dining/family room. Also, some of these apartments can offer triple aspect panoramic views giving them a unique appeal. All residents have either allocated parking or garage facilities. Prices range between £151,950 - £234,950.

Ann Crick, Sales and Marketing Director of Miller Homes Southern comments, “’The Nightingales’ is a beautiful development that maximises its potential with great views, good positioning and first class building. We are delighted that Mr and Mrs Duckworth are satisfied with their home and our service. We encourage all residents to make use of our full range of services to ensure that their move goes smoothly.”

The location of the Nightingales is excellent for commuters due to its proximity to the M4 giving links to London, Birmingham and Bristol. London is only an hour away by train from Swindon’s station and two and a half hours away from the sunny beaches of Bournemouth.
