Wake up to the whole package at Heatley Mere

Moving house can be a stressful process at the best of times, so buying a home whilst planning the arrival of their baby was a brave move for James and Gail Wake.

Thanks to the ease of Countryside Properties' Part Exchange scheme, the couple were able to move into their dream home at Heatley Mere in Lymm just days after the birth of their new baby girl.

After living in Irlam for five years, James (31) and Gail (31) felt their three bedroom semi-detached house just wasn't big enough for their expanding family. Craving more space and looking for a picturesque location with a good selection of schools for their two daughters, Rosemary (3) and new born baby Katherine, the couple found a brand new four bedroom semi-detached home at Countryside Properties' Heatley Mere that gave them the whole package.

With all the charms of historic Cheshire and the convenience of a modern lifestyle, living in Lymm has long been a dream of the couple's but was one they thought they would never be able to afford. On their way to view a different property, James and Gail drove past the development and decided to have a quick look and before they knew it they'd fallen in love with their perfect home and moved in.

James said: "What with the timing of the baby, we knew buying a house would be difficult but we found our home at Heatley Mere and it was so easy. At the time it seemed too good to be true. Thanks to Countryside Properties we now have everything we've ever wanted, a brand new home in our dream location."

Buying at Countryside Properties' award winning Heatley Mere, the Wakes now have a spacious and contemporary family home alongside the Heatley Flash Lake and Trans-Pennine walking trail.

Gail Wake, a secondary school teacher, said: "We couldn't believe how easy part exchange was. I'd had baby Katherine and the next minute we were picking up the keys to our brand new home. Gyllian DenHeyer, Countryside Properties' sales consultant at Heatley Mere was fantastic. She made it so straightforward for us, from recommending a solicitor, to organising a licence to let us stay in our old house two weeks longer than planned while we were waiting for baby Katherine; I'd definitely recommend Countryside Properties to anyone."

Based on an independent valuation of your home, Countryside Properties will make an offer that reflects 100% of what it is worth, removing any threat of your buyer changing their mind and freeing you to buy your new home. As long as the value of your chosen home exceeds that of your existing property by a minimum of 30%, you should be eligible for part exchange.

James Wake said: "Not only was part exchange cost effective, it was also stress free, meaning we could focus on the baby coming, and because there were no estate agents fees we had that extra bit of cash to help us move home. I can't believe it was all completed in less than a month."

Only two homes remain at Heatley Mere! Priced at £319,950, interested parties are urged to act quickly to snap up these four-bedroom semi-detached properties and become part of the leafy community of Heatley Mere in Lymm. For more information log on to Heatleymere.com.
