New home curries favour with chef

Chef James Blackwell is relishing life in his brand new home at Wymeswold –he’s picked a George Wimpey property which lets him cook up a feast in two great kitchens! The 30-year-old gourmet works at the Hammer and Pincers, a local village pub which is renowned across Leicestershire for its mouth-watering menu.

But when he’s not serving up delicious treats and sweets for guests he’s back home at Fox Hollies, the leading house builder’s exciting new development just around the corner, enjoying time in the sumptuous kitchen of his three-bedroom ‘Java’ property.

“I chose the ‘Java’ design at Fox Hollies for two reasons,” explains James, who has now settled in Wymeswold after eight years travelling around the world.

“Firstly, because it features a fantastic combined kitchen and dining room – a great space for entertaining which has been very nicely laid out.

“But it’s also in such a lovely location. Wymeswold is an attractive village and working at the local pub means that I now have a two minute trip to work.”

For James, who used to travel back and forth to his former home in Loughborough several times a day to work the mealtime shifts at the Hammer and Pincers, the convenience is ideal.

“But it’s also a great location for travelling to nearby towns,” he adds.

“Loughborough, Leicester and Nottingham are each only 20 minutes away.”

James has ensured his kitchen is fully kitted out for all his culinary needs by taking advantage of the optional extras which George Wimpey East Midlands offers all its customers.

Not only did he receive a fitted kitchen with built-in oven, hob and hood as standard, he added a dishwasher and fridge-freezer as well as having carpets and floorings laid throughout his new home by the leading house builder before he moved in.

George Wimpey is currently offering customers a superb range of two, three and four-bedroom properties from £164,995, and a sumptuous ‘Ludlow’ show home is now open for viewing, beautifully decorated and superbly styled throughout by George Wimpey’s team of professional interior designers.

George Wimpey’s easymover programme provides a range of special incentives on selected properties for first-time buyers, while customers with a house to sell can reserve their new home and then sit back and relax while the house builder finds a buyer for their current property - guaranteeing 100% of the market value – and pays the estate agents’ fees.

Homebuyers can also take advantage of George Wimpey’s House 2 Home bespoke moving package comprising free UK removal regardless of distance or size of property, full packing and unpacking service and insurance cover.

Fox Hollies is conveniently located within easy walking distance of all Wymeswold village facilities comprising a newsagent and Post Office, a general store, a butcher, a pharmacy, three public houses, and a community hall.

Fox Hollies is perfectly located for commuters, with the A46 just a few minutes’ drive from the development, providing easy access to the cosmopolitan cities of Leicester and Nottingham, and both the M1 and A1 less than 20 miles away.

The towns of Melton Mowbray and Loughborough are also nearby, with Loughborough rail station operating regular direct services to London.

The Sales Centre is located in Wysall Lane, Wymeswold and open daily, 10.30am until 5.30pm.
