A traditional style of modern living from just £79,995 Home-buyers can enjoy a blend of beautiful design and contemporary comfort at The Place, George Wimpey's sought-after development of just 24 homes within Groby village conservation area in Leicestershire.

Boasting bespoke red brick external architecture which gives the impression of an attractive, double-fronted period home, ‘Stoughton House' comprises a selection of spacious apartments priced from just £79,995.

The popular one-bedroom design, for example, features an internal hallway leading to a living/dining room with open-plan galley kitchen, a light and airy double bedroom and a shower room.

Like all new homes at The Place, this stylish design enjoys a high standard specification including central heating, double glazing and a fully fitted kitchen with built-in oven, hob and hood.

Customers can also choose from two-bedroom apartments within ‘Stoughton House' and ‘Dunton Cottage', the three-bedroom ‘Langton Mews' townhouse starting at £179,995, the four-bedroom ‘Hallaton Cottage' townhouse from £199,995, and the detached three-storey four-bedroom ‘Melbourne House' from £269,995.

Lynne Hartshorn, Regional Sales and Marketing Director, says: "Our apartments are an ideal choice for first-time buyers or those looking to downsize to an attractive property in an upmarket location, while the four-bedroom properties we have available are extremely popular with families.

"The Place lies within the heart of Groby's conservation area, and as such we have drawn on the architectural heritage and historical context of the area in designing our new homes."

By using George Wimpey's Easymover programme, first-time buyers can benefit from a range of special incentives on selected properties at The Place, including their deposit and legal fees paid, while those with a property to sell can reserve their new home while the leading developer find a buyer for their current house or flat, paying the estate agency fees and guaranteeing 100% of the market value.

Customers can also take advantage of the leading housebuilder'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.

The Place, surrounded by picturesque countryside, benefits from a good position within the well-served village, yet is also less than five miles from the shops and attractions of Leicester.

Groby has two small supermarkets, a butcher's, a hardware store, a newsagent, a Post Office, a pharmacy, and a delicatessen. Other amenities include a library, a community centre, a village hall, two take-away food outlets, a pub and two hairdressers.

Further information is available by visiting the Sales Centre, located off Newtown Linford Lane, Groby, and open Thursday to Monday from 10.30am to 5.30pm, or online at Georgewimpey.co.uk.
