Homes with a modern twist at Copperfields

The attractive Georgian and Victorian architecture of market towns like Melton Mowbray has long been popular with house hunters seeking a home with historic charm. However, such properties can command a hefty premium as well as heavy maintenance responsibilities and many people’s purse strings just won’t stretch.

But a collection of townhouses has just been released at Copperfields, Jelson Homes’ development in Melton Mowbray, which could provide the perfect compromise.

While carefully designed to reflect local architecture with traditional features such as stone porches and sash-style windows with stone lintels and cills, the 3 bedroom townhouses at Copperfields offer bags of space and the flexibility demanded by 21st Century living. And to mark the launch of ‘The Victoria’ design, a new show home has been opened so that visitors can come and experience Jelson-style townhouse living for themselves.

Inside the show home spacious and light-filled interiors offer plenty of space to relax and entertain. A generous open-plan lounge and dining room which spans the width of the house and features walk-in bay French doors creates a lovely family area with access to the garden. Meanwhile, a separate kitchen and cloakroom/WC complete the downstairs accommodation.

Upstairs the layout of the bedrooms has been equally well thought out. Rather than squeezing the 3 bedrooms onto one floor, they’re arranged over two storeys. On the first floor there are two good-sized bedrooms and the family bathroom, while the en-suite master bedroom with its own dressing room has the top floor all to itself. Not only does this create more space but it also allows for more privacy and flexibility.

And if the Victoria design doesn’t suit your needs, there’s also a selection of 2, 3, 4 and 6 bedroom homes to choose from which benefit from the convenient location off the Leicester Road. Homeowners will find themselves well placed to take advantage of Melton Mowbray’s bustling town centre, which is within walking distance, and excellent transport links.

Prices at Copperfields start at £99,950 for a 2 bed apartment while prices for the 3 bedroom Victoria townhouse start at £174,950.
