Three storeys are better than two for Becksmead buyers

Three storey townhouses, popular due to their stunning design and abundance of space, are being snapped up at Becksmead, George Wimpey North Yorkshire's popular Stillington development. While historically a townhouse was an exclusive residence in the city reserved for nobility and gentry, the clever design of the houses has seen townhouse living becoming more widespread, with buyers realising that they can adapt the space to suit their lifestyle.

Maria Gatehouse, regional sales manager for Becksmead, said: "The Arlington townhouses we have at Becksmead have attracted both young professionals and families who appreciate the extra space and convenience of living over three floors. They are also available at a fantastic price - starting from just £164,950.

"I'm certain that this trend is set to continue, particularly as buyers are looking more and more for properties that can adapt with them over time, removing the need to move so often."

The ground floor of the Arlington townhouse features a kitchen with breakfast area and French doors that open out onto a private rear garden. On the first floor there is a large living room, one bedroom and a family bathroom. The second floor consists of three bedrooms, including en-suite to the spacious master bedroom.

Becksmead is situated on Morrison Street, Stillington, and is ideal for buyers looking for the perfect family home.

The development consists of just 53 properties including four bedroom, three storey townhouses and four bedroom detached homes.

Situated on the edge of Stockton, Stillington has its own range of local amenities and is also near the traditional villages of Norton and Yarm which have a selection of exclusive boutiques.

Stockton and Middlesbrough are also only a short drive away, providing a wealth of shopping and leisure facilities.

Close to the development is the popular Wynyard Woodland Park which offers a haven for a relaxing walk. Major attractions are available for horseracing fans and keen golfers in particular, with the Sedgefield Racecourse and Knotty Hill Golf centre located nearby.

Becksmead is also perfectly placed for transport, providing commuters easy access to the A19, A66, A167 and A689.

For more information about the development, call into the sales information centre on Morrison Street, open seven days a week, between 10am and 5.30pm.
