Retail therapy at Persimmon’s Priory Gate

With Christmas cards and decorations already on the shelves in shops across the region, it’s hard to escape the fact that the festive season is upon us and we’ll soon be exercising our credit cards frantically buying gifts for friends and family. If you’re aspiring to move home but think that now might not be the best time to splash out on a new house, Persimmon Homes has a few words of comfort.

Sue Hull, sales director for Persimmon Homes East Midlands says: “When it gets to this time of year, many people start to think that they’ve missed the boat in terms of getting into a new home in time for Christmas or that they can’t really afford it at this time of year, but that doesn’t need to be the case. At Persimmon Homes, we have a number of properties that will be ready for those wanting to move in before Christmas at our ever popular Bourne development.”

Priory Gate is an exclusive development hosting just 34 new homes in a range of three and four bedroom family homes, with prices starting from £175,995 for a three bedroom semi-detached design.

The four bedroom Harlech home has proved to be one of Persimmon’s most admired housetype’s, due to its layout, function and price and is one of the homes available for a Christmas move. With accommodation over three floors, it’s the perfect modern home with a kitchen and breakfast area, lounge/dining room, four well proportioned bedrooms as well as an en suite to the master bedroom and a family bathroom.

“To make the moving process that much easier, we have launched a few incentives where we will pay the stamp duty, five per cent deposit and legal fees. We are also offering our KeyMove scheme, which has already helped thousands of buyers across the region move quickly into a home they really love,” concludes Sue.

All the homes at Priory Gate have fantastic traditional kerb appeal, with dormer windows, gabled porches and traditional brick detail, all adding to the charm.

Bourne, located in the heart of Lincolnshire, offers the best of all worlds – wonderful countryside teamed with a historic town which dates back to Roman times. The town has a twice weekly market and a good selection of shops, pubs and restaurants.

The more active minded will find the leisure centre and swimming pool, while parents can be reassured that the town has some excellent schools, including Bourne Grammar, one of the most respected educational establishments in the area.

Commuters will find the proximity of the development to major road and rail links a great bonus. Peterborough is approximately 30 minutes away, where you can jump on a train into London and local Bourne services make Grantham and Stamford easily accessible.
