House-hunting made fun in Gainsborough Searching for a new home to provide a stable and comfortable roof over your family’s head, can be quite a daunting prospect. Parents are easily distracted by their inquisitive children at the most important times, that is why Miller Homes is dedicating a whole weekend, this Bank Holiday, to families in the Gainsborough area, in search of a new home.

“We know this could be the single most important decision of a person’s life, it could mean new beginnings for one family or the start of a new family for others. But whatever the circumstances purchasers need to make sure it’s the right decision for them. With over 75 years of building quality family homes, buyers will have peace of mind in knowing that they are safe in our experienced hands,” said Jan Hanaby regional sales manager for Miller Homes Yorkshire.

There will be lots of things to do during the family focused weekend at Miller’s Brooklands development on Foxby Lane, there is face painting and a drawing competition along with treats for the kids, giving mum and dad time to discuss the multitude of options available to help them buy their new family home.

Families are able to purchase a superb four bedroom home at Brooklands, for just £104,997, using the Government initiative HomeBuy Direct. Buyer’s qualifying for the scheme will have the opportunity to purchase 100 percent of their home by paying 70 percent of the value, with both Miller Homes and the Government equally funding the remaining 30 percent. The 30 percent equity loan will only become repayable after 25 years or when the customer sells their home, whichever comes first

“Only a few properties at our Brooklands development in Gainsborough have been chosen for the scheme meaning that demand is sure to be high.”

Jan continued: “I strongly urge househunters to visit us this weekend, the kids will be kept occupied leaving buyers free to choose the house of their dreams in peace! The HomeBuy Direct initiative also removes the issue of affordability, buyers can get lower mortgage rates and, in some cases, have no deposit to worry about, which means they can certainly get more home for their money.”

The four bedroom Beckett, priced from £149,995 without using the initiative, has a superbly distinctive character with a delightfully framed entrance. The main living spaces have been thoughtfully designed with the ground floor benefiting from the kitchen and dining area. Whilst the lounge, on the first floor, features French windows and an attractive Juliet balcony. The master bedroom on the second floor boasts convenient en-suite facilities.

Brooklands has been excellently planned with a community feel in mind it boasts three public open spaces and a play area. It is situated on Foxby Lane on the outskirts of Gainsborough town centre and enjoys panoramic views over the lush green fields of Lincolnshire.


Why not see what Miller can offer you and visit the showhome and sales centre this family focused Bank Holiday weekend. Where there will be a face painter (12-3pm on both Sunday and Monday) and colouring competitions throughout the weekend with a prize for the best picture being drawn on Monday and the budding artist will be presented with a £10 book voucher.

The sales centre and showhomes are open Thursday – Monday 10.30am to 5.30pm, or log on to Millerhomes.co.uk for further information.
