Flying start for housebuilder in Ailsworth

Home buyers looking for a slice of countryside life have been showing their interest at an award winning home builder’s new development near Peterborough.

The Sycamores at Ailsworth had a packed out launch, with over 120 potential buyers coming to have a look around during the opening weekend.

The jewel in the crown of the Redrow Homes’ venture is its spectacular surroundings – three sides of the development have views over beautiful open countryside.

Catherine Cloke, Redrow’s area sales manager, says: “We had a fantastic launch at The Sycamores in Ailsworth – it was great to see so many people turning out. We have sold five homes within the opening three weeks and there is plenty more interest, which points to this being a very successful venture.”

“The launch event was a chance to see our brand new fully furnished show home, check out the enviable specification that’s included with every new Redrow home, find out more about the properties available and discover the help we can offer to help get people moving through services such as Mastermove.”

The Sycamores at Ailsworth will feature a variety of three, four and five-bedroom homes, ranging from terraced properties, to semi-detached and detached homes and, with its great road links, will be popular with busy commuters and young professionals alike.

The fantastic location surrounded by countryside yet so close to the thriving centre of Peterborough, coupled with the stylish, spacious design of the properties also make them perfect for families.

One of the largest homes currently on release is the four-bedroom, detached Portswood, with attached single garage. This spacious home boasts an extensive ground floor layout, with a lounge, family room, kitchen, dining room, utility, cloakroom, study and storage area.

Upstairs, there is a fabulous master bedroom with en-suite shower room, while bedrooms two and three have access to their very own ‘Jack and Jill’ style en-suite shower room, meaning the occupant of the fourth bedroom can virtually enjoy the main bathroom with separate shower, to themselves.

The Portwood, the perfect family residence, is priced at £455,000.

Also currently on release are the four-bedroom Kemble, Fulbrook, Glandford and Milthorpe style homes. Prices begin at £264,950.

Taking centre stage at the launch was the fully furnished four-bedroom Milthorpe show home, which is available to help buyers to picture life at The Sycamores and to see the quality they can expect from Redrow.

Rich gold, ochre, dusky aubergine and bold pewter colours are used to create an autumnal feel, with modern furniture, artwork and light fittings throughout, to create a feeling of homely, classic chic.

The Sycamores is around 15 minutes away from Peterborough, which boasts many shops and restaurants, wildlife reserves, cinemas and a museum. The historical city also has its own cathedral – reported to be one of the top ten most photographed landmarks in the UK.

Commuters will be pleased with the development’s great road links with good access to the A1(M) and A47, making it an ideal retreat for commuters. Peterborough train station offers a regular service to London, making the journey to King’s Cross within an hour. There are also train times of one hour to Leicester and around one hour 15 minutes to Nottingham.

For your chance to view the stunning show home at The Sycamores visit the development on Station Road, Ailsworth, 12pm – 5.30pm Monday, Thursday and Friday and 10am – 5.30pm Saturday and Sunday.
