Sales soar at Persimmon Court

Persimmon Court in Chipping Norton looks to be the leading house builder’s success story of 2007 with five properties selling in the first few weeks of the New Year – and it’s not difficult to see why.

An intimate development of just 13 three bedroom mews properties situated around a private courtyard, the homes are all built using natural stone to reflect the historic market town of Chipping Norton and create a picturesque street scene.

Persimmon Court is not only surrounded by rolling hills and charming limestone cottages, but is situated in the shadow of the Rollright Stones and in the centre of an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Alison Reading, sales director for Persimmon Homes South Midlands, comments: “As the adage goes, house hunters are looking for one thing above all else: location, location, location. This development ensures the wow factor is in full supply every time you look out of your window or step out of a front door.

“In addition to buying a brand new home, purchasers at Persimmon Court are buying quality of life. However, with just eight properties remaining, interested parties should act quickly to minimise missing out on this unique opportunity.”

In celebration of the development’s recent success, five per cent deposit paid or part exchange is currently being offered for a limited period only on its house of the month, the Langton.

Persimmon has been welcomed by existing residents after integrating itself into the local community by sponsoring a landscaping project which smartened up the road verges of the town. Alison Reading continues: “At Persimmon, we feel it is important to contribute to the neighbourhoods in which we build. We saw an opportunity to improve the kerb appeal of the surroundings, and seized it, to the delight of local inhabitants.”

Persimmon Court is ideally located for both work and play, providing easy access to the beautiful North Oxfordshire Cotswolds and magnificent landmarks such as Blenheim Palace and Broughton Castle. Located within easy reach of the historical cities of Oxford and Stratford upon Avon, the development is a few minutes away from a wide variety of stores and restaurants, and also enjoys a range of local amenities including shops, over 20 pubs and a theatre.

For those commuters looking to retire to a rural retreat after the daily grind, Persimmon Court should fit the brief perfectly. The A44 offers a direct route to Oxford while the nearby M40 makes the 81 mile journey to London as easy as possible. Kingham railways station is just a five minute drive and has regular links to Oxford, taking you door-to-door in under half an hour and to London in an hour and a half.

A spectacular show home at Persimmon Court has recently opened to the public. The three bedroom, three storey townhouse showcases the new Lydford house design and has been dressed in a delightful palette of chocolate and clotted creams with accents of powder blues and gentle greens.

“The show home at Persimmon Court provides a wonderful example of the quality and style of properties we are creating here,” concludes Alison Reading. “The property exudes a genuine welcoming, country feel of somewhere you immediately feel you would enjoy coming home to and we believe purchasers will simply love living here.”

All 13 properties at Persimmon Court comprise a single garage. Prices currently start from £249,995 with occupations expected for March 2007.
