An Englishman’s home is his castle with Taylor Wimpey

Families enjoyed a brilliant afternoon’s entertainment at Taylor Wimpey’s East Moor Village development in Newcastle Great Park when the opening of a new showhome was celebrated with a medieval themed event.

Visitors to East Moor Village, which features a selection of three, four and five bedroom homes, were treated to Jesters and Knights of the Round Table when the new Ripley showhome was unveiled.

Katie Fairley, sales executive at East Moor Village said: “The medieval event was lots of fun and we knew that we were going to get a great deal of interest in the new show home from families so we wanted to make sure that children were entertained while their parents were busy looking around. They particularly loved the medieval castle-themed cut and colour competition.”

Parents didn’t miss out either with the opportunity to win a weekend away at the luxuriously prestige Lumley Castle in County Durham to give them a real taste of luxury living.

Katie added: “The Ripley show home has been beautifully designed by a professional team of interior designers and presents an ideal opportunity for homeseekers to experience the space available to them first hand. Visitors couldn’t be more complimentory about the show home, the major factor being the value for money and the space you get in the Ripley.”

The new show home – The Ripley – is a four bedroom detached home features a spacious lounge and separate dining room along with a contemporary kitchen, utility room and the study on the ground floor, in addition to a downstairs cloakroom.

Upstairs is home to the family bathroom, along with four bedrooms. The master bedroom also benefits from an en-suite shower room. As well as plenty of indoor storage space The Ripley also has a detached single garage, adding to its appeal as an ideal family home.

Katie continued: “The Ripley is just one of five different designs of four bedroom detached homes at the development, all with garages and generous gardens. It has been styled in sumptuous creams and neutrals with furniture and furnishings to compliment the quality of the homes and inspire new home buyers; it’s definitely worth a visit.”

As well as four bedroom family homes, East Moor Village also offers buyers a selection of stylish three and five bedroom detached homes. The development features nine different house designs starting from £219,995, each of which takes its name from an English castle and boasts an interior layout worthy of its majestic name. Prices for a Ripley home starts from £249,995.
