Family swap town for the country at Lawson's Court

Homebuyers Esme Trelease and Michael Flounders are enjoying a more tranquil way of life after swapping the town for the country at Kebbell Homes' Lawson's Court development in High Coniscliffe, near Darlington.

Esme, 25, a research and development officer and Michael, 27, a company director along with their one year old daughter Saffron found Lawson's Court offered them a countryside home still within an accessible location, close to family and friends, in the catchment area for a good local school and within easy commuting distance to Darlington itself.

Esme explained, "Michael and I were originally living in a three-storey home right in the hustle and bustle of town. This was fine when it was just the two of us but after we had Saffron the time was right to choose a more serene way of life, so we made the decision to move to the countryside."

The couple bought a three-bedroom home laid out over two storeys, which the pair agree offers a much more practical layout for life with a child, plus it is easier to maintain.

Esme continued, "It really is such a pleasant contrast living in the countryside compared to the town. We get to go to the park as a family more often and visit the nearby farm shops, both things we would not have contemplated doing before, but now all this is right on our doorstep. Plus there are only a dozen other houses at Lawson's Court, which means we can really get to know our neighbours and be part of a small community."

Linda Tillisch, Northern Sales Manager for Kebbell Homes explained, "Lawson's Court is located in a beautiful country village setting, surrounded by open farmland and is just a short walk away from the pretty River Tees. Yet, for those buyers who also want to be close to a bustling urban environment, the development is only four miles west of Darlington town centre. The homes have all been designed to a contemporary specification and include designer kitchens with stainless steel appliances and granite worktops. They also feature under floor heating to the ground floor rooms and all bathrooms adding to their unrivalled luxury.

"In designing the development we also felt it was important to reflect the local architectural environment and have done so in the external appearance of the homes, which have a classic appeal and match the traditional designs of existing properties in High Coniscliffe. Plus with our fantastic part-exchange scheme currently, literally swapping the town for the country couldn't be easier."

Lawson's Court offers provides traditionally styled family properties with exceptional views of the surrounding countryside, coupled with a superior, modern interior specification. Located around a quiet cul-de-sac, the properties have all been built with larger than average windows in order for residents to be able to fully appreciate the magnificent countryside views. Indeed, attention to detail is always a priority for Kebbell, which has had the foresight to design the living room in some of the properties on the first floor, so that owners are able to make the most of the elevated perspective.

Currently there are six three- and four-bedroom homes available for sale at Lawson's Court, all with secure garage parking and available for sale at prices from £289,950 to £335,000.
