Coast your way to a brand new home in East Lothian

Research from award winning developer Redrow Homes confirms a show home is the ultimate marketing tool for customers choosing a brand new property. So with a fully furnished show home now available to view at The Potteries in Prestonpans, buying a new home has never been so easy.

Diana Newton, sales director for Redrow Homes (Scotland), says: "We conducted some research among visitors to our website and found that more than half of home hunters still consider a show home to be better than things like models, computer generated images and virtual fly-throughs. It seems that for some people you just can't beat the real thing.

"With that in mind we're delighted to have this new show home available to help would-be purchasers really visualise what life could be like in one of our homes."

The three-bedroom, three-storey Lambourne show home has been carefully styled in a ‘contemporary beach-combers' theme in blues, whites and creams to reflect its coastal location.

As with all the properties at The Potteries, it features an en-suite to the master bedroom and a fully-fitted kitchen complete with stainless steel oven, hob and extractor fan.

Diana added: "The show home highlights the versatility of three-storey living and the value for money it provides. By going upwards instead of outwards, we have made maximum use of the land on which the Lambournes are built, helping to make sure customers get more home for their money.

"It's a design that can appeal to lots of different people, thanks to its versatility. There's plenty of space for families, while for those with no children living at home, the spare rooms can be used for visiting family and friends or as a home office, gym or hobbies room. Three-storey living is also a great option for friends sharing a mortgage to get on the property ladder as it gives them plenty of space and privacy."

Situated in the historic East Lothian town of Prestonpans, The Potteries is ideally located near the coast, yet within easy reach of the cultural city of Edinburgh, making it perfect for commuters looking for a better quality of life.

Prestonpans itself offers a range of local amenities and has excellent road connections. The local railway station, offering regular services to Edinburgh Waverley, is less than half a mile away from The Potteries.

There are also fabulous golf courses nearby and the famous Musselburgh Race Course is under a mile away.

Available properties include two-bedroom apartments priced from £137,500, three-bedroom houses priced from £172,995, a three-bedroom Lambourne, similar to the new show home, from £194,000 and four-bedroom detached homes from £242,995.
