Living the dream at Riverdale Ings in Cononley

Andrew and Andrea Duffey had given up hope on moving from Keighley to a bigger home in the country after struggling to sell their existing home for more than a year. That was until they stumbled upon an advert for Antler Homes’ Riverdale Ings development in Cononley and decided to go and visit the Show Home.

“We’d actually taken our house off the market and thought we’d have to stay put,” explains Andrew. “But we visited Riverdale Ings and fell in love with our new house straight away. We were specifically looking for a house in the country and our new home has a balcony looking on to the River Aire and the valleys beyond, so it was just perfect.”

It wasn’t just the views and the location that was appealing. The specification of the houses and the quality of finish was an attraction too. The couple purchased a four bedroom townhouse with direct views over the River Aire. They hadn’t considered the prospect of moving to a three storey home before, but after viewing one at Riverdale Ings they saw the benefits it offered.

“Three storey living really appealed to us,” adds Andrew. “Having the main living space on the first floor means we will be able to appreciate the river and the rolling countryside from the comfort of our living room. We also get much better elevated views of the valley from the balcony than we would from the ground floor.”

After having a bad experience with trying to sell in the past, the couple were more than happy to use Antler Homes’ Part Exchange scheme which meant no hassle, no chains, no estate agent fees and no Home Information Pack to pay for. The friendly sales executives were always on hand to talk them through every step of the process

“First impressions count, and Antler Homes won us over as they were so much more professional and keen than other housebuilders,” concludes Andrew. “The sales executives had such a good mannerism and were always more than happy to help – we can’t wait to move in to our new home and would recommend Antler Homes to anyone looking for a smooth move.”
