Eager buyers snap up homes at Highfields and Q in Derby

Smart house-hunters have been moving quickly to secure homes at two hugely successful Taylor Wimpey developments in Derby – where all but a handful of brand new properties have now been snapped up.

As the property market continues to show clear signs of a recovery, savvy buyers are recognising that now is the perfect time to invest in the highly desirable range of great-value homes at the city’s Highfields and Q developments.

Now property-seekers hoping to become part of either of these exciting developments will have to be just as quick off the mark to reserve the few stylish homes that remain.

Kelly French, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “There’s been a huge amount of interest in homes at both our Highfields and our Q developments, so we don’t expect those that remain on sale to be available for long.

“I would urge movers hoping to become part of these vibrant and exciting developments to get in touch with us today – before it’s too late!”

One of the most in-demand home designs available at Q, in the Chester Green conservation area of Derby, is the stunning four-bedroom ‘Claret’ contemporary townhouse, which is now available for just £189,995 – incredible value in such a popular location.

This beautiful, contemporary property features a spacious living/dining room with French doors leading to the private rear garden, with a modern kitchen/breakfast area and guest cloakroom completing the ground floor accommodation.

Upstairs, three generously-proportioned bedrooms, including a magnificent master bedroom with en-suite facilities, are laid out over two floors, along with a main bathroom and a fourth bedroom, which could also be used as a home study.

The stunning ‘Claret’ also benefits from a single garage or parking space.

At Highfields, which is located between two picturesque parks in the north-west corner of the city, buyers can choose from two attractive home designs – the three-bedroom ‘Harvington’ townhouse from just £178,995 and the four-bedroom ‘Barton’ from only £216,995.

Featuring an integrated garage for added convenience, the ‘Barton’ boasts a bedroom/study, a shower room, a utility room and plenty of storage space on the ground floor, with a good-sized open-plan reception room/formal dining area as well as a roomy kitchen/diner upstairs.

The top floor comprises a light and airy master bedroom with en-suite facilities along with two further bedrooms and a family bathroom.

The charming ‘Harvington’, meanwhile, enjoys an exceptionally spacious lounge/diner and kitchen on its ground floor, two large bedrooms and a main bathroom upstairs, and a master bedroom with en-suite and built-in wardrobe occupying the entire top storey of the property.

All new homes at the two developments are finished to a high-standard specification, including double glazing, central heating and fully fitted kitchen with integrated oven, hob and hood.

Both Highfields and Q are ideally located within easy reach of Derby’s bustling city centre, yet only a short distance from green parkland and open countryside.

Over the next few years, Derby will undergo a visionary transformation, including a £440 million investment in improving the retail heart of the city and its public open spaces, and exciting developments are in the pipeline for the commercial, cultural, leisure and tourist sectors throughout the area.

The city already boasts extensive shopping opportunities in addition to many and varied recreational facilities, including cinemas, theatres, museums, art galleries, restaurants catering for every taste and trendy bars.

Commuters will appreciate that both developments are just a short drive from the A52 and A38 and within easy reach of the M1 north and south.

To find out more about the homes available at Highfields, part of Taylor Wimpey’s Bryant Homes brand, visit the Marketing Suite off Broadway, Derby, and open Thursday to Monday from 10.30am to 5.30pm.
