Space for happy families at Vista

When searching for their dream home many homebuyers will be looking at the shell of the house, wondering what furniture they have to complement it.

One lucky couple from Ipswich didn’t have to worry about whether their beds would fit or their tastes would match when moving in together because they purchased one of the stunning show homes at Crest Nicholson’s Vista development, which included all of the trimmings.

When Tracy (46) a patient services secretary at the nearby St Elizabeth’s Hospice in Ipswich, and Chris Connolly (27), a Senior Employee Relations Advisor at Customer Service Direct, got a call from the Sales Advisor at Vista mentioning that one of the show homes, a four bedroom townhouse was on offer, they decided to take a look despite it being bigger than they were originally looking for. On first sight of the property the couple instantly fell in love with it. The three storeys that the townhouse offers gives the couple as well as Tracy’s 15 year old daughter Eleanor the space they want, including an entire floor each.

Tracy comments: “We were originally looking at three bedroom homes as that is all the space that we really need, but when we saw the show home at Vista, I knew this was the perfect house for us. It really is my perfect home, I have always wanted to live in a three story townhouse and never thought I would be able to.”

Tracy continues: “The three floors means Eleanor can have her own space including a bathroom, which is great for a teenage girl. When we were told we could buy it with all the fixtures I never thought that included the furniture right down to the wine glasses on the table and towels in the bathroom! It was lovely as it gave Chris and I a brand new start with none of our junk from before.”

Vista is a striking collection of one and two bedroom apartments and two, three and four bedroom homes. Set off Woodbridge Road it is close to Ipswich’s vibrant town centre. All homes are finished to the high standard associated with Crest Nicholson and properties are fitted with modern kitchens, complete with a range of integrated appliances including a stainless steel Bosch oven, hob and extractor hood along with an integrated fridge/freezer and washer/dryer. Bathrooms and en suites incorporate smart white sanitaryware finished with contemporary chrome accessories.

Annette Cole, Sales and Marketing Director for Crest Nicholson (Eastern) Ltd comments: “The houses on offer at Vista are ideal for families as Tracy and her family have found. The properties give teenagers and young children the space to play and develop, and it also means that the parents can enjoy their own space free of clutter, making family life much less stressful. Although Tracy and Chris were lucky enough to benefit from buying a show home complete with all fixtures and fittings, all the homes at Vista come with fitted kitchens and the apartments currently on offer also include all light fittings and flooring.”

Chris and Tracy were able to make their move to Vista even simpler with Crest Nicholson’s Part Exchange scheme. Part Exchange is simple and the benefits are clear. Firstly, potential purchasers identify the Crest Nicholson property they wish to buy, and then the company will arrange for three independent local estate agents to value their existing property. Crest Nicholson will make an offer within 7 days and once the offer is accepted, customers can reserve their brand new home, with the added benefits of the estate agents fees and HIP’s being covered.

Vista is just a 15 minute walk from Ipswich town centre, which offers a great selection of shops, cafes, restaurants and bars to cater for every taste. As well as a great selection of schools, including both independent and state run schools, within close proximity to the development. Just under two miles from the train station, the scheme also enjoys excellent transport links, with London Liverpool Street just over an hour away.

Prices at Vista start from £107,000 for a one bedroom apartment to £192,500 for a three bedroom townhouse. For more information visit crestnicholson.com.
