New homes offer new opportunities for stylish living in Costessey

House-hunters holding out for the right property in favourable market conditions have the perfect opportunity to secure a great-value home at the popular Queen’s Hills development in Costessey, near Norwich.

Laing Homes is offering a choice of new three and four-bedroom houses, including the fabulous four-bedroom ‘Salisbury’, which delivers essential family living space within the attractive layout of a contemporary three-storey townhouse.

At the heart of this exceptional property lies a spacious living room which opens through French doors to the rear private garden, with the ground floor also boasting a combined kitchen/breakfast area and a guest cloakroom off the entrance hallway.

Upstairs, the first floor landing leads to a sizeable double bedroom, a family bathroom and a further bedroom which could also be used as a home study, while the top floor features a magnificent master bedroom with en-suite facilities, as well a good-sized fourth bedroom.

This outstanding family-size home benefits from a single garage and is available from the incredible-value price of just £168,995.

Alternatively, property-seekers can opt for the delightful three-bedroom ‘Hadleigh’, which is priced from just £157,995.

This three-storey townhouse design enjoys a layout similar to the ‘Salisbury’ on the ground and first floors, with the master bedroom and en-suite bathroom occupying the entire top storey of the property.

Like all new homes at Queen’s Hills, both the ‘Salisbury’ and the ‘Hadleigh’ are completed to a high standard specification, including double glazing, central heating and fitted kitchen with integrated oven, hob and hood.

Tania Curtis, Sales Manager for Taylor Wimpey East Anglia, says: “These superb properties are ideal for growing families and the current market climate means now is the perfect time to invest in a brand new home.”

“According to the Land Registry, house prices experienced their biggest rise for five years in July, increasing by 1.7%. But prices were still 11.7% lower in July 2009 than they were in July 2008.

“Plus, unlike sellers on the second-hand homes market, we provide a range of incentives to help first-time buyers, investors and existing homeowners – all they need to do to find their home for an affordable price is to come along and see us at Queen’s Hills.”

The development is part of the wider Queen’s Hills Country Park, an exciting new community on the outskirts of the village of Costessey.

This growing neighbourhood combines all the advantages of living in an established village with the benefits of a range of brand new facilities, including local shopping, a community centre and a primary school.

Costessey itself is just six miles from Norwich, putting top-quality shopping, sports and cultural amenities all within easy reach.

And with the Norfolk Broads and miles of unspoilt coastline also close by, the new homes are perfectly placed for exploring and enjoying one of Britain’s most attractive counties.

For commuters, central Norwich is just a 15-minute drive from the development, where the mainline railway station can be found.

To find out more, visit Queen’s Hills, located off Alex Moorhouse Way, Costessey, Norwich, NR5 0JT and open Tuesday to Sunday from 10am to 5pm and Monday from 1pm to 5pm.
