New homes boast traditional values in Rugby

New homes boast traditional values in Rugby In a bid to encourage traditional community values at its Oaklands development in Rugby, David Wilson East Midlands has incorporated a central village green area within the landscaping of this popular new homes scheme.

Situated on Longstork Road, Oaklands is part of the consortium of Coton Park and is one of David Wilson’s largest developments. This emerging residential area is already showing signs of camaraderie through the formation of a residents association, but in a bid to further enhance the community feel, the planners at David Wilson have featured a central village green area.

Philip Lacey, Sales Director for David Wilson says “Village greens are a traditional feature found within old rural villages and they help to create and maintain a true community feel by providing a meeting place for locals to socialise.

“We are trying to recreate this old fashioned ethos at our Oaklands development and the village green is proving a real draw for potential customers who are attracted by the idea of living somewhere that is promoting old community values.

“The village green not only looks attractive but we are finding increasing numbers of residents are taking advantage of it to sit and relax and even get to know their neighbours, which is exactly what it was intended for.”

Oaklands is a stunning development comprising a wide selection of house types from the extensive David Wilson portfolio. From one- bedroom apartments ideal for first time buyers to three-, four- and five- bedroom family homes, the development provides housing solutions for a wide range of househunters.

Purchasers can also take advantage of the great range of deals David Wilson is currently offering including shared equity, part exchange as well as the Government’s HomeBuy Direct scheme.

Prices at the development start from £85,995 for a one- bedroom apartment.
