Village life lures buyers to Eastington

Village life is the ideal for many house hunters and a real sense of community can make the difference between finding your ideal location and rural isolation.
At Crest Nicholson’s Spring Hill development in Eastington, it was precisely this which was the determining factor for resident Joan Turner who moved to Eastington to be closer to her family in Gloucestershire.
Joan said: “The Spring Hill development at Eastington really appealed to me due to sense of community the area has. There’s a good variety of people here – young and old – and lots going on that I can get involved with.
“There isn’t much I don’t know about Gloucestershire and so it didn’t take me too long to make up my mind. I used to live in the Cotswolds years ago and many of my family still live in the area and so I know it well. Eastington was an ideal choice as it offers all the local amenities I need as well as a good public transport to Stroud – which is crucial as I don’t drive.”
Crest Nicholson homes were also a trusted choice for Joan as, as a previous buyer, she knew that she would receive a top-quality home and personal assistance from the all the staff.
Joan continued: “I had previously bought a Crest Nicholson home in Lichfield, which I liked very much and suited all my needs. I’m still in contact with the site team there and so it was an obvious choice to look at what Crest Nicholson in the South West could offer.”
Joan has recently moved into a three-bedroom Kensington-style home which she has found to be ideal in accommodating visiting friends and family. She explained: “I have room for lots of visitors to stay now and because my family are so close they often drop by. There’s room for my grandchildren to come and for my great-grandchildren to play inside or in the garden.
“One of the clinching points for me was the amount of light this home offered. Light comes in from every angle and it feels quite spacious. I wanted a smaller home from my previous, but this certainly doesn’t feel like a small house – it is perfect for my needs.”
Homes at Eastington start from £199,950 for a three bedroom Woodchester townhouse, and range to £375,000 for a four bedroom Highgrove which offers the added bonus of a family room as well as two en-suite bathrooms and utility room.
