Grab your new 'quarters' in Colchester

Leading housebuilder Taylor Wimpey has just launched a brand new collection of houses and apartments in Colchester, offering property-seekers a brilliant opportunity to secure the place of their dreams.

Nestling in a beautiful, semi-rural location off Berechurch Hall Road, The Quarters is a new development comprising a choice of two, three and four-bedroom houses priced from only £179,995, plus one and two-bedroom apartments from just £94,995.

Michael O’Leary, Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey East London, says: “The Quarters will appeal to families right through to first-time buyers, and builds on the success of our nearby Solus development, which has now sold out, and Churchill Gate close to Abbey Field Park, where just a handful of apartments remain for sale under our Bryant Homes brand.

“The Quarters is a fresh opportunity for people to invest in a stylish new home at a time when property in Colchester is rising in value, and so we’re urging people to find out more before their dream home is snapped up by someone else!”

Just one of the new homes available to reserve now is the ‘Harvington’, a delightful three-bedroom townhouse that is an ideal first-time buy or perfect for those looking to downsize – and cleverly designed to offer all the space needed to suit modern lifestyles.

The ground floor features a light and airy reception room with French doors to the rear garden, and is completed by a well-proportioned kitchen and a guest cloakroom off the entrance hallway.

Upstairs, the landing leads to a beautiful double bedroom, a third bedroom/study and a main bathroom. The master bedroom with en-suite bathroom and a wealth of built-in storage space occupies the entire top floor – the perfect get-away for parents, or fabulous for those seeking to share the cost of their first home with a lodger.

Another special feature which makes the ‘Harvington’ an excellent choice over a second-hand home is that, like all brand new properties at The Quarters, it will be finished to a high standard specification, including gas central heating, double glazing and a stylish fitted kitchen with built-in oven, hob and hood.

Alternatively, one-bedroom ‘Kennet’ apartments, priced from £94,995, benefit from a well-proportioned lounge/dining room, a good-sized bedroom and a modern shower room off the private entrance hallway, while two-bedroom ‘Pearl’ and ‘Opal’ apartments are also available from £114,995. Allocated parking is included with all apartments at The Quarters.

Open from 10am to 6pm Thursday to Monday, the new Sales Centre at The Quarters showcases artists’ impressions of the new homes, floor plans of a range of available properties, as well as enabling potential homebuyers to discover the excellent location of the development site.

Those reserving a new home can take advantage of securing their property at today’s prices, even if their home increases in value by thousands of pounds before they are handed the keys.

Plus, by purchasing off-plan, customers can choose to add detail and value to their new home from Taylor Wimpey’s Options range of stylish finishing touches – including flooring, carpets, lighting, tiling, upgraded kitchen units and integrated appliances – which will be fitted by experts ready for moving-in day.

Taylor Wimpey also offers special homebuying incentives on selected plots, which can be tailored to suit individual circumstances and include assistance for first-time buyers and members of the armed forces, and its popular easymover scheme to help current home-owners find a purchaser for their existing property – and which even covers their estate agency fees.

Situated in a peaceful location to the south of Colchester town centre, The Quarters is well-placed for families, lying within reach of several schools and a nationally acclaimed sixth-form college.

Shops and sports facilities are close at hand, while Colchester town centre is easily accessible and the coast at West Mersea is just a 20-minute drive away.

Meanwhile, commuters will appreciate good rail and road links to Chelmsford, Brentwood and London, and to Ipswich, Bury St Edmunds, Cambridge and the Midlands. For those travelling further afield, Stansted airport is a 45-minute drive from the development.

Further information is available by visiting the Sales Centre, located off Berechurch Hall Road, Colchester and Thursday to Monday from 10am to 6pm.
