Cedars Park residents choose to stay put
For those looking to purchase a new home in Stowmarket, it has become a significant trend in Crest Nicholson’s Cedars Park to stay within the development.
Latest reports show that existing residents are choosing to upsize from apartments to houses, or downsize when the space they had before is no longer needed, because the development offers them everything they need, for whatever stage of life they happen to be in. According to Crest Nicholson, there have been several cases of residents at the development having moved from one property in Cedars Park to another.
Annette Cole, Sales and Marketing Director at Crest Nicholson Eastern comments: “Cedars Park is ideal for a wide range of buyers, both existing and new. It is not surprising that so many people are choosing to move within the development as there is something to offer all ages whether trading up or downsizing. Our latest phase, Maple Tye, is also seeing a lot of friends and family of residents who already live on the development choosing to move here. As a result, Maple Tye has developed a warm, community atmosphere and that’s something you can really feel whilst living on or even visiting the development.”
Newlywed couple Ben (33) and Emma (29) Lucas from Stowmarket, in Suffolk, are just one example of a couple who rented a property at the Cedars Park development and loved living there so much that they decided to buy their first home together at Maple Tye.
When they got engaged, Emma and Ben began looking for a larger home to move into once they were married and were impressed with the houses at Maple Tye. Emma comments: “Ben and I have both lived in Stowmarket for most of our lives and, with our parents living nearby, we didn’t want to have to move from our home on the Cedars Park development but we really wanted to get onto the property ladder. When we saw the houses at Maple Tye we fell in love with the three bedroom properties on offer, now we have the perfect home for our lives together and even room for a family in the future. In the meantime friends of ours, Jon Prentice and Nicole Callan, have already moved into their own house here just two doors down, which is going to make living at Maple Tye even more enjoyable! We’ll definitely be sticking around here for a while.”
Chris Philpot, a Partner at Lacy Scott & Knight Estate Agents comments: “Since the first houses were built at Cedars Park over ten years ago, the community has continued to grow at a steady pace, and now enjoys schooling, and a supermarket, with the Village Centre anticipated in the near future. Listening to Ben and Emma Lucas’s story, their situation doesn’t surprise me. With its easy links to the A14 and to Stowmarket itself, residents are now moving within Cedars Park as their own lifestyles and families change, and this has resulted in strong bonds not only inside the development but also with the main town of Stowmarket.”
Just one mile from the centre of the ancient market town of Stowmarket, properties at Cedars Park provide all the essentials of modern living; surrounded by some of Suffolk’s most beautiful countryside and close to Stowmarket station, commuters to London can reach Liverpool Street in just 75 minutes, whilst Norwich is just 35 minutes away.
Annette Cole continues: “Crest Nicholson’s Cedars Park development in Stowmarket is a fantastic place to live and this has been proven by the amount of people that move and stay here. It is no wonder that people want to stay at the development; it offers a great community atmosphere, as well as being conveniently placed within easy reach of the thriving shopping and commercial centres of both Bury St. Edmunds and Ipswich.”
