Homebuyer finds ideal property in Soham

Father-of-two Chris Bacon is delighted with his brand new place at Taylor Wimpey’s Lion Mills development of houses for sale in Soham, Cambridgeshire.
When Chris Bacon moved into his ideal home at Taylor Wimpey’s Lion Mills development of property for sale in Soham, he was so impressed by the whole experience that he contacted the leading housebuilder’s regional HQ to let them know the very next week.
It wasn’t just that he loved his incredible new four-bedroom ‘Salisbury’ townhouse, or that he was thrilled with the great value-for-money price tag – or even that Lion Mills offers an ideal riverside location – though these were all factors in his decision to buy at this sought-after development of new homes in Soham.
The key reason for his email was Taylor Wimpey’s exceptional customer service from staff in every department – from the sales people he met on his first visit to the site, to the build quality of his new Soham property, and through to the fantastic after sales service from the project manger and deputy site managers.
As Chris explained in his email after reserving his dream home from this fantastic selection of houses in Soham: “Jemma and Theresa from sales have been simply fantastic – great representatives for Taylor Wimpey. The staff played a huge part in my choice to purchase from this development.
“Andy, the deputy site manager who has now moved on to another Taylor Wimpey development in Cambourne, has also been fantastic as has Kevin the project manager. I have also had my first meeting with Ben, who has replaced Andy, and was very impressed. The quality of all aspects is of the absolute highest. I definitely made the right decision!”
Chris (31), an account manager, had outgrown the home he had been renting in Milton, just north of Cambridge, and had saved up a deposit with the plan of buying. His two children, eight-year-old Kiran and four-year-old Ella, needed their own bedrooms when they came to stay at weekends and he also needed an office.
His first experience of the site, meeting the sales staff and finding out about the awards Taylor Wimpey have won, were an important part of his decision to buy his home there.
He added: “It’s a really nice development and offers real value for money. Plus it’s a great location, especially for the kids.
“It’s an incredible property and it’s great for the children to have their own bedrooms. The build quality and the after-sales service are fantastic and I still pop in and see the sales staff now.”
