Good choice of new homes in South Derbyshire

Whatever your housing needs there’s a Redrow home for you in Church Gresley, near Swadlincote.
Featuring a choice of two, three and four-bedroom properties, Priory Fields has something for everyone, from those starting out or starting over to downsizers and growing families.
Pauline Turnbull, sales director for Redrow Homes (Midlands), commented: “At Redrow we take pride in building quality homes that people really want to live in and the stand-out selection of properties at Priory Fields are no exception.
“The two-bedroom properties make ideal starter homes and are affordably priced to help first time buyers get onto the property ladder. They are also great for downsizers and empty nesters who perhaps want somewhere more manageable; while the three-bedroom properties are well suited to grandparents who want room for the grandchildren to stay over and the larger homes are perfect for families in need of extra space.”
Prices at Priory Fields range from £114,995 for a two-bedroom property up to £229,995 for a four-bedroom home.
Inspired by the architecture of the Arts and Crafts movement, the homes boast the character of ‘period’ properties, but with modern interiors designed to meet the demands of busy 21st century lifestyles.
Redrow has calculated that it can cost around £30,000 to bring an older three-bedroom property up to the same high standard of one of its stylish new homes.
“There’s something special about being the first people to live in a property. Buying a brand new home means you won’t wonder about the lifestyles of the previous occupants or inherit their decor. Instead you can personalise it to your own taste from day one, choosing everything from the kitchen cupboards and bathroom tiles, even the light switches,” Pauline explained.
“The cost of installing a new kitchen, appliances and bathrooms plus energy efficient heating, replacement windows and a whole host of other features in an older property soon adds up. By purchasing a new home instead of a second hand one, house hunters could save themselves a small fortune in DIY costs, not to mention time and energy.”
Redrow’s high quality kitchens are a particular highlight, often singled out by purchasers as the deciding factor in making their choice.
Pauline added: “Our kitchens boast the convenience of integrated top brand name appliances with tall units and extra wide drawers that offer plenty of storage. If you were to install the same high quality fixtures, fittings and appliances yourself it would cost more than £6,000, plus you would have the inconvenience of not being able to use your kitchen while the work is carried out.”
