Taylor Wimpey’s new Get a Move On campaign highlights the wide range of incentives available to purchasers at its Hunters Park development of new homes in Costessey, near Norwich.

Taylor Wimpey East Anglia is celebrating the start of summer with a brand new campaign aimed at getting homeowners on the move at its Hunters Park development of houses for sale in Costessey, Norwich.

Get a Move On offers a range of schemes that provide financial and practical help for all buyers in search of property for sale in Costessey*.

At Taylor Wimpey’s popular Hunters Park development of properties to buy in Costessey, the leading housebuilder is offering a fabulous ‘3 for the price of 2’ deal – because for the same price as a two-storey house, purchasers can get a whole extra floor!

The three-storey Plot 52 ‘Hadleigh’ is incredible value at just £152,995 and is ready for its lucky buyer to move in this summer – so anyone hoping to secure this amazing Costessey property should act now to avoid missing out.

The ‘Hadleigh’ boasts a wealth of generous accommodation, making it perfect for those in search of houses in Costessey that offer flexible family living.

This impressive property in Costessey also benefits from a spacious living room which opens through French doors to the private rear garden, plus a contemporary fitted kitchen/breakfast area and a handy guest cloakroom located off the entrance hallway.

Upstairs, the first-floor landing leads to a good-sized bedroom with built-in wardrobes, a further bedroom which could alternatively be used as a study, and a main bathroom, while the master bedroom with en-suite shower room and dressing area enjoys appealing seclusion on the top floor. Outside, the property benefits from a garage and parking.

Taylor Wimpey has also come up with some top tips to ensure that the all important move goes as smoothly as possible.

Stacy Dornan, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “We aim to help buyers every step of the way and the range of schemes we have available offer financial help that can make owning a dream home a reality.

“Moving house, whether it’s for the first time or the fourth time, is a major event in anyone’s life but it needn’t be stressful, and we’ve put together the following tips to make sure the big move is as enjoyable as possible.”

Make a plan. Good preparation is the key to success. Make a list of everything that needs to be done well in advance, including organising removals, informing the utility companies that you are moving, having mail redirected and compiling a list of all the organisations that will need to know about your change of address.

Declutter your home. So many people waste their time and energy packing and unpacking things that they never use. Moving house is the ideal time for a big spring clean, so be ruthless – go through everything as you pack and if you haven’t used in it during the last year then throw it out, sell it or donate it to charity.

Get rid of the kids. And pets (just for the day, of course!). Getting your children and animals out from under your feet will help keep moving day as productive and as stress-free as possible, so arrange for a baby-sitter or a pet-sitter to do the honours.

Label everything clearly. Ensure that all boxes and items of furniture are clearly labelled so that everything is put in the right room in your new house. Colour-coding is an effective and easy way of doing this. If possible, have a floor plan of your new home available to help the removals team.

Keep the linen handy. Strip the linen from the beds early in the day and keep it somewhere that’s easy to get to in preparation for your first night in the new house. It’s also a good idea to pack the kettle, tea bags, toiletries, and anything else you might need to get your hands on quickly, in a separate box.

Make it your own. If you’re moving into a second-hand property, think about getting the property professionally cleaned before you move in. Also ensure that everything that was agreed within the sale has been left by the previous owners. You might also want to consider changing the locks as you never know who might have been given a key in the past.

Eat! On moving day, eat healthy food regularly. Start with breakfast and take time out for lunch. Also avoid drinking too much coffee. In the long run, too much caffeine may cause tension, anxiety and cloud your thinking – so drink plenty of water or fruit juice instead. Try to get plenty of sleep in the run up to the big move, too.

Have some fun. Reward yourself at the end of moving day by doing something you enjoy. Go out for a drink or meal, watch a movie or have a long relaxing bath. Don’t stay up all night unpacking. Treat yourself, and you’ll be ready to start again fresh-faced the following day!

Conveniently located on the outskirts of the neighbourhood of Costessey, Hunters Park is just six miles from the top-quality shopping, sports, leisure, entertainment and cultural amenities of Norwich.
