Perfect homes for family life in Gloucester

Get a real taste of how your new home could look by visiting the new viewhome which is opening at Persimmon Homes’ Persimmon Vale development in Quedgeley, Gloucester.

The Hermitage viewhome has now opened its doors, demonstrating how welcoming this three bedroom three storey family property really is.

On the ground floor is a kitchen, cloakroom and lounge / dining area with a feature bay window and patio doors leading onto a good sized garden. Bedrooms two and three can be found on the first floor, along with a family bathroom. The top of the house sees the master bedroom complete with en suite.

The contemporary décor which features throughout the viewhome gives it a young, modern feel, illustrating how perfect it is for first time buyers.

And with the Government’s 70 per cent shared equity HomeBuy Direct scheme still available on selected plots, the Hermitage is even more affordable.

Alison Reading, sales director for Persimmon Homes South Midlands, comments: “HomeBuy Direct assists households which earn less than £60,000, who could not otherwise afford to buy a suitable property on the open market, to purchase a home.

“Buyers only have to meet 70 per cent of the purchase price with a 5 per cent deposit and a home buyer’s mortgage. The remaining 30 per cent is made up by an equity loan, co-funded by us and the Government.”

There are currently two Hermitage house-types available at Persimmon Vale, priced from £169,995 with a garage. Through HomeBuy Direct, this price comes down to just £118,997.

HomeBuy Direct is also available on the final Blacksmith house-type. The three bedroom detached property is priced at £199,995 and enjoys a dual aspect lounge and kitchen / dining room on the ground floor, both with patio doors leading to the garden. There is also a cloakroom.

On the first floor is the master bedroom with en suite, bedrooms two and three, and a family bathroom. The Blacksmith has an excellent position on the development, facing open space and with a lovely garden.

For families who require a greater amount of space, a one-off Bridle house-type is currently for sale. The traditional four bedroom detached property comes with a double garage and is priced at £229,995.

Persimmon Vale is not just a housing development but a whole new community. A primary school is already open on the development, with plans for Tesco, a pub, pharmacy and health and sports facilities, all in the pipeline. Play areas and parkland are incorporated into the design, creating a vibrant community which is perfect for family life.

Situated just three miles south of Gloucester, close to M5 Junction 12, Persimmon Vale has good road and rail links. The attractive town of Cheltenham is a short drive away, with Swindon, Bristol and Birmingham all well within commuting distance.
