New homes in Norfolk are accessible for all
Taylor Wimpey’s Blenheim Grange development of new homes for sale in Carbrooke, Norfolk, includes ideal retirement properties and homes for people with disabilities.
Property-seekers with mobility problems or those looking to downsize in preparation for retirement can find their perfect property at Blenheim Grange, Taylor Wimpey’s development of new build homes in Norfolk.
The higher quality properties on sale at this peaceful new community of new homes in Carbrooke village, near Watton, meet stringent guidelines to ensure they are easily accessible for wheelchair users, and provide practical ‘homes for life’ for those whose mobility may become limited in the future.
Care has been taken to ensure easy access in and out of the Carbrooke properties for wheelchairs, with flat or low-gradient driveways and paths. Meanwhile, the extra space required by residents with mobility difficulties to easily get out of their car when parked in the driveway has also been taken into account by Taylor Wimpey’s architects designing these new build homes in Carbrooke.
Inside, the new homes for sale in Carbrooke have corridors and doorways wide enough to accommodate wheelchairs, while radiators and washbasins have been placed in areas where they won’t impede a chair. Light switches and electrical sockets are also installed at easy-to-reach heights and there is a bathroom, cloakroom or en-suite to every floor.
Blenheim Grange is also a popular destination for downsizers of retirement age thanks to the wide range of smaller homes at the development which offer exceptional value for money, and a fantastic opportunity for purchasers to release equity from their existing property.
Two-bedroom apartments are priced from as little as £85,595, two-bedroom houses from just £91,995 and three-bedroom houses from only £115,195.
And because all homes at Blenheim Grange are maintenance-free, with the added reassurance of a two-year warranty and a 10-year guarantee from the National House-Building Council, residents can sit back, relax and not worry about having to spend their pension on costly repairs or DIY projects.
The two-bedroom ‘Chesterton’ terraced house, for example, is priced from just £91,995 and benefits from a open plan lounge/dining room opening through French doors to a private rear garden that’s a manageable size to maintain, a contemporary fitted kitchen and a handy guest cloakroom off the entrance hallway.
Upstairs, the landing leads to a spacious master bedroom, a good-sized guest bedroom and a main bathroom, while outside there is a garage.
Like all new homes at Blenheim Grange, the ‘Chesterton’ is completed to a high standard specification, including efficient central heating and double glazing – perfect for keeping the winter energy bills down – and a fitted kitchen with integrated oven, hob and hood.
Blenheim Grange enjoys a peaceful woodland location between the quiet village of Carbrooke and the attractive market town of Watton, which offers shops catering for everyday needs and a choice of nursery and primary schools.
For a wider choice of shopping and leisure, Thetford is only 15 miles from the development and the city of Norwich is less than 25 miles away by road.
