New homes in Milton Keynes are ideal for families

Taylor Wimpey’s specialist assistance helped homebuyers Sarah Callan and Aaron Evans make a straightforward move to Oxley Gate, the leading housebuilder’s sought-after development of new homes for sale in Milton Keynes.

Sarah Callan and Aaron Evans sidestepped the sluggish second-hand property market by taking advantage of Taylor Wimpey’s easymover scheme to secure their ideal Milton Keynes property.

The couple and their daughter Maisie (4) are enjoying life in their brand new three-bedroom townhouse at the leading housebuilder’s Oxley Gate development of new build homes in Milton Keynes after a quick and hassle-free move.

“We had been living just two roundabouts up the road in Shenley Lodge, and were looking to move to a bigger house there,” says events manager Sarah (37), reflecting on the couple’s search for houses for sale in Milton Keynes.

“But, by luck, Aaron saw an advert for Oxley Gate on the internet, and although it was a little way away from where we had been house-hunting, we decided to visit the development.”

Despite having their own home to sell, Sarah and Aaron found they could make a speedy move thanks to Taylor Wimpey’s easymover initiative, which is available with selected family-size houses at the development of property for sale in Milton Keynes.

The leading housebuilder’s scheme makes life simple for purchasers with a place to sell – they can reserve their new home and then sit back and relax while Taylor Wimpey finds a buyer for their current property – all in a matter of a few weeks!

Sarah says: “We first visited Oxley Gate around Easter time, and by the end of June we had moved in!

“The whole process was very quick and really smooth – it was a really good experience and the Sales Executives in the Sales Centre at Oxley Gate were brilliant all the way through, really helpful.”

The family are overjoyed to be in their new home, a three-bedroom ‘Azure Type 3’ townhouse, after its versatile three-storey layout won them over.

“We had originally planned to buy a two-storey house at Oxley Gate,” says Sarah.

“But as soon as we saw the ‘Azure’ we absolutely loved it! We have a large bedroom on the top floor with an en-suite, and a wonderful terrace which almost makes you feel like you’re on holiday!

“The two bedrooms on the middle floor are a really good size, and the kitchen/dining room, downstairs is a favourite room of ours. We were after somewhere with plenty of space, and that’s just what we’ve got.”
Sarah and Aaron (34), a data analyst, are also impressed with the location and layout of the Oxley Gate development.

“It’s a great place to bring up children,” says Sarah. “There are seven play parks at the development, all linked by a woodland walk, which is great to explore.

“We also love having some local shops nearby, including a Thai restaurant which we really like.”

A stunning selection of new houses is available at Oxley Gate, with prices starting from as little as £167,995 for a two-bedroom coach house-style apartment, £210,00 for three-bedroom homes and only £259,995 for four-bedroom designs.

Set in a peaceful location on the western edge of Milton Keynes and bounded by a woodland reserve and open countryside, Oxley Gate is also within easy reach of thecentre:mk shopping centre, Xscape leisure dome and the Theatre District.

For commuters, the development is well placed for the M1 north and south, while Milton Keynes railway station offers direct services to London Euston in as little as 40 minutes.
