Appletree Meadow welcomes its first residents
A thriving new community has just started in Etwall, as the first residents have moved into Peveril Homes’ Appletree Meadow development, located off Old Station Close.
Richard and Gill Baines have bought a new 4 bedroom detached property and were welcomed with a bouquet of flowers and a bottle of champagne in recognition of becoming the first homeowners to move in.
The couple were looking to move out of Derby city centre and into a larger property. Etwall was an area they were particularly interested in and, after viewing a second-hand home one day, they came across Appletree Meadow.
Gill comments: “We visited the development and met with the sales advisor to talk about our requirements. She thought the Darley would be ideal and when we took a look at the floor plans we were so impressed – it was exactly what we had been looking for – so we purchased off-plan. When we first saw it complete we were surprised by the size – it surpassed our expectations.”
The 4 bedroom Darley features a study, convenient cloakroom, lounge and open plan kitchen and dining room, with a handy utility room on the ground floor. Upstairs is the family bathroom and four well-proportioned bedrooms, two of which benefit from an en suite. Parking meanwhile is ample, with an integral garage and double-width drive.
Richard continues: “The home is perfect for us. There are so many things we love about it. It’s quite a sociable house in that it’s ideal for entertaining, thanks to the open plan kitchen and dining area, which also leads through to the living room. We’re looking forward to inviting our friends around.
“Also, the surrounding area is great. Our back garden is south facing and looks out onto a conservation area. There are cycle paths nearby, which means we can make the most of the outdoors and Etwall itself has a lovely village vibe. The commuter links are convenient, too. We have easy access into Derby city centre and the A38 and A50 are just a few minutes away, so we can get anywhere.”
Gill concludes: “Buying with Peveril Homes has been so easy for us and the staff onsite have been very pleasant. When we first visited the sales centre, all those months ago, we noticed a sign which said ‘Homes to build a life in’, which is exactly what we were looking for and we have now found here at Appletree Meadow.”
This Peveril Homes development features a great selection of 2, 3 and 4 bed house types. Etwall is an ideal place to live if you’re hoping to escape the hustle and bustle of city life. It offers a picturesque setting for residents, but also features a number of useful amenities, including convenience stores, pubs, a restaurant, new leisure centre, and well-regarded primary and secondary schools, which are within walking distance of Appletree Meadow.
Prices currently start at £161,950. To find out more about these new homes in Etwall, come and take a look at the view home, open Fridays to Mondays from 11am until 5pm, or visit peverilhomes.co.uk.
