Miller Homes Whittle-le-Park is right on track

With the official opening of a flagship £6.8m station in Buckshaw Village, Miller Homes' Whittle-le-Park development is on track to become an even bigger success.
With fast and efficient commuter trains into Manchester or Preston and free park-and-ride facilities at the ultra-modern station, the rail link is one extra reason why more and more homebuyers are choosing Whittle-le-Park.
The village lifestyle and community feeling offered in Buckshaw Village is second to none, with a thriving residents’ association organizing community events throughout the year.
Also situated within the village development is a new Tesco store, while plans for a small retail park aim to attract high street names such as Pizza Express and Costa Coffee. Coming soon is a health centre for village residents and a community garden scheme incorporating a wildlife and butterfly garden.
Kaye Davies, Chair of Buckshaw Village Community Association, says: “It’s a fantastic place to live and there is a brilliant community spirit here. There are wonderful facilities, including the school, a community centre, café, swimming pool, hairdressers and now the train station.
“There is a real opportunity for residents who move here to have a say in how their own community develops and grows.”
The community centre is the focus of village life. Hosting up to 20 groups a week – ranging from Pilates to comedy clubs, mother and toddler groups to dance classes – the centre is equipped with its own basketball court, stage and PA system. It also hosts the annual pantomime and makes the perfect venue for children’s parties. And if that isn’t enough, outside there is a multi-purpose games area for teenagers to use, with four Astroturf pitches. Local sports teams can also hire this facility.
The community centre also holds a church service each Sunday. In addition a vet’s surgery is held twice a week and a popular farmer’s market, one of the largest in Lancashire, takes place each quarter.
At the heart of Buckshaw Village is Miller Homes' Whittle-le-Park, a stunning collection of new 3 and 4-bed homes and 2-bed apartments, with a host of attractive purchasing options. Just announced in the latest phase are two of Miller Homes' most popular house designs, the Kipling and the Rolland.
The Kipling is deceptively spacious 3-bed semi-detached family home with en-suite. The floor plan creates an attractive hallway, whilst the lounge and kitchen both feature French doors opening out to the rear garden.
The Rolland is also a 3-bed family home, which has accommodation arranged over three floors. It encompasses a top floor dedicated to the master bedroom and en-suite, an open-plan kitchen dining and a study - ideal for working from home.
With prices ranging from £99,950 to £294,950, it’s little wonder more and more people are buying into the community lifestyle Whittle-le-Park has to offer.
Incentives offered by Miller Homes at the development include:
FirstBuy – the Government backed equity loan scheme created to help first time buyers and households with an income of less than £60,000 a year move in to a new home. Buyers who qualify could pay from just 80% of the market value before they move in. An equity loan, interest free for five years, makes up the difference. The lower purchase price can help buyers secure a mortgage offer.
MiMATCH – whatever buyers have saved towards a deposit, up to 5% of the price, Miller Homes will double it.
MiSWAP – a home exchange scheme that lets homeowners trade their old home for a new Miller Home, whether it is worth less, more or the same value.
MiMOVE – an assisted move package, which gives expert advice and helps homeowners prepare and market their property at the right price.
MiFAMILY DEPOSIT– if a relative pays the deposit for your Miller Home they will earn the equivalent of 5% interest over five years from the moment you move in.
Recommend a Friend – earn up to £1,000 just by recommending a friend who goes on to purchase a Miller home.
With Phase 2 apartments now released for sale at Whittle-le-Park, there is a real buzz in the air around Buckshaw Village.
