Make a stress-free move to a new property in Ipswich

Taylor Wimpey offers all the help its customers need to secure their ideal home at its Cedarwood Grove development of houses for sale in Kesgrave, Ipswich – as parents Darin and Alison Mills discovered.

Every family has its own specific needs – and for Darin and Alison Mills this meant making as smooth a move as possible into a new property for sale in Ipswich which was suitable for their autistic son.

Life in their old three-storey townhouse had become too much of a struggle for the family and so they decided to look for new homes for sale in Ipswich offering a more convenient layout over two floors.

A visit to Taylor Wimpey’s Cedarwood Grove development of new homes in Kesgrave, Ipswich, presented the Mills family with the perfect place – a stylish two-storey property with plenty of space, and also within easy reach of six-year-old Toby’s school friends.

And thanks to Taylor Wimpey, who offered them all the help they needed to ensure the purchase of their property for sale in Kesgrave went without a hitch, they were able to make the move without any disruption to their boy’s daily routine.

“Taylor Wimpey and the independent solicitors they recommended helped us make the move exactly when we wanted, which allowed us to start early and get Toby’s new room ready for when he came home from school,” says Darin (43), recalling their experience of purchasing at the development of new homes for sale in Kesgrave. “They were brilliant and gave us exactly what we asked for!

“It might seem trivial to some people, but if they knew about Toby’s condition then they would understand how important this was.”

“Our old house was getting hard to manage because of Toby’s autism. We found ourselves running up and down two flights of stairs and it was becoming a difficulty,” adds Darin, who runs his own joinery firm.

“We wanted to find a place on two floors to make things easier for us all and now we have a lovely double-fronted, two-storey house at Cedarwood Grove, which impressed me with how well it is put together.

“Having the lounge on the ground floor really appeals to us and there is an additional room we use as a playroom for Toby, and with his school friends living within walking distance this is great, because they can come over to play.

“This was the easiest move we have made and every one of the Taylor Wimpey staff we’ve been in contact with – from the start to the end – has been really helpful. We’re really pleased to have bought at Cedarwood Grove.”

A stunning range of three-bedroom homes is currently available at Cedarwood Grove, priced from as little as £189,995, while four-bedroom properties are priced from just £199,995.

The four-bedroom ‘Shalford’ detached house, for example, is priced from only £284,995. This impressive property features a modern kitchen/breakfast area and a spacious living room, each opening through French doors to the private rear garden, plus a separate dining room and a handy guest cloakroom which completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, the landing leads to the en-suite master bedroom, three further well-proportioned bedrooms and a main bathroom, while outside the property benefits from a garage and additional parking.

To make choosing a home at this desirable development even more appealing, Taylor Wimpey offers a range of helpful homebuyer incentives for first-time purchasers and those with a property to sell, including the fantastic Part Exchange and easymover schemes with selected properties.

Under Part Exchange, homebuyers at Cedarwood Gardens receive the market value of their current property, based on the average of independent professional valuations, and can relax in their existing home until their new one is ready to move into. Meanwhile, easymover sees the leading housebuilder find a buyer for a customer’s current home in just a few weeks, and can even pay the estate agents’ fees.

Incentives can be tailored to customers’ individual circumstances and are subject to availability, with full details available from the Sales Executive.

Cedarwood Grove enjoys a convenient location within Kesgrave, which has a distinct, village feel on the eastern fringes of Ipswich. Its wealth of local facilities includes pubs and eateries and a Tesco supermarket, as well as a library, a medical centre, and a scout hall.

Families will appreciate that the new homes are adjacent to Cedarwood Primary School, while Kesgrave also boasts a secondary school, and a day nursery.

Ipswich is a thriving town, steeped in history and offering a vibrant mix of heritage, the arts, theatre, cinema, clubs and bars, as well as a wide selection of shops.

And within a few minutes’ drive is the beautiful Suffolk landscape which inspired the artist Constable, and some of the county’s prettiest villages, as well as the stunning scenery of the celebrated Suffolk coastline.
