A smooth move for coouple in search of the perfect Redrow home

Thu, May 15th 2008, 11:15

A young couple are making a hassle free move to a brand new Redrow home in Pontllanfraith after taking advantage of the award winning developer’s part-exchange offer.

Gemma and Carl Thorne, both 27, upgraded their two-bedroom semi by effectively ‘swapping’ it for a brand new four-bedroom detached home at Redrow’s Llys Ffynnon development, without the hassle of having to find a buyer.


Gemma said: “Everything has been so easy, we haven’t had to worry about selling our old house or getting stuck in chain and can just look forward to moving into our new home.


“I’ve always wanted to live in a Redrow home because of the style and quality they offer. The four-bedroom ‘Friston’ style home has got all the space we need, with a separate dining room and en-suite bathroom to the master bedroom.


“We looked specifically for a Redrow development in this area and were really happy when we found Llys Ffynnon as it is closer to where our family live and is surrounded by beautiful countryside.”


Gemma, who works in customer services, and her football-mad husband Carl, are moving from Watsville, and will be even closer to where Carl plays football for his local team.


Gemma added: “We were keen to buy a new home so we don’t need to worry about renovations or decorating – we can just move straight in and relax.”
The couple were among the first people to purchase a home in the final phase of the development, which includes a choice of three and four-bedroom homes.


Situated in the village of Pontllanfraith, Llys Ffynnon has all the essential amenities close by. The town centre of Blackwood is only two miles away providing larger shopping facilities, restaurants and cafes and a great range of leisure facilities can be found in nearby Caerphilly.


The nearest railway station is located in Ystrad Mynach, approximately five miles away, with direct services to Cardiff, which can be reached approximately half and hour. Cardiff International Airport is easily accessible by car within an hour and there are good road links to the surrounding towns. 


A selection of three and four-bedroom homes is currently available at Llys Ffynnon priced from £164,995 to £259,995, with part-exchange available on selected plots. It’s one of a range of incentives available under the umbrella of ‘re:assure from Redrow’, all of which are designed to make moving home as easy as possible right from the moment of first enquiry right up until after the customer has moved in.


A ‘Friston’, like the one bought by Gemma and Carl, with open plan lounge and dining room, downstairs cloakroom, en-suite bathroom to the master bedroom and integral garage, is available from £205,995. A fully furnished Friston show home can also be viewed at the development, on Newbridge Road, between 10am and 5.30pm, Monday to Thursday inclusive.
