Bletchley home owners can ditch cars, save fuel and let the train take the strain

With rising fuels costs and growing congestion, more people are ditching their cars in favour of greener and cheaper public transport – which makes Redrow’s new development in Bletchley just the ticket.

According to a recent YouGov poll, train use has increased dramatically since petrol prices rocketed this year and people are becoming more aware of their carbon footprint. So it’s no wonder the Redrow @ Bletchley Park venture, situated just a stone’s throw away from the local railway station, is proving popular.

As well as being drawn to the contemporary two-bedroom apartments, buyers are also sold on the fact that Milton Keynes is just one train stop away and London Euston can be reached in well under an hour –  commuting heaven for city workers in search of a home away from the rat race

Tonia Tyler, area sales manager for Bletchley Park, says: “When it comes to letting the train take the strain, our Bletchley Park development couldn’t be more perfectly located as it’s directly opposite Bletchley train station, making it the ideal choice for people working in Milton Keynes or London, who appreciate the easy commute.

"Purchasers can use the journey to catch up with work, plan their day or simply unwind, which is impossible if you’re behind the wheel. And what’s more there’s no ridiculous early rise with the journey to London; the train which leaves at 7.30am arrives at London Euston for 8.20am – leaving enough time to pick up some breakfast or connecting tubes.

“What’s more, that fact that the station is only a two minute walk away means there’s not even the need to park and ride. Commuters can leave their car at home – maybe even dispense with it altogether - and avoid the hassle of parking and any costs incurred.”

The apartments at Redrow @ Bletchley Park offer something which is hard to find in the bigger cities – a spacious home minus the hefty price tag.
Prices start at £169,995 for a two-bedroom Oxford. For this buyers get the opportunity to spread their wings in over 830sqft of living space and enjoy an en-suite to the master bedroom. A parking space is also included.

And prospective purchasers on the look out for the easiest route to owning their own home can speak to the on-site sales consultant about the number of flexible incentives available under the umbrella of ‘re:assure from Redrow’.

Buyers can also test drive life at the Redrow@Bletchley Park venture, thanks to a newly opened show apartment which fashionably demonstrates how the apartments can be best dressed. It’s open Thursday – Monday inclusive from 10am to 5.30pm.
