‘T’was six weeks ’til Christmas’ and all through the South West, home-hunters were stepping up their search for that perfect home.

Each year desperate home-buyers live in hope of waking up on Christmas morning in their brand-new home – and one house builder is offering the chance of making this festive dream come true, with a few treats along the way.

Home builder Redrow is offering ‘Fast Track Homes’, ready to move into for the festive season, at the majority of its developments throughout the South West.

Lorraine Kendrick, sales director for Redrow Homes (South West) says: “‘Fast Track Homes’ are perfect for those looking to open their presents in a brand new home this Christmas morning.  It means that home-buyers can move straight into it with the minimum of fuss and no delay. And what’s more we have numerous incentives that are tailor-made for each individual home buyer.”

Incentives can include a mixture of benefits from 5% cash back, stamp duty paid, carpets and flooring throughout, legal fees paid, integrated appliances and turf to the rear gardens or part exchange, depending on the location.

Lorraine continues: “The wide choice of incentives plus the fact that the homes are ready to move in to straight away means that home-buyers had better be quick to reserve their new home.”
‘Fast Track Homes’ are currently available at Rushmead Park in Trowbridge, Abbey Manor in Swindon, Fenway Park in Chippenham and Elmbridge Park in Gloucester.

“Elmbridge Park is a great development that is close to Gloucester city centre with its wealth of shops and amenities. The highly versatile, four-bedroom Ribble is ready to move in to,” adds Lorraine.

The Ribble house-type makes smart use of its roof space to create a valuable extra living area with a master bedroom and en-suite. The rest of the bedrooms and family bathroom are on the first floor and the ground floor features a separate dining room, kitchen, lounge and cloakroom.  The three-story, four-bedroom Ribble is priced at only £244,995.

“The Ribble, is also available at the Rushmead Park development in Trowbridge, as is the Walkham house-type.  The latter is a great family home, priced at £259,995, with the spacious four-bedroom accommodation, once again, spread over three floors of living space,” continues Lorraine.

The ground floor boasts a spacious, fully fitted kitchen with separate utility room, a lounge with patio doors onto the garden, a separate dining room and cloakroom/wc.  The master bedroom with fitted wardrobes and en-suite shower room is on the first floor, alongside bedroom two (also with fitted wardrobes) and the family bathroom. Two further bedrooms are on the floor above.

“With Christmas just around the corner – we would advise anyone looking for their new home to visit one of our developments and see the fantastic show homes and great communities that have emerged at each site,” adds Lorraine.
