“We’ve reopened our sales centres and show homes by appointment only, with strict social distancing measures in place to help protect our customers and colleagues,” Redrow’s Yorkshire sales director Steve Jackson explains.
“Already we’re hearing tales from people about how lockdown has made them see their existing home through new eyes and yearn for something bigger, smaller or perhaps just new and different. The good news is that we’ve got plenty to tempt them at Langley Grange in Scissett”
Here are eight compelling reasons for choosing Langley Grange:
1. Location
The village location is close to countryside, yet equidistant between Huddersfield and Barnsley, not far from Wakefield, and within easy reach of the M1, making it great for those who want a semi-rural location but like to stay connected.
2. Outstanding schools
A three-tier school system operates locally and Scissett C of E First School was rated ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted prior to converting to Academy status. Scissett Middle School is rated ‘Good’, while older children can travel to Shelley College (13-18 years), which is also rated ‘Outstanding’.
3. Sport & leisure
While lockdown was largely a time for solo runs, walks and cycle rides and online fitness sessions, many will be looking forward to when they can get back to the gym and organised sport. Scissett Baths & Fitness Centre, on Wakefield Road, has a pool, modern gym and a fitness studio. There are opportunities for organised sport locally, including football, cricket and karate. Kirklees Light Railway offers days out by steam train and Bretton Hall Country Park, home to the Yorkshire Sculpture Park, is only four miles away.
4. Shops & services
There’s a Tesco Express convenience store close by for every day needs and Morrison’s supermarkets in Huddersfield and Wakefield. Barnsley, Huddersfield and Wakefield are all within a 10-mile drive, offering a full range of shops and services. When opportunities to dine out resume, there’s a good choice of eateries in the area, from country pubs to restaurants and hotels.
5. Transport
Trains from nearby Denby Dale station take 24 minutes to Huddersfield, with connections available to Leeds. Junction 38 of the M1 motorway is just a few minutes’ drive from Langley Grange.
6. Great choice of homes
A wide choice of homes, from three-bedroom mews to four-bedroom detached family homes, makes Langley Grange a development with something for everyone. All are from Redrow’s Arts & Crafts inspired Heritage Collection, a housing range that combines traditional craftsmanship with bright, contemporary interiors and convivial open plan living space. Must-have essentials like en-suite and ground floor cloakroom are included.
7. Readymade Homes
For those in a hurry, Langley Grange features some properties that are ready to move into almost straight away. They include the three-bedroom Malvern mews from only £224,950. Specification choices have been carefully picked by Redrow’s interior designers and the ‘Readymade Homes’ include some valuable extras and upgrades to make them even better value for money.
8. A helping hand
With available homes from £224,950 to £414,950, the development is eligible for Help to Buy meaning customers may be able to apply for a Government-backed equity loan for up to 20% of the property price, leaving them to find only a 5% deposit and a 75% mortgage from a lender of choice. The equity loan is interest free for the first five years. Or for those with an existing property to sell, Redrow’s own Help to Sell incentive uses local estate agents to find a buyer and makes a contribution to your selling fees.
The sales centre at Langley Grange is now open daily by appointment only, with new show homes due to open this summer. New social distancing measures are in place to ensure the safety of customers and staff.
Customers can also register for our My Redrow online hub, enabling them to fully interact with Redrow online, including browsing, reserving and choosing options for their new home.
