Last chance to buy at Swindon development

Three years after construction began, the final homes at a sought-after development in Swindon have almost sold out.

Redrow Homes Thames Valley Abbey Farm, on Sapphire Road, has provided hundreds of jobs for those in the local area and 175 new homes for residents – and now there are just six houses remaining at this sought-after development.

There are five different house types available, each offering four bedrooms, a spacious garden and a communal outdoor play area, with plenty of green space just round the corner.

Abbey Farm has made a number of modifications to allow househunters to visit safely, including the facility to book exclusive, unaccompanied appointments, screening safety videos ahead of appointments, ensuring sales consultants are always two metres away from the customer, and installing protective screens and hand sanitiser throughout the sales centre. A thorough cleanse is performed after each appointment and opening hours have been extended to 7pm on Wednesdays and Thursdays, to account for demand.

The Cambridge, starting from £439,995, is designed with the modern dynamic of family life in mind, featuring an open-plan kitchen and dining area with additional space for a family area, playroom or study. The ground floor also features a functional utility room, as well as a separate lounge. Upstairs, there is a family bathroom, master bedroom with ensuite and three further bedrooms, perfect for a large family or those looking for multi-functional space.

Alternatively, the generously proportioned and superbly designed Sunningdale, available from £515,995, provides the perfect balance of shared rooms and personal space. This large home includes a double garage, utility room and kitchen-dining area that opens onto a spacious garden. In addition to a lounge, there is a separate snug at the rear of the house that is perfect not only as additional space for the family to relax in, but also as a playroom, office or gym. Upstairs, there are two bedrooms with ensuites, in addition to a family bathroom and two further rooms.

The impressive four-bedroom Balmoral, priced from £595,995, also offers a spacious design, featuring an open-plan kitchen-dining area that is the perfect location to spend time together as a family. A large lounge spans the depth of the house and a separate family room serves as a multi-functional space that could be used as a retreat for children or private study.

Sarah Boyce, sales director for our Thames Valley division, said: “Life in lockdown has reinforced what people are looking for in a new home, with a garden and flexible indoor space for a study, gym or playroom high on househunter’s requirements.

“Due to the popularity of our previous plots, we’re sure that our final homes will be reserved very soon, particularly with such a variety of house types available and an established community feel at the development.

“We’d invite anyone who likes the idea of spacious, luxury living to book an appointment so they can come and take a look around for themselves.”

Alongside the robust procedures in place to support customers wishing to physically view developments, we have also invested heavily in technology to enable a smoother virtual transaction. Through the My Redrow customer portal, buyers can view different developments and plots online, select chosen plots and even select and review optional upgrades to their home.

Situated in north Swindon, Abbey Farm enjoys a quiet residential setting. With the A419 just a couple of minutes away, and the superb facilities of Swindon just down the road, the development is ideal for families and commuters alike.
