The first homes have gone on sale at a new Bellway housing development in Saffron Walden.
Bellway Essex is building 150 new homes at Poppy View, off Thaxted Road. The site will feature 90 properties for private sale and 60 affordable homes for local people through low-cost rent or shared ownership.
The private homes will feature a range of two, three and four-bedroom houses, while the affordable homes will include a mix of house sizes as well as four apartments and four bungalows.
Bellway opened the doors to a sales office at Poppy View on 24 September as it welcomed house-hunters to the development for the first time.
Jenny Walker, Sales Director at Bellway Essex, said: “Saffron Walden is a much sought-after location and Poppy View has already attracted a high level of interest from potential purchasers. On the launch day our sales staff were inundated with questions from would-be buyers keen to find out more about the selection of homes available.
“The development will include a wide range of houses to meet the varying demands of buyers at different stages of the property ladder, as well as much-needed affordable homes for local people.
“The initial phase of properties includes houses of all sizes to cater for different requirements and budgets. We have two-bedroom homes from £402,995, three-bedroom properties starting at £499,995 and the bigger four-bedroom houses from £604,995.”
Poppy View is to feature landscaped public open spaces and a children’s playground. Bellway Essex will plant 190 new trees and a swathe of native hedgerow to create a green edge nearly 1km long at the development.
Jenny said: “The opening of our sales office on site gives house-buyers the opportunity to see with their own eyes the exact layout of the development and how it sits within the locality. Poppy View has been carefully designed to complement its countryside surroundings and we believe it will be attractive to first-time buyers, and growing families.
“The development is also proving popular with commuters due to its close proximity to Audley End railway station and direct services to Cambridge and London.”
There’s currently a selection of two, three and four-bedroom homes available to reserve, with prices starting at £402,995.
