Plot 120 (The Bowyer) - priced at £470,000About the HomeAn aesthetically delightful, double-fronted 4-bedroom home, The Bowyer provides growing families and second-steppers with substantial and flexible space to meet ever-evolving lifestyles. Several dual-aspect rooms, and a spectacular bay window in the dining area add character, while practical features such as three double-sized bedrooms and a utility room make this home ready for contemporary living.
The front door opens into the welcoming, centrally-located hallway, from which the ground floor radiates out. To one side of the home is the living room, which enjoys a dual aspect and provides dedicated space for relaxing and entertaining, and for children to play; the open-plan kitchen, dining and family area occupies the other side of the ground floor, and is designed to become the heart of the home.
The u-shaped kitchen incorporates a breakfast bar, to gather the family around for informal weekend brunches, or for cocktails with friends. The dining area boasts a feature bay window that extends into the rear garden, and provides ample space for a formal dining table; ideal for dinner parties, Sunday roasts and family games nights. French doors from the dining area open to the outside, inviting you into the garden to soak up the summer sunshine.

Sorted by the figure you choose, and nothing else: not a recommendation. Each payment is a repayment mortgage over 30 years at the rate the lender publishes for this loan to value; after the deal, at the lender's variable rate today, which can change. The cost over the deal is its payments and the lender's stated fees, less any cashback, and the APRC is worked out the way the FCA sets for lenders. NewHomeSearch is not authorised by the FCA, does not give mortgage advice or arrange mortgages, and receives nothing from lenders. A mortgage is secured on your home. Lenders decide who they lend to and may lend less on some new homes, flats in particular: check every figure with the lender.
