Soon-To-Be Family Of Four Find Room To Grow

Having upsized into a new home at David Wilson Homes’ Marham Park development, a couple have made sure their family has room to grow in Bury St Edmunds.

Katie Wright (27) and Daniel Smailes (28), recently moved into their second home at the Great Hall Drive community as they sought more space with their 18-month-old son, Louis, with another little one on the way towards the end of the year.

The couple, a medical receptionist for the NHS and a commercial director, both grew up in Bury St Edmunds and also have family on the development; something which contributed to their decision to find a forever home at Marham Park.

Katie said: “We were looking to upsize from our previous properly. The main reasons for moving were so we had a garage for extra storage, a bigger garden and a separate utility room. We loved the layout of the property with a really spacious living room and large kitchen and diner, as well as a study that we have converted into a playroom for the little one.

“The local area is great. There are lots of playgrounds for the kids and a pub just down the road that has recently been renovated. It’s a friendly community and we have family living on the development too so it’s nice to be within walking distance.”

Katie and Daniel purchased a four-bedroom detached ‘Holden’ style home, which gave them the extra space they needed for a family of three, plus their cat, Neptune.

Katie added: “We like living in new build houses. We wanted a four-bedroom home so there’s enough space for family or friends to come and stay. We liked the ‘Holden’, it had everything that we were looking for.”

Annette Hurst, sales director at David Wilson Homes Eastern Counties, said: “For families looking to upsize, Marham Park is the perfect solution as we have a range of larger properties available to reserve and there’s the benefit of the 35-acre country park adjacent to the development.

“We’re delighted that Katie, Daniel and Louis have grown to love Marham Park enough to not only buy one property here, but later go on to purchase a second. We’d encourage anyone looking to follow in their footsteps to book an appointment with our sales advisers.”

There is currently one home remaining at the development, priced at £469,995. Find out more about Marham Park from David Wilson Homes.
