Special Offers At Leicestershire Village Scheme

House-hunters in Leicestershire are being offered some substantial deals by developer Cora on the current homes for sale at The Old Sawmill in Great Bowden.

It’s a development of 33 two-, three- and four-bedroom homes located in one of the county’s oldest villages, featuring several small greens which are surrounded by beautiful listed buildings. There’s a post office, general store, coffee house, village hall, cricket and tennis clubs, and a couple of pubs right on the doorstep here.

The properties at The Old Sawmill have a contemporary style designed with a range of lifestyles in mind. The two- and three-bedroom homes could be ideal for a first-time buyer or downsizer, while the larger three- and four-bedroom homes are perfect growing families and people looking for plenty of floor space and flexibility in how it’s used. Parents of younger children will be delighted to know that the nearby Great Bowden Academy C of E Primary School is rated ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted.

There’s an impressive standard specification to all homes here. It includes uPVC front doors and windows, energy-efficient central heating, fitted kitchen with integrated Siemens appliances, Roca or Laufen sanitaryware, landscaped front gardens and allocated parking with a block paved finish to driveways. Some homes come with a single or double garage. There are also a host of buyer options and upgrades to personalise the new property.

Right now and for a limited time, there are deals worth up to £10,000 on selected plots here. The offer is tailor-made to contribute to what you want in the purchase of the home.

The terraced house type, ‘The Waddesdon’, has three bedrooms and is priced from £345,000. Downstairs is dominated by the open-plan kitchen/living/dining room, with French doors to the garden. Two of the bedrooms are doubles and they all share the family bathroom. This house type comes with two off-road allocated parking spaces.

For a larger home, ‘The Sutton+’ could be the solution, a detached home starting at £550,000. Off one side of the welcoming hallway is the combined kitchen/dining room, which has access to the utility room and to the garden. An open-plan, triple-aspect lounge/garden room has generous glazing, meaning lots of natural light and large window and French doors to the rear garden. A feature fireplace is another characteristic of this large room. All four bedrooms can comfortably accommodate a double bed, with bedroom one having an en suite. The family bathroom comes with a bathtub and separate walk-in shower. Altogether, there’s 1,482 sq ft of living space, and this property comes with detached garage and off-road parking.

On Plot 25, ‘The Sudeley V’ is another detached four-bedroom house with single garage and private parking. The lounge at the front of this property has a fireplace and bay window, while on the other side of the hallway is a dedicated study. The WC and understairs storage are useful, but it’s the open-plan kitchen/dining family room which is the real highlight of this home, with generous space for flexible furniture layouts, with French doors to the garden. Bedroom one has an en suite, while the others can share the bathroom. This home starts at £600,000.
