THE first homes on a characterful new development in the heart of Allithwaite have been released for sale.
Winfield Gardens – named after local benefactor Mary Winfield Lambert – is close to local amenities and provides stylish and contemporary housing in a beautifully landscaped setting, tucked behind a traditional ‘village green’ that fronts on to Vicarage Lane.
The cul-de-sac comprises a selection of two-to-four-bedroom properties, including six affordable homes for people with local connections. Developed by award-winning housebuilder Russell Armer Homes, the homes reflect the area’s character, featuring stone-and-render elevations, heritage-colour window frames and slate roofs.
The show home is now open on weekends and offers potential buyers a tempting glimpse of the comfort and convenience that’s part and parcel of this superb development.
Some of the plots have already been reserved, but the four-bedroom detached homes that will occupy plots 5 and 6 are now available to buy, as is a two-bedroom bungalow that forms part of a shared ownership (50/50) scheme and is available only to local buyers. Demand for these properties is expected to be high.
The homes will expand the stock of quality homes available in this quaint Cumbrian village, while delivering wider benefits to the community. In addition to the six affordable homes, Winfield Gardens is providing £300,000 to the local councils to boost infrastructure spending, as well as a gift of land to the church and a safe new footpath link to the primary school.
Allithwaite has managed to retain its rural charm, with local amenities on the doorstep and easy access to larger towns, like neighbouring Grange-over-Sands. The homes at Winfield Gardens offer buyers the best of both worlds: stylish contemporary living on a beautifully landscaped site within an established and sought-after community.
Martyn Nicholson, Managing Director at Russell Armer Homes says: ‘We can’t wait to share this development with buyers. The homes have been designed to make the most of the site, with a good range of styles and sizes on offer, complemented by amazing interiors. The village setting is fantastic and will suit anyone looking to put down roots in a friendly community.’
