Retired couple find their perfect home at our Etling Grove development
After taking early retirement and moving to Turkey, Keith and Christine Warner decided they wanted to return and settle back in the UK.
The perfect place to settle
The couple had always holidayed in Norfolk, so decided it was the perfect place to resettle. Keith said: "We had already decided on Dereham as our search area because of all the amenities available. We had looked at various cottages and projects, but we've always purchased new builds in the past."
After viewing several new build developments, they discovered our Etling Grove development in Dereham. "Driving on to Etling Grove, our first impressions were promising with the areas of green space, a variety of building styles and the open feel of the building layout" said Keith.
Keith continued to say: “We met Sally in the sales office and looked in the show home. It was a breath of fresh air to find a sales representative who was so welcoming and friendly, as well as very knowledgeable about the properties.
“After viewing the show home, we looked at the plots that were available and discovered our new home, which was already completed and ready to move into.”
“We chose the Waysdale as the 4 bedrooms offered us everything that we wanted as well as the large, light and airy kitchen/diner that we were used to. It also came with a garden size that was superior to other new builds we had looked at.”
When the couple aren't outdoors indulging in their garden projects and creating a garden exactly how they want it to be, they are working on their other indoor hobbies. Keith said; "We liked the balance of room sizes and could see how we could utilise the bedrooms for our hobbies. The property featured good quality appliances and we liked the amount of storage space available. We have converted two of the bedrooms into bespoke areas to suit our needs and hobbies."
Christine added: "It was great to find a completed property that met our needs. The whole process of buying through Taylor Wimpey was very quick and easy. We even got to meet with the site manager, Andy and sales exec, Sally, who talked us through the whole build construction and the various energy efficient features of our home."
Reflecting on their time at Etling Grove, Christine said; "We have lived here for a year now and we are enjoying life at Etling Grove. It is a peaceful area and we feel very settled and enjoy the mix of older and younger people living on the development.
"All our dealings with the Taylor Wimpey staff at Etling Grove have been very helpful and friendly."
Keith's final bit of advice for anyone looking to buy a Taylor Wimpey home; "If anyone is thinking of buying a Taylor Wimpey home at Etling Grove, don't think about it - do it. Be proud to be a Taylor Wimpey home owner - we are."
