Choosing a new build
Her choice to purchase a new build home stemmed from the fact that it didn't have a sales chain, making the purchasing process easier.
After visiting a few developments in the area, Sylvia was sold on Taylor Wimpey after going to Bramley Park and seeing how spacious the bedrooms are. "In a lot of other homes you don't even have space for a wardrobe. The Taylor Wimpey sales team were also first class and ready to help in any way."
Sylvia's first impression of Bramley Park was that it isn't a large development, which is to her liking, and there are plenty of bus stops nearby for getting around. She said: "I like how it's quite a central location if you're looking to travel, I can easily catch the bus to Southampton."
Situated between Locks Heath and Warsash, Bramley Park is close to Locks Heath District Centre for everyday essentials and Holly Hill Woodland Park and the River Hamble for a stroll or scenic jogging route.
The development is designed to maximise its green space and to ensure it blends in well with the existing village. Once completed, it will feature public open space to create a natural meeting point for residents as well as measures to protect the local wildlife and land such as ecological buffers around the perimeter, bat and bird boxes, a sensitive lighting scheme for nocturnal animals, and diverse, natural habitats for birds.
