Dreaming of a beautiful, big country house with plenty of personality, Nicola Flowers and her partner Rudy had ruled out buying a new build home , believing that it wouldn’t provide the distinctive features that they were looking for. But tempted by an advertisement on a local radio station, the couple visited Heatley Mere, a stylish collection of new homes by Countryside Properties, and instantly fell for its charm.
Just a mile from the centre of leafy Lymm in Cheshire, Heatley Mere offered Rudy and Nicola the rural escape that they desired. Rudy commented: "When Nicola and I were looking to buy a new home, we had assumed that character would only come with age and so looked towards older properties. But when we heard an advertisement on the radio describing the picturesque surroundings of Heatley Mere, we thought we would just pop along and have a look.
"We took a quick drive around the development before going into the showhome and were immediately taken aback by the landscape and by the peace and tranquillity on offer", continued Rudy. "We loved the idea of living close to water and with the Heatley Flash Lake just moments away, the development was perfect. But it wasn't until we had a tour of the showhome that we realised that we had been converted to new build.
"The homes were far nicer than anything else we had seen and when we took into consideration the cost of maintaining an older property , there was no competition - we decided to reserve there on the day - and we're glad we did, they have been snapped up. A deceptively spacious four bedroom mews house, our new home has a traditional cottage-feel to it, yet spread over three storeys and with a high quality contemporary specification, it already has the up-to-date interior that we wanted - something we know would have taken some time and money to achieve in a period property."
The peace and quiet and seemingly slower pace of life in the beautiful village has made it one of the most desirable postcodes in Cheshire. Introducing a distinctly luxurious product to the local market, the development is perfectly positioned for those who want to relax, unwind and enjoy the pleasures of outdoor life.
Every part of this development has been carefully designed to complement its surroundings. Heatley Mere is at the very centre of the rural North West, just a short walk from Lymm village with a handful of traditional shops, pubs and restaurants. Alternatively, Altrincham's cosmopolitan café culture is also close by and with the M56, M62 and M6 all within a three mile radius; it has easy access to the bright lights of Manchester city centre.
The location also benefits from a good choice of local primary schools and a secondary school, and the nearby Trans-Pennine Trail and Bridgewater Canal add the finishing touches to this breathtaking countryside development.
