Take a roam from your new home with Buckinghamshire developer’s Door-ienteering Guide
Now welcoming new residents from near and far, Sales Advisers at David Wilson Homes’ new Lavendon development have put together a Door-ienteering Guide to help its homeowners get to know what’s on their doorstep.
Situated in a sought-after village location, Lavendon Fields is gaining a huge amount of attention for its incredible location and its ability to meet all criteria for 2021’s latest home buying trends.
As people begin to settle into their new homes, the guide has been developed as a way to inform new occupants of the area’s history and encourage them to explore their surroundings.
The Soames Close development is bringing a collection of four and five bedroom homes to the area which are ideal for a range of buyers including working professionals and growing families.
With Covid-19 continuing to limit holidaying abroad, this year may be the perfect opportunity for residents to take an adventure around their new home town.
Sales Adviser James is now an expert of Lavendon Fields, and is spreading his knowledge of the local area to help residents get to know their new home.
Green open space on your doorstep
Several reviews have found an association between nature and positive emotions, evidence also shows links between greener living environment and higher life satisfaction, reduced mental distress and strong evidence of improved self-rated mental health.
James said: “Residents of Lavendon Fields will be thrilled with the amount of green space they have access to. First of all, 44% of the development is made up of open space, meaning they will never be far from greenery.
“Alongside this, less than four miles away is Emberton Country Park where there are many paths and trails where you can enjoy wildlife, lakeside walks, play areas and camping in a family friendly setting.
“Also less than four miles away is Harrold Odell Country Park where you can visit two picturesque lakes, river meadows alongside the River Great Ouse, a Nature Reserve and a range of managed habitats.”
Get to know your local history
With the pandemic limiting our ability to take explore the culture of places abroad, now might be the ideal time to get to know your new home town, and the residents who settled here before you.
“New residents of Lavendon Fields may be interested in learning more about the Motte and Bailey Lavendon Castle, which has now been reduced and modified from its original form so that it survives as a low flat-topped platform.
“Residents may also want to take a short drive into the nearby market town of Olney, where they can visit the Cowper & Newton Museum to experience Georgian life in Olney and learn more about William Cowper, a renowned 18th century poet and his friend John Newton.” James added.
A shopper’s dream
Having been forced to shop online for much of the past year, many people will be excited to get out and do some physical bargain hunting, and Lavendon is the perfect place for it. Alongside this, it is more important than ever to support your local businesses.
James said: “Lavendon itself is home to a convenience store and a post office, and just a short drive away the market town of Olney has a large number of unique and independent shops on its High Street, as well as a weekly market and a supermarket.
“Lavendon Fields is in a great location with easy access to both Milton Keynes and Bedford, where there are shopping centres such as Centre:MK and Harpur Shopping Centre.”
Commuting is a breeze
With lockdown restrictions beginning to ease, many people will soon be returning to their offices. Lavendon Fields is nestled between Olney and Cold Brayford giving the development a truly rural feel, but does not sacrifice its commuter links to surrounding towns and cities.
James added: “There’s no doubt the development is going to be a hit with working professionals due to its location. Northampton, Milton Keynes and Bedford are all less than 15 miles away. Residents will also be less than 10 miles from Bedford Station, where they can reach London St Pancras in less than an hour.”
Jason Hearn, Sales Director at David Wilson Homes South Midlands, said: “As James has shown, Lavendon Fields is perfectly located for a wide variety of homebuyers.
“We’ve already seen a lot of interest in the development, so we recommend eager homebuyers to get in touch with our Sales Advisers and book an appointment to find out more.”
