L&Q at Willow Grove (Living Room)
Over recent years, the town of Bedford has experienced a huge surge in popularity, pushing property prices up across the board. First-time buyers in the region now spend an average of £289,000 on their home, £21,000 more than a year ago.*
Responding to the increasing demand for housing in the area, L&Q is launching a brand-new collection of two-bedroom Shared Ownership homes at L&Q at Willow Grove, on 11th November. Ideal for couples and young families alike, these homes offer an affordable route onto the property ladder in this popular area where prices are rising.
Set within the brand-new Wixams community, homes at L&Q at Willow Grove are surrounded by local shops, schools, a playground, ponds and a green, all within a ten-minute drive to Bedford town centre. Part of a major new development which will eventually be formed of four distinct villages, homes at L&Q at Willow Grove are perfect for those seeking the balance between modern and traditional village life; London can be easily reached by train whilst the Forest of Marston Vale is on residents’ doorsteps.
Homes at L&Q at Willow Grove feature a modern specification throughout. Each property has two allocated parking spaces and a garden, including a shed. The downstairs spaces feature contemporary, open-plan living rooms, whilst upstairs bedrooms are spacious, light and airy. Moreover, the main bedroom features built in wardrobes with full height mirrored doors. The internal walls, ceilings, woodwork and window frames are all white, providing the perfect blank canvas for residents to truly make the homes their own.
Claire Brenlund, Sales and Marketing Director at L&Q comments, “At L&Q, we recognise the importance of building not only homes, but neighbourhoods, and that is what L&Q at Willow Grove achieves. We are proud to be providing an alternative route onto the property ladder in an area where the demand for homes is consistently increasing. The development has a strong community feel, having been created with the traditional English village in mind. With lots of great amenities close by, L&Q at Willow Grove is a fantastic place for first-time buyers to set down roots.”
