As we move off-site at our Deer Walk development located in Bishops’ Waltham, we can look back with great pride at its success: all 73 homes being reserved in just 18 months – with many homes reserved off-plan.
Amongst the happy homeowners at this development are, a mother and father who were so impressed by their son’s Bargate home that they subsequently reserved one for themselves without even visiting the site. A couple who cancelled a flight to Singapore to ensure they reserved their dream home and a family who purchased a home at Deer Walk deciding to sell their current family home at a later date to avoid missing out at Deer Walk.
From a corporate perspective, we are extremely proud because it shows just what’s possible in terms of new homes construction and design. The development won a prestigious Premier Guarantee Excellence Award but it also demonstrated that new homes need not be predictable ‘bland boxes’. In this instance, imaginatively re-creating the 18th-century merchants’ properties within the village; whilst thoughtfully designing the interiors to reflect today’s lifestyles.
Indeed, Deer Walk is a perfect example of how ‘We Care’ when it comes to development. Homes are placed in a woodland setting; in an aspirational village location described by The Sunday Times as one of the best places to live in the South East. All are set in space with generous gardens and featuring characterful and individual exteriors- complete with the finest internal specification set as standard. Whilst in keeping with our commitment to community investment, a woodland walkway has been added to give access to surrounding open countryside.
In summary, we’ll leave the final words to a delighted Deer Walk purchaser:
“Bargate seemed to really care about quality over mass production. You can see how they have gone to the old houses to get design ideas, so it’s in keeping with the surrounding area. It’s really well thought through.”
