The Tailor is a compact, newly built three-bedroom semi that suits first-time buyers seeking low-maintenance living. The ground floor offers a front living room and a bright open-plan kitchen/dining area with U-shaped fittings and French doors to a private rear garden. The principal bedroom includes an en-suite shower; two further bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the first floor. Practical storage includes an understairs cupboard and a hallway cloakroom.
Built by an award-winning team and covered by a 10-year NHBC Buildmark policy, the home benefits from modern insulation and integrated kitchen appliances. Two allocated parking spaces come with the plot, and the freehold tenure plus a modest estate management charge (£102) keep ongoing costs straightforward. First-time buyer incentives apply, including stamp duty relief on properties up to £300,000 and developer purchasing support options.
Buyers should note the property’s compact footprint (approx. 788 sq ft) — room sizes are modest and external space is limited compared with larger family houses. Broadband speeds in the area are reported as very slow, and local crime statistics are very high, which may influence comfort and connectivity for some purchasers. Council tax is in band B (described as cheap) and there is no flood risk for this plot.
Overall, this home offers efficient, modern living with sensible running costs and new-build protections, making it well suited to first-time buyers and investors who prioritise low-maintenance accommodation and a strong warranty, provided they accept the compact size and local connectivity and safety considerations.
