Modern three-bedroom semi-detached new-build, freehold
Plot 9, The Skiddaw is a modern three-bedroom semi-detached home on the Newfields Estate, finished with neutral decoration and contemporary fittings. The house offers an open kitchen-diner and a bright lounge, plus an en-suite to the master — practical features for a first home or small family.
Buyers can personalise finishes with a choice of kitchens and bathrooms; landscaping and a first-floor floor covering allowance are included. Off-street parking and an enclosed rear garden add everyday convenience, while the development’s proximity to beaches, rural walks, primary schools and transport links suits those wanting a quiet suburban lifestyle with good local amenities.
Be clear about size and running costs: the property’s overall accommodation is compact at about 812 sq ft, so space is more modest than larger family homes. There is an annual maintenance charge of £300. While plot size is listed as large, the rear garden appears limited on inspection — consider the layout if outdoor space is a priority.
This freehold new-build is suited to first-time buyers or downsizers seeking a low-maintenance, modern home with scope to personalise. The low-crime, small-town setting and fast broadband make it practical for families and those working from home, but those needing generous living space should check room sizes carefully.
