Low-maintenance starter home with garden, driveway and 10-year warranty.
Detached three-bedroom layout with front and rear gardens
This three-bedroom Kilkenny design offers compact, modern living in a detached house on Curlew Way. The ground floor has a living room with an exposed staircase and an open-plan kitchen-diner with French doors onto the rear garden, creating easy indoor–outdoor flow. Fixtures include Porcelanosa-tiled family bathroom and high-quality fittings from known brands, plus a driveway and front and rear gardens. A 10-year warranty covers the build (first 2 years with the builder, then NHBC for eight years). Optional upgrades are available subject to build stage and extra cost.
The home is best suited to first-time buyers or small families seeking a low-maintenance, energy-efficient new build with the flexibility to personalise finishes. Room sizes are compact — total area around 589 sq ft — so the third room is most practical as a nursery, home office, or dressing room. Practical storage and straightforward layouts help maximise usable space.
Location benefits include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, local bus links and nearby schools rated Good to Outstanding. Downsides to factor in: the property sits in an area rated very deprived with a high local crime level and is on the small town/town-fringe edge. Council tax band and EPC potential rating are to be confirmed, and optional upgrades add cost. Buyers should weigh the low-maintenance new build advantages against the local social and safety indicators when deciding to view.
