17th January 2011 Cassidy & Ashton Architects and Conlon Construction have handed over the new primary school that forms part of the large Buckshaw Village development on the site of a former Royal Ordnance factory in Chorley. The £5.5m project off Buckshaw Avenue caters for more than 200 local pupils and there is development land for an extension to accommodate up to 420 children as demand increases. The school, owned and operated by the Blackburn Church of England Diocese and the Chorley Methodist Circuit, was due to open in September 2010 but met with a delay before construction began due to protracted negotiations between Redrow, Chorley Council and the diocese over the sale of the land. Conlon completed construction within the contracted 52-week build period. The school opened in temporary accommodation for its first term at the Seven Stars Primary School in Leyland. Michael Conlon, construction director at Conlon Construction, said: "This has been a fantastic project for our team to be involved in. It is a visually stunning building with state-of-the-art facilities within and around it. "We all hope that pupils and staff members are very happy in their new home. It is so pleasing to see the children enjoying the building and it really brings our work to life." Chris Taylor, associate director from architects Cassidy & Ashton, said: "We set out to create an inspirational building which pupils, teachers and the wider community can be really proud of. It has been a challenging process and it is so exciting to see the final results making a real difference to young people's lives." Head teacher Jill Wright commented: "The children love their new school. It is a wonderful learning environment in which we can work with the children and serve the families of Buckshaw Village. My favourite part is the hall, where we can have worship and hopefully hold wonderful productions." Features of the school include a food technology kitchen, wireless network, underfloor heating and a special colourful play area for reception children.

6th January 2011 RECORD numbers of homeowners are looking to move up the housing ladder whilst getting around the problem of finding a buyer for their existing property, according to Manchester’s leading housebuilder. Barratt Manchester says levels of customer interest in its part-exchange service are at a new high. And the reason is clear – the difficulties facing homeowners who try to sell their own home in the current market. “We’ve been offering a part-exchange service for more than 30 years but we’ve never had so many people looking to take advantage of it,” said Jason Newton, Sales Director at Barratt Manchester. “People are coming to us who are understandably keen to move up the property ladder now. Because of the fall in house prices in the last four years, the gap between the price of your present home and the one you want to move up to is likely to be significantly smaller than it was in 2007.” “But we are hearing horror stories at the moment about the problems you could face if you try to sell your old property. Not only is it hard even to find a buyer in the second-hand market. Sometimes when you do find one they drop out or insist that you reduce the price.” With its part-exchange exchange service, Barratt Manchester will buy your old place in just seven days when you purchase one of their new homes. That way you can buy and sell in one easy move and know you’re getting fair market value for your old home. There are no estate agents’ fees to pay, you side-step most of the hassle and cost usually associated with selling a property and – best of all – you’ll have no worries about the dreaded housebuying ‘chain’ breaking. “It’s just like part exchanging a car,” Jason Newton added. “We’ll consider buying your current home so that you are free to buy one of ours. “We arrange for the property to be valued by two independent surveyors and make a fair offer based on the valuations. We are a guaranteed cash buyer, there’s no chain, no agents’ fees or last minute price haggling.” “This probably sounds like a very good deal to anyone currently struggling to sell their old home. I would urge anyone interested to call us today to find out more.” At both Eccleston Park and Buckshaw part exchange is available for a limited period only on selected homes. Eccleston Park is situated on Pilling lane in Chorley and boasts a fantastic array of stunning homes, with designs and prices to satisfy all tastes. Home of the week at Eccleston Park is plot 85, the three bedroom Maidstone. This desirable family home has a list price of only £147,995. Set in the heart of over 400 acres of stunning landscaped open space, Buckshaw enjoys spectacular countryside surroundings whilst benefitting from the convenience of its very own village centre. This unique community hub features both shopping and leisure facilities. It is surrounded by an extensive network of green mature woodland and thousands of newly planted trees.

19th March 2010 MAKE THE MOVE TO BUCKSHAW VILLAGE WITH HOMEBUY DIRECT Source: Easier.com Chorley buyers spread their wings with HomeBuy Direct Chorley home buyers can spread out in a spacious new home that’s reasonably priced thanks to a government-backed help scheme currently available at Buckshaw Village. Many buyers have already used HomeBuy Direct to make the move and join the thriving community of Buckshaw Village. The money saving scheme gives eligible buyers access to an equity loan for up to 30% of the purchase price, which is interest free for the first five years. It is currently available on a wide range of homes at ‘Park Avenue’, one of the individual phases that make up Buckshaw Village. Lesley Myers, area sales manager for Redrow Homes (Lancashire), says: “HomeBuy Direct is a good way for eligible purchasers to own a home at this popular development. “They will own 100% of the property from day one but can put off paying up to 30% of the asking price until a time when they have more funds available. They can start purchasing the remaining share in instalments after just 12 months.” HomeBuy Direct is open to people who have an annual household income less than £60,000, including first time buyers, those re-entering the property market following a change in circumstances, eg. divorce or the breakdown of a relationship and potentially families needing room to grow. Lesley adds: “With Redrow matching the government pound for pound to provide the 30% equity loan, no need for a large cash deposit and the loan being interest free for the first five years, this is an excellent opportunity for people to own a larger home." “The fact they potentially only need to borrow 70% of the purchase price should give our customers access to some of the better mortgage deals around and, with new homes easier to maintain, more energy efficient and potentially cheaper to run than older second hand properties, it all serves to make the new homes at Buckshaw Village more appealing.” More... |
24th February 2010 Local Mayors launch new homes in Buckshaw Village Source: Easier.com The Mayors of Chorley and South Ribble joined forces to officially open four fully furnished show homes from Redrow’s New Heritage Collection at Buckshaw Village. The new urban village, which straddles the boundaries of Chorley and South Ribble borough councils, is the first to feature the award-winning developer’s exclusive New Heritage Collection, launched nationally this month. The New Heritage Collection offers a premium housing product with more than a hint of nostalgia, influenced by the ‘Arts and Crafts’ era. Cllr Iris Smith, Mayor of Chorley, and Cllr Don Parkinson, Mayor of South Ribble, cut the ribbon to the four fully furnished show homes at The Village Green phase of Buckshaw Village, during an event attended by local estate agents, solicitors and other property professionals from the area. Designed to be instantly recognisable, The New Heritage Collection – as seen at Buckshaw Village - features traditional looking homes with all the character of an older period style property; and none of the drawbacks. Their high-specification interiors meet the demands of modern lifestyles and they are significantly more energy efficient than their second-hand counterparts. One of the most popular and enduring of domestic architectural styles, the Arts and Crafts influence can be seen in many so-called ‘character’ homes from later periods, especially the 1920s and 1930s. Christine Aitken, sales director of Redrow Homes (Lancashire), explains: “The new homes were designed with the help of feedback from our customers and consumer focus groups. Main points we took on board were most people’s desire for a conventional two-storey home, preferably detached, with an easily accessible garage and a garden of their own. “They also wanted something that looked traditional – maybe evocative of the home they grew up in - but with the latest, statement-making kitchens, bathrooms and quality fixtures and fittings." “In reply, some of the key architectural influences, styles, shapes, colours and textures reflected in the Arts and Crafts movement have been brought right up to date with high-specification interiors styled for modern living. “It’s been an overwhelming success so far with 8 sales already at Buckshaw Village, with some people reserving off-plan even before the show homes were open and other customers signalling their intention to buy by signing up for ‘Mastermove’, which helps those with an existing property still to sell.” More... |
