• 13th December 2010

Homebuilder Shepherd Homes is holding an exclusive potential purchasers preview event to launch its eagerly awaited Wallnook Grange development, situated near Durham City, at the Royal County Hotel, Durham City, between 11am-3pm on Saturday, November 20.

The developer is launching three completely new luxury house types at Wallnook Grange called The Oak, The Elm and The Ash. Exclusively designed for Wallnook Grange, the 23 four- and five-bedroom homes are built from natural stone, feature slate roofs and benefit from under floor heating. Prices of the properties will be revealed at the preview event.

Five homes - two Ash, two Elms and one Oak - will be released for sale for eager buyers to purchase off plan at the event which is taking place in the hotel’s Bowes Suite. Hosted by Tracy Iles, Shepherd Homes’ sales and marketing manager, and Dorothy Bell-Davis, Wallnook Grange’s sales executive, visitors will be able to enjoy seasonal light refreshments consisting of mulled wine and mince pies.

Dorothy Bell-Davis said: “The launch event provides an excellent opportunity for us to present the magnificent new homes available at Wallnook Grange. The new house types really are something special and feature outstanding specification that will completely set them apart. We’re creating an exclusive development in a beautiful part of County Durham and the homes have been designed to complement their surroundings.”

Situated off the A691 and close to both Durham City and Lanchester with Newcastle just 15 miles away, Wallnook Grange is in a beautiful location that boasts picturesque open countryside and scenic views of the nearby River Browney.

Dorothy continued: “The launch event is a must for anyone searching for a luxury new home in Durham. With a significant number of prospective homebuyers having already registered their interest in the development, I would ask anyone interested to come along to the launch event to discover more about the properties available.”

The Elm, which is one of the five properties being released for sale on November 6, is a spacious family home which has five bedrooms and an integral garage. The ground floor includes an airy, dual aspect living room with bi-folding doors leading to the rear garden, a luxury kitchen with fully integrated Bosh appliances and a dining area.

The first floor comprises a beautiful master bedroom and a second bedroom, both with en suite wet rooms, whilst three further generously-sized double bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom complete the layout.

Dorothy concluded: “Wallnook Grange also benefits from having numerous amenities close at hand including supermarkets, a post office and butchers. Primary schools with nursery, reception and junior classes are also situated nearby and the Arniston Centre Retail Park is only a few miles away. The development’s situation means it is able to offer both a beautiful countryside retreat and the convenience of proximity to all the facilities of a modern lifestyle.”
