As a mother of three young boys, Danielle Hassall and her husband Richard desired an idyllic family life - a house in a charming village, surrounded by countryside.

Whilst looking at properties on Rightmove, the couple came across a selection of homes at Heathfields, Anwyl Homes’ picturesque development in the village of Audlem.

Danielle and Richard, who lived in Market Drayton, visited the development to view the showhome, and were instantly attracted to the Meliden, a four bedroom detached family home with separate single garage.

The attractive double fronted house had just become available. It ticked all the boxes for Danielle and Richard, and the couple knew that they would be very happy living in it with their three sons Joshua, aged five, and twins Thomas and Zac, aged three.

Danielle said: “We wanted to move to a village in Cheshire but struggled to find a house that suited our lifestyle. The older properties that we looked at, whilst very spacious with lots of land, were not in the right location, and all needed some work doing to them, which with three young children is out of the question. Plus, some of the new builds we saw seemed poorly finished with cheap fixtures and finishes.”

Arriving at Heathfields was the turning point. Danielle added: “The Meliden is a beautiful house and a fantastic family home. It is spacious with high ceilings, particularly when compared to other new build homes, and the finish is immaculate.

"The specification, such as the kitchen appliances, is of a much better quality than we had previously seen, and I like the fact that the bedrooms are all good sizes. Having a separate garage is great too; it seems to make the house seem even bigger.”

Richard said: “The house is situated on a corner plot too, so we have a great garden which works well for both the boys and me as I enjoy gardening. We overlook countryside, so we have fabulous views of rolling green fields, and we also benefit from being opposite the development’s open green space, so the boys have plenty of areas to play!”

Danielle and Richard sold their three bedroom detached house in Market Drayton within hours and were able to take advantage of the Help to Buy scheme when purchasing from Anwyl Homes.

Richard added: “Moving house was not at all stressful and we felt looked after by Anwyl Homes throughout. We found the experience easy and straightforward, which is not always the case.”

Heathfields is a beautiful development of three, four and five bedroom homes, with prices currently starting from £312,950.
