As a registered nurse and single parent, Maureen has balanced work, childcare and saving to secure her first home. She is now the proud owner of a three-bedroom home at Linden Homes’ successful Heath Farm development, which covers Partington and Carrington in Greater Manchester.
The homebuying journey for Maureen began around five years ago, following her divorce. She had been exploring Greater Manchester for areas that suit her work commitments and her daughters' schools before deciding on Heath Farm, which is now fully sold.
Maureen commented, “Saving up for my new home was a challenge, but I’m really proud of myself and my daughters. It was nerve-wracking having had no experience of the process, but I’m so happy with my decision. It’s the perfect time for me and my girls to start our next adventure together.”
Maureen was particularly keen to own a new build home that would be move-in ready and cost-effective to maintain. Opting for a Linden property also meant Maureen was able to personalise her kitchen and bathroom design, and enjoy brand new appliances.
A further benefit of Maureen’s new home is its energy-efficient design. All of Linden’s homes are on average 21% cheaper to run compared to older properties.*
Maureen said: “It was really important that my new home was energy-efficient. I was looking for a home that had solar panels and low energy usage, as it would be a great way for me to save money. I’m happy to say I’ve found that at Heath Farm.”
Heath Farm has proven popular with a range of homebuyers, loving the location and quality of homes available. It is about to enter its next phase, with Bovis Homes set to launch its collection of two, three and four-bedroom homes on the development this year.
Inspired by traditional Trafford properties, Bovis has designed the new homes with local heritage in mind. Features include porches and canopies set behind brick archways to create a modern take on a classic 1930s Trafford home.
Matt Parkes, Managing Director at Vistry Manchester and Cheshire East, commented: “Maureen’s journey to homeownership is an inspiration to us all, particularly those already working hard to get themselves onto the property ladder. Heath Farm is a great location for families with its perfect balance of city connection and peaceful, green surroundings, so we’re looking forward to welcoming new buyers to our Bovis phase. I wish Maureen and her daughters a lifetime of happiness in their new home.”
