Demand high for Moreton Edge homes

A development in Moreton-on-Marsh has seen a more than 80 per cent of its plots reserved before any of the homes have even been completed.

Moreton Edge is a development of 16 new homes on the site of the Moreton-in-Marsh hospital and has seen 13 properties reserved off-plan.

The development is being created by Deeley Homes, a division of Midlands-based firm the Deeley Group.

Moreton Edge features three two-bedroom cottages at the front of the development, ranging through to a, three-storey, five-bedroom house

The homes are built around a private garden and green space, with the rear of the site overlooking open Cotswold countryside.

All of the properties with more than two bedrooms have been reserved, with the first home set to be completed in autumn this year.

The development benefits from a nearby train line which goes directly from Moreton-in-Marsh to London Paddington in 90 minutes.

Moreton Edge’s early success points to a thriving property market in Cotswold location and workers from the City looking to move out of London to easily commutable areas.

Eleanor Deeley, Deputy Managing Director of the Deeley Group, said: “We’ve experienced a very encouraging start with this development and being over 80 per cent reserved at this stage demonstrates the strength of the market and the demand for high quality housing.

“This is an ideal location in the heart of one the finest Cotswold towns and we are ensuring these homes fully complement the surroundings.

“Cotswold locations are proving particularly popular with buyers at the moment and Moreton has the advantage of a direct train service to London.

“We have also benefitted from being a rare town centre development, with developments usually coming on the edge of a town and are thrilled that we’ve managed to maintain the ‘feel’ of a traditional Cotswold home.

“Deeley Homes is confident that those who have already reserved will be delighted with the high-quality, stylish new homes that we are creating at Moreton Edge and expect every plot to be reserved off-plan very soon.”

Moreton Edge is being marketed by Oliver Knight New Homes.

Oliver Knight added: “The interest in this development has been overwhelming, not just driven by people relocating to this beautiful Cotswold town but also due to being a small luxury development of just 16 luxury houses just behind the high street and close to the railway station with its direct train to London Paddington.”
