The four-bedroom Balmoral, priced from £595,995, has an open-plan kitchen-dining area described as the perfect location for spending time together as a family. A large lounge spans the depth of the house and a separate family room serves as a multi-functional space which could be used as a retreat for children or private study.

Sarah Boyce, sales director for Redrow Homes Thames Valley, said: “Life in lockdown has reinforced what people are looking for in a new home, with a garden and flexible indoor space for a study, gym or playroom high on househunter’s requirements.

“Due to the popularity of our previous plots, we’re sure that our final homes will be reserved very soon, particularly with such a variety of house types available and an established community feel at the development.

“We’d invite anyone who likes the idea of spacious, luxury living to book an appointment so they can come and take a look around for themselves.”

Alongside the robust procedures in place to support customers wishing to physically view developments, Redrow has invested in technology to enable a smoother virtual transaction. Through the My Redrow customer portal, buyers can view different developments and plots online, select chosen plots and select and review optional upgrades to their home.
