B UYERS have already snapped up 14 homes off-plan at Berkley's Oakgrove development in Coulsdon Road, Caterham on the Hill – and they haven't even been built yet.
The first phase of the development will comprise two-bedroom coach houses and two-, three- and four-bedroom houses, with prices from £235,000 up to £470,000. The first show homes at Oakgrove will be unveiled next month.
Internally, the new homes will offer residents the ultimate in style and quality, with inviting hallways opening on to impressive open-plan reception rooms and luxurious bedrooms.
The design of these stunning new homes makes the most of natural lighting and the internal specification will combine luxury with practicality. Contemporary kitchens with integrated appliances, along with sleek white bathrooms with Hansgrohe brassware, reinforce the Berkeley difference.
Outside, the homes will be built of a palette of materials to blend with the existing vernacular style of the area, with emphasis on low-rise buildings of predominately two storeys. Each house will have its own secluded rear garden and patio area, perfect for entertaining.
The landscaped gardens are not the only outdoor space Oakgrove residents will have access to – more than four acres will remain as open spaces, including an area of woodland and a newly created natural play trail on existing green belt, giving residents ample opportunity to enjoy the great outdoors.
Oakgrove is well connected, despite its semi-rural location. Its position within the M25 makes access to the city easy, with central London only about 17 miles away. With the M25 some three miles away and also close proximity to the A23, a direct route to the south coast, the road network is particularly desirable.
Caterham train station is about one mile from the development, making it ideal for commuters. Services run to both London Bridge and London Victoria, in as little as 43 minutes. International travellers are also well catered for as London Gatwick Airport is about a 20 minute drive away.
Matthew Biddle, Berkeley managing director, says: "Oakgrove offers purchasers a great lifestyle – flexible family homes, lots of green space for walks and exercise, yet good, quick connections to central London. It really is a commuter's haven."
