Housebuilder Morris has seen a rush of househunters at its Norton Gate development in Shire Oak opting for three storey homes.
According to Morris, many buyers are shunning traditional two level properties in favour of three-storey living because of the changing lifestyles of the modern family.
A major attraction of three storey living is that, unlike conventional layouts, the homes offer a flexibility for you to adapt to your family’s requirements. Older children can be given their own space as families are able to ‘zone’ levels of their home.
Similarly with elderly relatives, some properties have downstairs bedroom quarters that can become the ideal ‘live-in’ accommodation.
Cindy Vial, regional sales director for Morris, said: “The flexibility of multi-level living is ideal as family situations change. Rather than letting the space dictate your arrangements, you can tailor your home to suit your family’s needs.
“Customers have told us that they particularly enjoy the privacy given to them by the location of the living room on the first floor, away from the view of passers-by and, in the case of Norton Gate, they can relax in the stunning surroundings of Cannock Chase.”
Norton Gate development in Shire Oak is currently offering three-bedroomed homes set across three levels from £143,950* with the FirstBuy scheme. The Government-led scheme allows buyers to purchase a property for 80 per cent of its value, enabling them to benefit from lower mortgage repayments and avoiding the need to secure a large deposit.
