Property Details

The Avenue offers various house types, including semi-detached and detached homes. Specific examples from the available listings include the two-bedroom semi-detached 'The Askern', priced from £199,995, the three-bedroom 'The Ripon' from £214,995, and three-bedroom detached homes from £259,995. All new build homes come with a 10-year warranty. The developer's specification includes key modern features such as designer kitchens equipped with integrated appliances, fashionable tiling, spacious room layouts, and classic French doors leading to the garden.

Off-street parking is provided for residents.
