Barratt Homes is encouraging house hunters to consider its new Buckinghamshire development, Woburn Downs, by showing the benefits that can be gained from living by open space and a country park.

Woburn Downs is located on the South West side of Milton Keynes, less than six miles from the towns centre. Its location means residents will benefit from countryside walks and views, whilst essential amenities are easily accessible.

Research suggests that spending time in the natural environment not only improves your mental health and feelings of wellbeing, but can also reduce stress levels and boost your immune system.

The housebuilder designs its developments with well thought-out landscaping to ensure residents can reap these benefits on their doorsteps.

Its Milton Keynes development, Woburn Downs, is certainly no exception to this, offering a green environment for residents with lots of open space, foot and cycle paths, allotments and a nearby country park, Waterhill Park.

Living at Woburn Downs means residents will not only be able to make the most of their stunning setting and wonderful views of the Woburn countryside, but they'll also enjoy the benefits of having country walks on their doorstep.  

Residents at the Watling Street development will be a short drive away from the village of Woburn Sands, which includes shops, cafes, restaurants, a doctor's surgery, a post office and more. 

Chanda Chileshe, Senior Sales Manager at Barratt and David Wilson Homes Northampton, said: “In response to the current pandemic, we understand the importance of staying healthy and safe, and have seen the needs of buyers shift as we work towards a 'new normal'.

“With the increase in demand for more rural homes, we're encouraging Buckinghamshire property hunters to consider Woburn Downs for its open spaces and country parks.

“The development really does offer the best of both worlds, so whilst residents can surround themselves in green open space, they do not have to compromise essentials such as amenities and commutability.” 

The properties at Woburn Downs are being built by an award winning site team, with Site Manager Sam Foglia having recently claimed his second NHBC Pride in the Job Award.

Milton Keynes has a huge amount to offer, such as the Centre:MK, which includes a wide selection of shops, restaurants and entertainment, such as the Snozone - an inside skiing facility. The development offers a perfect combination of town and country living.

The location of the development is also ideal for working professionals. Being close to both the A5 and the M1, residents will benefit from both excellent road and rail links to key towns and cities including Oxford, Bedford and London. 

The brand new development will have a range of two, three, four and five bedroom homes available from £337,995.

The houses are very versatile for those currently working from home. They are built to a high quality which allows for energy efficient modern living. As winter closes in, those working from home will not have to worry about expensive bills.
