First-time buyers in West Yorkshire are being encouraged to take a look at Barratt Homes' Lockwood Fields development in Chidswell, where a range of two, three and four bedroom homes are available to reserve.
Located on Owl Lane, the vibrant community at Lockwood Fields is ideal for a variety of property seekers, including prospective buyers looking to take the first step on the property ladder.
For example, the two bedroom Alverton style home at the development offers an ideal solution for those looking for their first property, but only one remains at Lockwood Fields.
This home has a ground floor entrance with stairs leading up to the first floor, where residents benefit from two large double bedrooms, with the main bedroom also having its own en suite. An open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, as well as a family bathroom can also be found on the first floor. An integral garage and driveway parking for one car completes the home.
Another home ideal for first-time buyers is the three bedroom Fulwood. For those interested in this home, there is a Fulwood show home available to tour at Lockwood Fields.
The downstairs of this property features an open-plan kitchen diner with French doors leading to the garden, and a spacious lounge. Upstairs, residents will find an en suite main bedroom, a second double bedroom and a single bedroom that could also be used as a study.
Sam Wood, Sales Director at Barratt Homes Yorkshire West, said: “Our homes at Lockwood Fields are ideal for those looking to take their first step onto the property ladder.
“With offers available like deposit contributions, alongside the development's location, we are expecting the homes to be snapped up quickly. With over 90% of homes at the development now sold, we encourage anyone interested in moving to visit the sales office to find out more.”
Lockwood Fields benefits from excellent transport links, with easy access to the M1, M621 and M62, as well as nearby Batley train station and direct bus links into Leeds. A wide range of local amenities, including shops, bars and restaurants, are close by.
Families can enjoy nearby attractions such as Ardsley Reservoir, Ponderosa Zoo and the National Coal Mining Museum. A selection of well‑regarded schools for all ages are also situated within easy reach, including options in Ossett and the surrounding areas.
