Leading Derbyshire developer Barratt Homes has revealed why property seekers should consider Buxton for their next home.

Enjoying both village and rural life based in the Peak District, Buxton is home to both Heathfield Nook and High Peak Meadow, where property seekers will find a range of three bedroom homes ideal for a range of buyers located on Burlow Road.

Recently, figures from Zoopla stated that the High Peak in Derbyshire had seen an increase in sales by more than 30% since the Coronavirus pandemic as homebuyers are flocking to the countryside in pursuit of a different way of life[1].

Buxton is ideal for lovers of countryside and culture alike with the Peak District National Park on its doorstep and there is also an opera house in the centre. 

The Derbyshire village's other advantage is beauty. Modelled on Bath by the Dukes of Devonshire in the 18th century, it has wide avenues and grand Georgian houses making for a fine afternoon stroll.  

Buxton remains a place very much for the mind, body and soul with its elegant street scape and refined arts scene which has been transformed since the reopening of the Buxton Crescent Health Spa Hotel this autumn, perfect for an escape from the hustle and bustle of every-day life.

Not only is Barratt Homes building luxury homes in this picturesque location, but it will be bringing an abundance of public open space as well as improving infrastructure such as the sports pavilion and changing facilities. 

Michaela Lancaster, Sales Director at Barratt Homes Manchester, said: “Buxton is a fantastic place to set down roots for a range of buyers as there is plenty there for everyone.

“The A6 nearby is great for commuters as well as Stockport and Buxton train stations, making every day journeys much easier, for families there are also a range of 'good' rated schools within walking distance.”

The Barratt Homes developments based in Buxton have been designed with the local area in mind and have been built using stone and modern building techniques to deliver energy efficient homes that reduce running costs and help the environment.  

As a thank you to NHS staff, who have shown courage in the face of the Covid-19 crisis, Barratt Homes has launched a 5% Deposit Scheme contribution towards their deposit, for all NHS workers.

A detailed set of working practices and protocols has been developed by Barratt Homes so that its construction sites can operate safely and in line with the latest guidance from Government, Public Health Authorities and the Construction Leadership Council.
