Description
Plot 157 (The Scrivener) - priced at £570,000
About the Home
Designed to impress from the very first sight, The Scrivener’s external architectural flourishes include an attractive double bay window, offering a glimpse of the wonderful living space within. This 4-bedroom home is well-suited to families looking for more space to grow into, and flexibility to adapt to ever-evolving lifestyles.
The heart of The Scrivener is its open-plan kitchen, dining and family area, which will draw family and guests together around the kitchen breakfast bar, or a dining table for more formal entertaining. French doors in the dining area open onto the rear garden, and there is room considered in the layout for a snug area to relax in comfort. The separate utility room lies off the kitchen, allowing the kitchen to be dedicated to cooking, and it has a door to the outside, which is useful on laundry days.
The separate living room is cosy and inviting, and the feature bay window adds dimension to the room, whilst drawing in lots of light. Across the hallway is the cloakroom, conveniently located by the front door, and an understairs storage cupboard completes the ground floor level.
On the first floor, bedrooms 1 and 2 are double in size, and bedroom 1 benefits from an en-suite shower room. Bedrooms 2, 3 and 4 all share use of the family bathroom. The third and fourth bedrooms are ideally sized for children’s bedrooms, or alternatively, one could be used as a private home office or a gym space. A useful storage cupboard is located on the landing, for keeping towels and bed linens neatly organised.

About Bellway Homes Ltd (North London)
A REPUTATION YOU CAN RELY ON
Over 75 years of great homes and great service
When it comes to buying your new home it is reassuring to know that you are dealing with one of the most successful companies in the country, with a reputation built on designing and creating fine houses and apartments nationwide backed up with one of the industry’s best after-care services.
In 1946 John and Russell Bell, newly demobbed, joined their father John T. Bell in a small family owned housebuilding business in Newcastle upon Tyne. From the very beginning John T. Bell & Sons, as the new company was called, were determined to break the mould. In the early 1950s Kenneth Bell joined his brothers in the company and new approaches to design layout and finishes were developed. In 1963 John T. Bell & Sons became part of the public corporate scene and the name Bellway evolved.
Continuing growth
Today Bellway is one of Britain’s largest house building companies and is continuing to grow throughout the country. Since its formation, Bellway has built and sold over 100,000 homes catering for first time buyers to more seasoned home buyers and their families. The Group’s rapid growth has turned Bellway into a multi-million pound company, employing over 2,000 people directly and many more sub-contractors. From its original base in Newcastle upon Tyne the Group has expanded in to all regions of the country and is now poised for further growth.
Our homes are designed, built and marketed by local teams operating from regional offices managed and staffed by local people. This allows the company to stay close to its customers and take key decisions about design, build, materials, planning and marketing in response to local and not national demands. A simple point, but one which we believe distinguishes Bellway.
10 Years NHBC Warranty
