After 35 years in their house in Leeds, husband and wife Andrew and Eileen Padmore were looking to find the perfect home to enjoy their retirement, whilst being closer to family.
Whilst searching across the West Midlands area they discovered Crest Nicholson’s Ludlow Green development. Although initially reluctant to look at a new build, retired nurse Eileen and keen musician Andrew found their perfect home after viewing the stunning 4-bedroom detached Salcombe show home.
Eileen said “As Andrew is a musician, we wanted to find a home that offered large, flexible living space so he could have a music room for his grand piano and organ. We also wanted a large garden for Grace, our English Springer Spaniel (show variety), and Henri, our 18-year-old African sulcata tortoise, to explore”.
“When we viewed the show home we were instantly impressed by the generous downstairs space, large garden, and the quality and energy efficiency of the build, meaning our bills would come down. We were also taken by how spaced out the site was, with so many trees and green spaces it had such a peaceful feel.”
That first visit ended up with them moving into Ludlow Green in March this year and they haven’t looked back since.
Eileen shared: “It instantly felt like home, and we did not experience a huge snagging list as others had warned us about with new builds. In fact, any slight problem was dealt with straight away, and the management team couldn’t have been more helpful.”
“It was a big decision to relocate after so many years, but our experience with Crest Nicholson has been absolutely amazing, and we couldn’t be happier with the whole process.”
Since moving in Eileen and Andrew have given their home that personal touch, showcasing their style with blinds, curtains, and light fittings. Their current project is transforming the garden to incorporate a pond and a fenced off area to prevent Henri eating all the grass!
They have also wasted no time meeting neighbours and getting involved with the community.
Eileen said “Everyone at Ludlow Green is so friendly and there’s a real sense of community. The town of Ludlow itself is so beautiful and offers so much to get involved with. Since moving here I have joined a book club, and Andrew and I have both got involved with the local Parish Church, where Andrew gets to play their organ!”
Located in historic Ludlow, Shropshire, Crest Nicholson’s Ludlow Green development is a superb collection of 3, 4 and 5 bedroom new build homes with 27.5 acres of green space to explore and enjoy.
