IN THE build-up to Christmas, developer George Wimpey has unwrapped a new showhouse in Basingstoke.

Featuring crisp winter whites, with accents of cool blue, as its interior design theme, the “Opal” design is a four-bedroomed house for family living.

The showhome is on the developer’s Marnel Park scheme, which is part of the regeneration of Popley, and is priced at £324,995.

A traditional double-fronted house, with full-length bay windows to the living areas, the “Opal” has a reception room running the full depth of the property and a kitchen with an open-plan dining-cum-family room. A utility room and cloakroom complete the ground-floor accommodation.

Upstairs, the master bedroom has an en suite, and three more bedrooms share the family bathroom.

Also available at Marnel Park are one-bedroomed houses starting from £131,995, two-bedroomed homes from £175,995, three-bedroomed properties from £264,995, and other four-bedroomed properties from £279,995.

Two-bedroomed apartments are also available on the development and prices are from £154,995.

For those with a property to sell, an Easymover scheme provides a range of money and time-saving incentives, including assistance with marketing the old home and having estate agent’s fees paid.

Basingstoke town centre is just 10 minutes away from the development.
