“THE best service, the best specification and the best design,’ – that’s what Hector Walker had to say about his seventh new build house purchase.

The 47-year-old has just moved in to a five-bedroom home at Rowland’s Worrall Gardens, in Widnes – and the father-of-four couldn’t be happier.

“I always buy new, I don’t like the thought of living in someone’s old house and after going through the process six times I can wholeheartedly say that Rowland’s staff, product and approach is by far the best I have ever experienced,” he explained.

Hector, a partner in Ormskirk Physiotherapy Centre, is one of the first residents at Worrall Gardens, a development of luxury detached homes, townhouses and apartments in the sought after Norlands Lane location.

With a growing brood and the need for more bedroom and bathroom space, he traded up from a three-bedroom mews home to a four-bedroom Toulouse townhouse, attracted by the property’s three levels of living space.

“The Toulouse is the ideal family home, offering a lot of variety and a huge amount of space for a semi-detached property. I loved the idea of three-storey living – it’s important for my children to be able to do their own thing and the property provides encapsulated space where they can be independent.
“Being very much a ‘kitchen’ family, the large kitchen on the ground floor is ideal. It’s such a relaxed environment and the real ‘hub’ of the house. We tend to head straight for there and catch up on the days’ events. The garage has become a games room – complete with table tennis table and darts board, perfect for a games mad family and for keeping the house clutter free.

“I think a house should represent how you live and the Toulouse does just that. It’s flexible, totally up to date and easy to maintain and can change with the family’s needs. It’s the best new build house I’ve ever bought.”

Hector has utilised the Toulouse’s study as a fifth bedroom – and Jessica, 19, Adam, 16, Elizabeth, 14 and Emily, 10, have already staked their claim to their designated space.

Families looking for space, style and flexibility in a new home will find a selection of Toulouse townhouses now available at Worrall Gardens, with prices starting from £239,995.

Executive five-bedroom detached homes are also available, currently priced from £435,000. Buyers looking for a smaller, but no less well-proportioned home will find the three-bedroom detached Rhone available from £349,995.

Young professionals who desire the apartment living lifestyle can buy a two-bedroom property for under £125,000.

A choice of five per cent deposit paid, part exchange, stamp duty and legal fees paid or carpets, curtains and light fittings are available for a limited period on selected plots.

An outstanding five-bedroom detached show home has recently been unveiled at Worrall Gardens and is open on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays from 10.30am to 5pm and on Saturdays and Sundays from 10.30am to 5.30pm. For further information contact 0151 424 6935 or visit www.rowland.co.uk
