Bringing a smart, contemporary aesthetic to its small patch of Gloucestershire countryside, Mill Brook Drive in Norton, a new development from the house building division of local firm KW Bell Group, Bell Homes, offers an impressive wish list for house hunters.
SoGlos looks at the best features of its six homes, from stylish design to their ideal location, offering residents peace and quiet just a short distance from key amenities.
The Lowdown
Situated on the A38 between Tewkesbury, Gloucester and Cheltenham, in the village of Norton, Mill Brook Drive consists of four detached homes with four bedrooms; one three-bedroom detached coach home; and one-three bedroom detached bungalow.
With stunning views out towards Gloucester, the Cotswolds and the Forest of Dean over the River Severn, the surrounding area is an idyllic location for countryside walking and cycling, while Norton itself offers amenities including a primary school, village hall, sports pitch, a family-friendly pub and a church.
Exterior highlights
The homes at Millbrook have been designed to have a high-end, contemporary exterior look, using energy efficient materials that compliment its countryside setting.
Four-bedroom homes The Kensington and The Windsor, along with three-bedroom bungalow The Windsor, have a classic red brick exterior; four-bed detached homes The Winchester and The Buckingham are finished with stylish timber cladding; and three-bed coach house The Lambeth combines elements of the two.
All of the properties feature modern looking, black-framed windows and doors, with each boasting a single garage and additional parking space, too.
Interior highlights
Inside, all of the homes offer spacious living areas and bedrooms, each offering unique features. All have large open plan kitchen, dining and living areas, with en-suite bathrooms and dressing areas connected to some of the bedrooms. Utility space is common across all of the properties, while some also include a pantry and upstairs study.
