Customer Stories: Mark, living in the Thames at The Alders, Skipton

Say hello to Mark, a new resident of ‘The Thames’ at The Alders in Skipton

“I have been wanting to move for four years and never really thought about new builds. I saw the property on Rightmove and rang your Sales Advisor, Karen, who made me instantly relaxed. She was approachable and professional“.  

Mark

What factors were most important to you when choosing a new home?

I wanted to stay in Skipton and be close to work yet in the countryside. The Alders ticked these boxes. Part Exchange also removed a lot of the stress. I also wanted a plot with lots of greenery and an edge-of-development location.

Why did you choose a three-storey home like the Thames?

I was sold on the layout before. The reason why I wanted a three-storey home here was the views from the top floor. I’ve made one of the rooms on the top floor an office and it’s a pleasure to work from there. The things that stood out for me were the garden size, spacious rooms and I like the attached garage.

How was your experience of the purchasing process with Skipton Properties?

I honestly expected it to be stressful, but I was wrong. It was relaxed. I particularly enjoyed coming to my various appointments to see my home at different stages of build. Any minor issues I raised before completion were dealt with before I moved in. I was expecting the new build ‘stigma’ but I was incorrect.

Is there anything you would improve?

I can’t think of anything and I also don’t mind being on a live development!
