October 2017: Demand has been high at the recent off plan launch of Clearview Homes’ latest development, The Paddocks, off Charville Lane in Hayes, Middlesex. With easy transport links into central London and open farmland and green recreational spaces close by, it’s no wonder that five of the fourteen homes have already been reserved off plan.

The Paddocks features fourteen, one bedroom apartments and two and three bedroom homes in a well-served neighbourhood. The homes are ideally located for Crossrail links which opens in 2018, with the modernisation of Hayes and Harlington station as well as services from Hillingdon and Northolt stations. Hayes town centre is also undergoing a £6 million transformation to improve resident and visitor experience.

Shelley West, Sales and Marketing Director for Clearview Homes comments, “The homes at The Paddocks are ideal for first time buyers and families looking for a high quality new home, with good communications links. We are delighted with the response we have received so far and expect demand to continue to remain strong.

“A report by the CBRE[1] has also predicted that house prices will increase by an average of 3.3% per year around Crossrail stations, which makes it an ideal time to snap up a property at The Paddocks before it is too late.”

Each of the homes at The Paddocks features professionally designed kitchen and integrated appliances, including a Neff oven and gas hob, dishwasher and fridge/freezer. The bathroom and en-suites feature contemporary white sanitary ware. There is also allocated parking for all homes.

Ross Parsons, from selling agents Peter Rolfe continues, “We are delighted to be working with Clearview Homes at The Paddocks. The secluded development is set in the most idyllic part of Hayes and just a short walk from Hayes School as well as excellent communication links, making it an ideal choice for first time buyers, downsizers and those with young families.  Clearview Homes is renowned for building high quality developments and The Paddocks is no exception.”

The Paddocks is only six miles away from London Heathrow airport and around 15 miles from Oxford Circus. There are several ways to commute to the capital, with Hayes & Harlington station, West Drayton station and Hillingdon station easily accessible. Buses are available from Charville Lane to Hayes and Harlington station meaning it is not essential to own a car.

Hillingdon is on London Underground’s Metropolitan and Piccadilly lines, while Northolt is on the Central Line taking about 30 minutes to Oxford Circus. Crossrail will slash journey times to London in 2018, with Bond Street taking 20 minutes and London Heathrow Airport’s terminals 2 and 3 just one stop away.

Hayes has a good mix of shops, both familiar high street names and independents, as well as public houses, bars and restaurants. Uxbridge, about three miles away, includes Sainsburys and Lidl. For serious fashion shopping, Westfield is around ten miles.

The Paddocks is close to several schools, with nearby Charville primary within one mile and Ryefield Primary, Swakeleys Secondary School for Girls and Abbotsfield Secondary School close by. Brunel University London is about 2.5 miles away. Recently opened in Hayes, the Global Academy has welcomed its first students in the broadcast and digital media industry.

There are many beautiful and accessible places for fun, fitness and social activities, parks, nature trails, cycling routes, as well as the Grand Union Canal where town and country meet. Lake Farm Country Park, Stockley Park Golf Course, Hillingdon Golf Course, and the 20- acre Barra Hall Park, with its purpose-built open air theatre and outdoor gym are among the attractions.

Other attractions include The Beck Theatre in Hayes, Compass Theatre in Ickenham, cinemas in Uxbridge and Ruislip, and Hillingdon Sports & Leisure Centre. There is a lively calendar of local events, the annual Hayes Carnival, with its diverse and colourful displays, being a must-see.

Prices start from £275,000 for the one bedroom apartments, from £399,000 for a two bedroom home and from £475,000 for a three bedroom home. For further information please call selling agent Peter Rolfe on 020 8573 7320 or visit www.clearviewhomes.co.uk
