Just two properties remain for sale at Hollies Farm in Hartford, Redrow's development of new homes in Cheshire. The pair of five-bedroom homes still available, both from Redrow's acclaimed New Heritage Collection of property designs, are luxuriously appointed family homes in a perfect location for commuters to Chester, Liverpool or Manchester.

"Located in Vale Royal, close to some of Cheshire's most exclusive towns and villages, Hollies Farm has been a popular choice from day one," says Elaine Mounsey, sales manager for Redrow Homes (NW). "Visitors have fallen in love with the semi-rural location and the premium quality homes that offer the best of old and new. Because it's been such a success some people may think they have left it too late to be part of this new homes success story, but that's not the case - we still have two five-bedroom properties to sell."

The 'Blenheim' house, at 520,000, is set out over two storeys, with a detached double garage. Everyday family life is likely to revolve around the open-plan kitchen/breakfast room, that not only has stylish units and a full range of integrated appliances, but plenty of room for an informal meal, seating and a TV. It opens out onto the garden, a real boon in summer, and has a separate utility room to help keep clutter to a minimum. A dining room and a lounge mean there are lots of options for entertaining and having private space for working or relaxing.

The master bedroom not only has a beautifully decorated en-suite shower room, but the added luxury of a dressing area with built-in wardrobes. Bedroom two also has an en-suite shower room, with three more double bedrooms sharing a family bathroom.

The 'Cheltenham', priced 485,995, is a three-storey design that is now "build complete" and ready to move into, bar the finishing touches that the buyer will choose. The ground floor is not dissimilar to the 'Blenheim', with its kitchen/breakfast/family room, utility room, lounge and dining room. On the first floor, the master bedroom has en-suite facilities and a walk-in wardrobe and there's a Jack and Jill bathroom shared between two double bedrooms. There's also a study overlooking the rear garden. On the second floor are two more large bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Hartford is right on the doorstep of the amenities of Northwich and has good local schools. It has two convenient rail stations - Hartford and Greenbank - and is ideally placed for drivers, with the M6 and M56 both within 20 minutes of home. Manchester Airport is little over half an hour away. A journey to Manchester or Liverpool takes around 45 to 50 minutes by car.

Buyers for either home have the option of using Redrow's Mastermove service, where it finds a reputable local agent to market the old home, liaises with the agent throughout the sale and even pays the estate agency fees.
