Outhill View, the latest opportunity in popular residential park living, is taking shape near the historic hamlet of Outhill near Studley Castle. The developers said 10 of the 55 luxury and energy-efficient homes have already been sold and, with principal construction underway from this week, early bird buyers can expect to be in their new homes by Christmas. There has been a lot of demand (Image: Handout) David Cotter, sales manager at Outhill View, said: "We have almost been overwhelmed by the amount of interest our new development has attracted, but perhaps that's not all that surprising given its fantastic country location surrounded by green pastures, leafy view and charming country lanes.

"Residential park living has become a very attractive choice for many people especially those seeking an environment which offers peace of mind in the company of like-minded friends and neighbours." With a modern, fully fitted kitchen and integrated appliances, as well as a comfortable living room and two bedrooms including one with an en-suite, the properties will be ready to move in without any need for decoration or updating. The properties also come with a manufacturer's guarantee.

Buyers can also add value to their properties with touches of luxury such as hot tubs, balconies, decking and outdoor furniture. They will sell at prices starting from £250,000 with the developers offering up to 100 per cent for part exchange. The development is near Studley Castle (Image: Handout) Rest.
