Development updates

A quieter pace of life at Priory Fields

- 26 Aug 20

Since lockdown, there has been a surge in interest at Bovis Homes’ Priory Fields development, as homebuyers search for a more rural property.

Located off Wookey Hole Road on the edge of Wells, the development is set in an enviable location in the heart of Somerset – close to one of England’s smallest cities and beautiful surrounding countryside.

Sue Scholfield, sales and marketing director at Bovis Homes, commented: “Outside space has become a priority for many. The current situation has emphasised what’s important to us all and lots of buyers are wanting to move to a larger property in a more rural location. Also, a home office or a fourth bedroom – which could be used as a study – is being frequently requested.

“The stamp duty holiday is encouraging homebuyers to act now, especially with the support offered by good mortgage rates. Priory Fields has always been a popular choice but we’ve seen a real increase in enquiries and reservations this summer.

“Lockdown showed us you have to love where you live and the development is in a great semi-rural location, it offers a quieter pace of life but you can also walk into Wells and enjoy all its amenities.”

Named after the old railway station on the Strawberry Line, Priory Fields currently features three and four bedroom homes from £281,000 to £467,000, plus two thatched properties.

The Juniper four bedroom home showcases stunning views across open countryside and includes a large open plan kitchen diner with patio doors leading out to the garden. There is also a spacious master bedroom with an en-suite shower room, a practical downstairs study and a garage.
