It’s said that ‘GU1’ is the magic number when it comes to Guildford postcodes, and that just happens to be the address of Rushmon Homes’ Park View development. It is perhaps partly due to its ‘des res’ location that this collection of apartments has found popularity with buyers since its launch, and now Rushmon are offering fantastic deals on the last two remaining duplex apartments in the development. Both are fully furnished duplex show apartments – one with three bedrooms which is now for sale at an amazing £524,950 – a massive discount of around 18.5% (£120,050) compared to the release price in November 2007 of £645,000; the other with two bedrooms currently on sale at an incredible £403,450 – another huge discount of around 18.5% (£91,550) compared to the release price in November 2007 of £495,000. Rushmon are fully aware that values of new homes have reduced in the South East during the first half of 2008, and are now selling these unique duplex apartments at today’s prices.

As two of Park View’s show apartments, the beautifully co-ordinated carpets, curtains and furnishings are included in the price. The specification includes a climate control system, a custom designed kitchen with granite worktops and all appliances, oak veneer doors, electric underfloor heating, and a smart white bathroom and en suite. There is also underground residents’ parking, with each home having 2 spaces. For reservations taken before the end of July, service charges and ground rents will be paid by Rushmon for one year (worth over £1,300). For any buyers with a property to sell, 100% part exchange is available.

The GU1 postcode means that Park View enjoys one of the best locations in Guildford. Just across the road is lovely Stoke Park, one of the city’s biggest open spaces, where you can lose yourself in 70 glorious hectares that include picnic areas, woodland walks, ornamental Victorian gardens, a sensory garden and facilities for football, cricket and lacrosse. On the other side of the park is the highly regarded Spectrum Leisure Centre.

Also within easy reach by car or bus is the centre of Guildford, one of Surrey’s most popular centres for shopping and eating out. London Road railway station is a short walk away, offering an excellent service to London Waterloo. The pedestrianised streets include a wide selection of the better shops, including Debenhams, Heals, House of Fraser, Whistles, Brora and Jaeger, and many more in the Friary Centre. Good restaurants are easy to find too, whether you just want a coffee and a snack or something more celebratory.

The city’s connections also make it an important centre for living, leisure and work. Its position just off the A3 means it’s easy to drive to the M25 for the airports and central London, or down towards Portsmouth and the coast. London Road is the nearest station, accessible on foot or by bus. Journey times to Waterloo take about 55 minutes.

Park View’s remaining duplex apartments are for sale through local agents Mann Countrywide on 01483 562911 and Gascoigne-Pees on 01483 533366. For further information about Park View or any Rushmon Homes developments, visit www.rushmonhomes.co.uk or call 01932 586777.
