After the hugely successful launch of the first phase at Hertsmere Mews, Bellway Homes has only 16 homes available on its first phase of its Borehamwood development. Buyers from across Hertfordshire camped out for three nights to wait for the eagerly anticipated development to launch with over half of its first available homes sold on its first day. After 112 visitors attended the launch there are now only nine apartments and seven houses available to purchase from phase one.

A great example of the homes available at Hertsmere Mews is the Cushing house type – a spacious three-bedroom home spread over three floors. On the ground floor, the kitchen is complemented with Symphony fitted units and integrated appliances, including an extractor, gas hob, fan oven and fridge freezer. An open-plan living/dining room also has French doors giving access to the garden.  A cloakroom is located in the hallway. On the first floor, the second and third bedroom share a contemporary family bathroom. The entire second floor is given to the master bedroom, which boasts a dressing area and an en suite with both a bath and shower enclosure. Residents also benefit from two parking spaces.

Kevin Bowles, Sales Manager for Bellway Homes North London, comments: “We are delighted with the response from our opening launch for Hertsmere Mews, with over half of the properties already snapped up. It was positive to see so many people camping out for a Bellway home, which goes to show we have a great product and can provide the much-needed housing for the area. Due to the overwhelming interest we have received, we urge potential buyers to register their interest now on our remaining homes at this development.”
