JON AND KELLY SNAP UP A NEW HOME AT TAYLOR WIMPEY’S KINGSMEAD DEVELOPMENT!
Moving house is always a big decision and for Kelly and Jon Greenaway, it was a choice they did not want to rush into. In fact, the couple spent 12 months wondering whether to buy a new-build or take on a renovation project – that is, until they discovered Taylor Wimpey’s Kingsmead development in Caerphilly. Te couple had lived in their previous home in Caerphilly for 15 years when they decided it was time to move, and in October they took the plunge and traded up to the fabulous four-bedroom detached ‘Petford’ house at Kingsmead. With plenty more space and room to grow for them and their two children, Kelly and Jon celebrated their first Christmas in their new home! Kelly says: “We spent a while looking for the perfect house, we couldn’t decide whether we wanted to ‘do up’ an older property or buy new. “We looked at the Kingsmead development and chatted with the Sales Executive a few times – stepping up the property ladder is such a big decision and
we didn’t want to rush. But we eventually realised that buying new would be so much easier, especially as neither of us are any good at DIY! “Once we’d made the decision everything moved really quickly. We wanted to be settled in in time for Christmas and we’ve managed that thanks to Taylor Wimpey!” Kingsmead’s great location in the bustling town of Caerphilly
was what initially caught Jon and Kelly’s attention, however it was the spacious design and carefully-planned layout of the ‘Petford’ that helped seal the deal. “We have two children and didn’t want them to move schools so Kingsmead is perfect for us,” continues Kelly. “We really liked the large open-plan kitchen/dining room in the ‘Petford’ and the four bedrooms
also appealed to us.” Aſter
securing their dream
plot, Jon and Kelly enjoyed the process of making the home their own with Taylor Wimpey’s range of interior Options. Jon says: “Once we had bought a new home, we wanted to start afresh, so we sold all of our old furniture and spent a long time choosing which upgrades we wanted to make the property feel personal to us.”
Te family are now settling into their wonderful new home at Kingsmead, and both Kelly and Jon are delighted with the build quality, the extra space and the aſtercare they’ve received from Taylor Wimpey. Kelly adds: “Te process of buying our home was really easy, Taylor Wimpey dealt with everything and we even got to meet the builders and the Site Manager. Te journey from securing the plot to moving in was much quicker than we expected and we couldn’t be happier!” Tere’s a stunning selection of three and four-bedroom houses currently for sale at Kingsmead, priced from just £225,995.

Housebuilder Continues With Team Expansion
A Swansea-based housebuilder is continuing its growth with the addition of two new sales trainees and a commercial director. Persimmon Homes West Wales has brought in Danielle Richards and Amy Daniel as trainee sales advisers, while Jason Martin is the newest face at the Penllergaer office at director level. Seventeen-year-old Danielle, of Church Village, has joined the business straight from school and is learning the ropes at the Cae Hendre site in Bridgend. She said: “My mother has a background in letting property so that sparked an interest in the industry. “I am really enjoying it so far. Cae Hendre is a busy site so I’m learning fast. I’m constantly talking to different people and it’s great to help people find their perfect home.” Amy is 22 and lives in Brynmill in Swansea. “I worked in a pub for three years but wanted to get into a job which could develop into a career,” she said. “It has only been a few weeks but I feel as though I’ve learnt a lot already. My time in the pub has helped as it taught me how to engage with customers. “My aim is to keep progressing and to eventually have my

own site.” Meanwhile, Jason Martin has been promoted to Persimmon Homes West Wales’
new commercial
director, moving over from the East Wales region where he was head of commercial for three years. Father-of-two Jason, who has previously worked for 24 years with other housebuilders, said he was relishing the challenge ahead. “I moved from Persimmon’s East Wales region to West in September and I am enjoying the challenge,” said the 46-year-old who lives in Cardiff. “It’s good to see that we’re in a strong position from a sales perspective, customer satisfaction surveys are on the rise and we have the makings of great commercial team. “We have a healthy land bank with a number of new outlets coming in the new year. In 2017 I’m looking to bolster the contractor base and to put steps in place to control costs more effectively moving forward.” Elsewhere, there have been a number of promotions with Gerraint Tomas moving from site manager to contracts manager, while Gemma Williams and Sophie Morris are now sales advisers aſter completing the trainee programme.
