Downsize your way to a perfect home at Great Hall Park

Have your children flown the nest and left you with a house too big for your needs? Or do you just want a cosier home in a great location? If so then you should head down to Taylor Wimpey North West's Great Hall Park development in Ellesmere Port.

The development, which has a range of new homes on offer ideal for downsizers, provides the ideal solution for people who are finding their larger home is no longer needed and think a smaller property would be far more manageable.

Julie Harper, regional sales manager for Taylor Wimpey North West, said: "Many people discover that once their children have left home the numerous bedrooms in their larger property become surplus to requirement and living in a new smaller home makes far more sense.

"A number of the new homes at Great Hall Park would be ideal for house hunters looking to downsize - you don't need to worry about compromising on space as our homes offer plenty of well designed living accommodation and they're also low maintenance making them much easier to take care of. What's more, downsizing should help free up some equity that you'll be able to spend as you wish, whether that's putting it into savings, treating the family or splashing out on that trip of a lifetime!"

If you're thinking of downsizing, Taylor Wimpey's top tips may help to ensure a smooth move.

Have a thorough sort out - when downsizing be realistic when deciding what possessions to take with you. Make a list of essential items such as beds and wardrobes, then a list of sentimental items you can't live without. Anything left can be parted with - be ruthless! If you don't need it, don't keep it.
Don't rush - take your time deciding what to keep and what you don't need. It needn't be a big job, start sorting your belongings out a few months before you move.
Give things away - find a new home for items, donate them to charity or sell what you don't need - one person's rubbish is another person's treasure.
Think ahead - envisage where your furniture will go in your new home and if it hasn't been built yet, use the floor plans so you know exactly what you need to avoid clutter.
Don't worry about the time and effort involved - schemes such as Taylor Wimpey's Easymover* can save you time and money and ensure your move is hassle-free.
Look forward to the future - moving to a smaller home should make your life easier - so enjoy it!
