From hesitant to happy homeowner:
Couple fall for Jubilee Green’s traditional charm
Andrea and Jonathan Barraclough have found their dream home at Jubilee Green, a traditional-style new development by Morrish Homes located in the village of Charlton Marshall, Dorset. The couple moved into their detached three-bedroom home, complete with a charming flint and brick front elevation and modern interiors, during the summer.
Initially, Andrea wasn’t looking for a new-build property. However, after discovering the home at Jubilee Green and being won over by its picturesque yet convenient setting, her mind was quickly changed. “I wasn’t actively looking for a new build, but as soon as I saw this house, I knew it was perfect for us,” said Andrea.
For Andrea and Jonathan, the house struck the ideal balance between classic architecture and contemporary, light-filled living spaces. They chose a beautifully presented three-bedroom, double-fronted home, offering well-balanced accommodation for modern living.
Upstairs, the spacious master bedroom benefits from an ensuite shower room, while two further bedrooms share a family bathroom. On the ground floor, the property features a dual aspect lounge, creating a light and airy living space throughout the day. The kitchen is thoughtfully laid out and is complemented by a separate utility room and a cloakroom/WC, and a separate dining room provides a formal space for meals and entertaining. Outside, the south-west facing walled garden ticked all Andrea and Jonathan’s boxes.
Homes at Jubilee Green enjoy a peaceful rural location, while still being within easy reach of the nearby market towns of Blandford Forum and Wimborne – either by car, or by bus. With good access to the A35, homeowners are also well connected to Poole, Bournemouth and beyond.
Andrea praised the high level of support she received from the Morrish Homes team throughout the buying process. Andrea said: “The Morrish Homes Sales Manager answered all my questions and the whole process was fantastic. Because we purchased early in the build, we had so many customisation options. From interior colours and carpets to a breakfast bar and double oven, I was able to personalise our home to suit our tastes.”
She continued, “The stress often associated with moving was simply taken away. The Sales Manager’s knowledge, combined with the quality of build, made the entire experience extremely positive.”
When asked to sum up her experience with Morrish Homes in three words, Andrea said, “Professional, Helpful, and Efficient.”
Now happily settled at Jubilee Green, Andrea and Jonathan are looking forward to designing and landscaping their rear garden, adding their own personal touch to the outdoor space of their new home.
