Avant Homes has released a new range of family homes for sale at its £42m, 179-home Smithy Wood Gate development in Dodworth, near Barnsley

 
Located off Calver Lane, the development comprises a mix of one-, two-, three- and four-bedroom homes and features 11 of Avant Homes’ practically designed, energy efficient house types.
 
Prices for the newly released homes at Smithy Wood Gate range from £239,995 for a ‘two-bedroom plus’ semi-detached Ripley house type, so called as it has an additional upstairs room offering flexibility as a live/work area, to £359,995 for a four-bedroom detached Wentbridge.
 
Selected plots at the development are also available with a range of incentives including part exchange, £1,000 legal fees paid, five per cent deposit paid, £10,000 towards extras and My Move Made Easy, where the housebuilder will help a buyer sell their existing home.
 
Of the newly released homes for sale, the four-bedroom detached Wentbridge house type is an ideal family home and a strong example of the housebuilder’s ability to deliver flexible spaces for modern living.
 
The ground floor of the Wentbridge features a large living room with the hallway leading to an open-plan kitchen and dining area that leads out to the rear garden through French doors. The downstairs is completed by a storage cupboard and a WC.
 
Upstairs, the Wentbridge has a large main bedroom with an ensuite shower room whilst another double bedroom and two single bedrooms are served by the family bathroom. The Wentbridge also benefits from an internal garage.
 
Interested buyers can now visit the new four-bedroom detached Wentbridge showhome and the four-bedroom detached Horbury view home at Smithy Wood Gate to experience Avant Homes’ practically designed, energy efficient homes first hand.
 
Smithy Wood Gate is being delivered by Avant Homes West Yorkshire. The regional operating business’s managing director, Richard Hosie, said: “Smithy Wood Gate has proven hugely popular since its launch, so we’re pleased to be releasing this new range of family homes for sale.
 
“Dodworth has great links to Sheffield and Leeds, as well as being a stone’s throw away from the natural beauty of the nearby Trans Pennine Trail, making it a great place to call home.
 
“Anyone interested in the new family homes available at Smithy Wood Gate should visit the development and speak to our sales team to find out about joining this growing community.”
