'WYE' not work from home at Dandara's Parc Jiwbili
With more than a third of employers reporting an increase in staff working from home compared to last year according to the latest research from Acas*, it’s no surprise that Dandara Wales has noticed a big rise in enquiries from buyers looking for a property with space for a home office.
The independent housebuilder has just released a collection of new homes at Parc Jiwbili in Rogerstone, Newport with flexible floorplans designed to make life easier for those working from home either full-time or a couple of days a week.
These include the Wye, a spacious four bedroom detached home with a generous living area and a study to the front of the property. This beautiful double fronted home has an impressive open-plan kitchen/dining and family room at the rear with French doors leading out to the garden. There’s also a separate utility room, WC and understairs storage on the ground floor.
Upstairs there are four double bedrooms, with an ensuite to bedroom one, a separate family bathroom and additional storage. This home also benefits from a single garage and allocated parking. There are currently three Wye homes available to buy.
Martin Smith, Managing Director for Dandara Wales & West, commented: “Working from home isn’t going away anytime soon and the latest homes at Parc Jiwbili lend themselves very well to hybrid working. The Wye in particular is a terrific work from home property with the study handily placed at the front of the house, so no rushing from the kitchen to get the doorbell before it disrupts an online meeting.
“Hybrid working not only cuts down on commuting time but it is also better for the environment according to new research in the US** which says that even working from home even two days a week cuts down on emissions by up to 29% compared to working on site.”
A range of four bedroom homes are currently available at Parc Jiwbili with prices from £426,995.
Parc Jiwbili is the first development in Wales for Dandara, which is one of the UK’s most respected independent housebuilders and has been building homes for more than thirty years, with long-established divisions in Scotland, England and the Channel Islands. It brought the Dandara brand to Wales in 2021, after spotting a gap in the market for high quality new build homes in desirable locations, offering the latest in energy efficient and sustainable design.
Situated just five minutes’ drive from Junction 28 of the M4 motorway, providing easy access for commuters to Swansea, Cardiff and Bristol, Parc Jiwbili comprises 40 new, high specification homes offering beautifully designed living spaces with modern touches throughout.
For families, there is an excellent choice of primary and secondary schooling options in the area, including Jubilee Park Primary School on the doorstep. Residents will be able to enjoy the benefits of being close to the city whilst having plenty of green space on their doorstep. Rogerstone offers many popular eateries, shops and bars set against a beautiful countryside backdrop.
