The mix of four and five bedroom detached properties at Regency Place, in the village of Tockwith, are due to be completed by the end of 2024, but the scheme is reported to be already proving popular among cash buyers who are downsizing and up-sizers seeking more space.

To be marketed by national property agents Savills, the 119-strong development is by Leeds-based Evans Homes, with 65 per cent of properties already reserved.

The guide price for the four bedroom homes start at £449,950 and the agents feel that the appeal of village living and connectivity is contributing to the high level of interest.

To help with the expected demand, Savills has appointed Jayne Gibson as a sales advisor exclusively for the Regency Place development. ​She ​will assist customers through the ​process,​ from reservation to legal completion.

Anne Haggas, head of residential development sales at Savills in Yorkshire, ​said:​ “North Yorkshire has become somewhat of a haven as a result of the pandemic for those that have either moved or are looking for a location that provides good commuter links and proximity to public spaces and local amenities.

​"​It is a combination of these factors, coupled with spacious accommodation, a very good specification and competitive pricing, that is certainly fueling interest and has led to the number of sales already agreed.
