Brand New Showhome for Thomas Mitchell Homes

Thomas Mitchell Homes is delighted to announce it has opened the doors of its new four-bedroom show home at Oakwood development in the picturesque Village of Cumbernauld.  This charming development offers nine home styles from two bedroom flats to five bedroomed town houses.   House prices start from £203,500.

Situated on the doorstep of ancient woodlands, Oakwood owes its name to the impressive population of grand trees that abound in Cumbernauld. The surrounding area is considered to be of high wildlife importance with birds such as green woodpeckers and jays a common sight. Oakwood not only provides a vast recreational space to relax and enjoy the peace and quiet, but is also an ideal location for traveling to and from the city.

Oakwood comprises a mix of two bedroom apartments and three, four and five bedroom three-storey townhouses and each is named after famous Scots.

Showcasing this stylish portfolio of spacious family homes is the ‘Forsyth’. On entering the property, the viewer is greeted by an airy entrance hall, floored using the latest amtico ‘grassweave‘ design in mocca and vanilla and furnished in luxurious pale walnut. Accessed from the hall is the spacious utility room - washing machine, tumble dryer and sink – which leads into the kitchen.

Solid, grand, double oak wood doors lead from the hall to the open-plan living area. Decorated with toffee and charcoal tones, this extensive room is stunningly light owing to four double-glazed French doors. A large corner sofa in polished metallic velvet creates a modern family relaxing area. The adjoining dining area again features pale walnut furniture with a darker high-impact ebony animal print wall as a backdrop for cosy entertaining, which is echoed in the fabric of the dining chairs.

The stylish, elongated kitchen features a stainless steel oven and hob and integrated dishwasher. Carbon-metallic wall tiles are complemented by subtle downlighters and chrome-effect ironmongery, whilst the wood-effect worktops and complementary floor tiles complete the contemporary feel.

The staircase from the hall is supported by solid oak balustrades and carpeted in sumptuously soft cream, leading to the spacious hall upstairs. Bedroom one echoes the cool neutral tones of the ground floor using a striking silver, black and white geometric wallpaper with matching bedlinen and glamorous mirrored furniture. Subtle, sliding wooden doors lead to a luxurious en suite bathroom in crisp white, complete with wc, wash-hand basin and fully tiled electric shower.

Bedroom two is another sizeable double bedroom using an equally distinctive feature wallpaper in vivid fuschia, white and lime - offset with simple white linens and furniture. Bedroom three, which is dressed as a single study bedroom, features vibrant turquoise with black and lipstick pink silk and black walnut furnishings. The last bedroom on this floor is shown as a study for those wishing to work from home. A sharp blend of grey, scarlet and orange tones create an exciting hideaway.

The family bathroom is tastefully tiled in white ceramic and charcoal-coloured tiled flooring. The electric shower, wc and wash basin are ornamented in crisp white modern sanitary ware, which complements the chrome ironmongery and the sleek strip of charcoal tiling on the shower wall.

The top floor contains the best-kept secret of this house – a truly opulent master suite. This expansive room would also serve as an ideal home cinema, chill out zone, fitness room or entertaining area. The main wall features a ceramic wall panel designed which links with the adjoining en suite bathroom and so creates a ‘boutique hotel’ feel. The king size bed is dressed in sumptuous flocked silks and velvets and ultra glossy metallic accessories to create a sophisticated and elegant retreat. Large double mirrored sliding wardrobes provide plentiful storage.

Stuart Rennie, Sales and Marketing director of Thomas Mitchell Homes, said: “We are delighted to invite home buyers to view this stylish show home. These homes offer fully flexible accommodation, setting a new standard of living in Cumbernauld, and the Forsyth show home demonstrates how family-friendly these properties really are.”
