Couple end three-year house hunt to secure first home in Newbury

Jayant Kachwaha (42) and Prachi Sharma (42) are thrilled to have settled into the community, marking the end of their long house-hunting journey.
The married couple relocated from a two bedroom apartment near the marketplace in Newbury to a spacious three bedroom, semi detached home with a more modern design.
Reflecting on their journey, Jayant said:
“Owning our own home is an amazing feeling. We had been searching for years and when we came across this development online, it just felt right.
“The very high energy efficiency standards, coupled with the quality of the build and the location made it the perfect fit for us.”
Jayant, a business development director, now enjoys a convenient 20-minute drive to work in Theale, while Prachi, a dance teacher, finds comfort in the peaceful and private surroundings of their new neighbourhood.
Newbury Racecourse’s green spaces and close-knit community were key attractions for the couple, who have already made new friends.
Jayant added:
“It’s such a nice community here, both welcoming and vibrant. We love that there are open spaces around us, and it really feels like a fresh start.”
One of the standout aspects of their home buying experience was the ease of purchasing off-plan, securing their property before construction was completed.
Jayant said:
“We reserved when the house was semi-constructed, and the process was smooth and worry-free. We had the keys in our hands less than two months after reserving the property.”
The couple also benefitted from a 5% deposit contribution from David Wilson Homes, which helped them finance and secure their mortgage.
Jayant continued:
“That support made a huge difference for us, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything came together.”
When asked what they love most about their new home, Jayant pointed to its energy efficiency, the spacious and bright kitchen, and the first floor rooms that create a warm and inviting atmosphere, adding:
“The kitchen is definitely our favourite spot. It’s where we spend most of our time, chatting and planning how to add our own personality to the house.”
As they continue to settle in and personalise their new space, the couple remains certain that choosing a brand-new home was the right decision.
Jayant added:
“There’s a special charm to a modern home. It caters to the needs of all generations, and the quality and customer service from David Wilson Homes have been fantastic. We would absolutely recommend.”
