For most families, finding a dream home is no easy task, so when Victoria and Tyrone Johns discovered their ideal three bedroom house at Annington's Redruth development, they were disappointed to find it was only available for rent. With their hearts set on the house the couple decided to wait for it to become available for sale and three and a half years on, they are delighted to be the proud owners of their dream home.

Tyrone, who works as a Technical Officer for a modern housing solutions company commented: “The houses in Redruth caught my attention when I was undertaking maintenance work as part of my job and at the time they were rented out by Annington. I knew straight away that I had found a fantastic property and got in touch with Annington to see if we could buy it, but unfortunately it was only available for rent. We remained hopeful and luckily three years later it came onto the market; we quickly snapped it up and are delighted with our new home.”

Victoria, who works as a Local Government Officer commented: “We have two children; Jade who is 18 and Flynn who is three so we wanted a spacious home that was close to good schools and colleges but also convenient  for commuting. We knew we would never find another home which ticked all the right boxes so it was really worth the wait.”

Victoria continued: “We are in a quiet and peaceful location, yet it is so easy to get around. It takes me about 15 minutes to commute to work and Jade can get the bus to college from outside our house.

“Our last home was on a noisy main road and the rooms were much smaller, our new home has great open plan floor spaces and a large garden so we are over the moon.”

Tyrone added: “We are planning on living here indefinitely as we love it so much and agreed that it was really was worth the wait.”
