Only minutes from the rest of the world

A base in an idyllic village that’s close to an airport is a must for the generation of ‘lock up and leaves’ who spend the majority of their time abroad.

The good news is that Redrow’s Poppy Meadow development in Long Itchington certainly fits the bill with an international airport only eight miles away.

Suzanne Irons, sales director for Redrow Homes (South Midlands) says: “Our Poppy Meadow development is set in the tranquil village of Long Itchington, near Southam and would suit any high-flyers who often travel abroad on business or pleasure and are in need of a base in England with good rail and air links.

“With smaller homes among the available plots, Poppy Meadow is ideal for home owners looking for ‘lock up and leave’ properties in between trips abroad. Whether you have a villa in the South of France or a cottage in the Scottish highlands, having a base with an airport so close is too good an opportunity to miss out on.

“The development is perfectly positioned less than a 15-minute drive from Coventry airport, and the stylish homes we’re building, coupled with a desirable address such as Long Itchington means everyone should find what they’re looking for here.”

Poppy Meadow launched towards the end of 2005 and is already proving successful thanks to the wide mix of homes available and the sought-after address. Redrow is building everything from bungalows, to three and four-bedroom houses and one and two-bedroom apartments.

Among the new homes now on release is the Oaken, a one-bedroom apartment with open plan kitchen/living area and double bedroom with fitted wardrobes. It’s priced at just £135,995, while two-bedroom apartments start at £159,995.

There are also three and four-bedroom properties available from £239,995.

A brand new detached, three-storey Webburn show home, styled by Redrow Interior Design, is also now open and is giving home buyers a helping hand in visualising how their own property could look if they buy one of the larger homes at this exclusive development.

Suzanne continues: “The homes enjoy the best of both worlds; the rural calm of a historic village and only a short journey of eight (have to spell numbers from one to nine) miles to Leamington Spa or a short commute to Banbury or Coventry. With great links to the M40 and A45/M45 and Coventry airport under 15 minutes away, you really would have the world at your finger tips.”
