The epitome of elegant living in Edgbaston

Fri, Apr 25th 2008, 15:15

It’s easy to see why over half of the 344 properties available at Redrow’s Hemisphere have already sold. Boasting an enviable location just half a mile away from the thriving centre of Birmingham and set between Warwickshire Cricket Club and the beautiful Cannon Hill Park, it offers a fantastic combination of city living and suburban bliss.

But it’s not just the fantastic location that is attracting home hunters, Hemisphere is also appealing to those who want a superior and stress-free lifestyle, which is supplied via a 24-hour concierge service and the fact that external maintenance and communal grounds are all taken care of.

The concierge is responsible for the general upkeep of the building and is always on hand to help out with services such as taking delivery of parcels and helping residents with meter readings.

And for extra peace of mind there are secure electronic entry systems for the main foyer and an underground car park, with automatic lighting, which can only be accessed with an electronic fob.

Pauline Turnbull, sales director for Redrow Homes (Midlands) says: “Hemisphere is now an established destination for buyers who want the best from their new home.

“It most definitely has the edge when it comes to luxurious apartment living and is one of the hottest postcodes in town right now. In fact, when the scheme went on sale, the first phase was snapped up in one day.

“We’re now building on the venture’s winning combination of top rate specification and first class location by opening a dedicated customer service centre within the development. The centre will be occupied by a site manager who can offer after-sales care, help iron out any problems and deal with queries. It’s another example of how much we value our customers and strive to provide the best possible service.”

The wide range of one and two-bedroom apartments available at Hemisphere typically offer a flexible open-plan living area, allowing homeowners to be really creative with the way they use their space, as well as generous bedrooms, some with en-suite facilities. A selection of apartments also offer balconies with views over Edgbaston, perfect for sitting out and watching the world go by.

Current prices at Hemisphere start at £124,995 for a one-bedroom apartment, while two-bedroom apartments are available from £194,995.
And, as if the beautiful setting, convenient location and competitive prices aren’t enough to tempt buyers, Redrow is also offering a range of tailor-made incentives on selected plots at the housing venture, available under the umbrella of ‘re:assure from Redrow’.

Several of the incentives available are ideal for the first time buyer, including 5% deposit paid, or £500 a month towards mortgage payments for a year, or a flooring and furniture  package worth up to £10,000.

Buyers interested in purchasing a Redrow property can also access expert advice from independent financial advisers and mortgage specialists, who can recommend a variety of products to suit individual needs. From advice on ‘mortgaging with a mate’ to co-buying with parents, help, advice and guidance is available at every stage of the buying process.

Hemisphere is ideal for home buyers at all stages of the property ladder. First time buyers love the fact that it’s just a stone’s throw from the city centre, while downsizers looking for a home with less maintenance but no restriction on their busy lifestyles have also snapped up plots. Investors are also placing Hemisphere in their property portfolios, as well as cricket fans who have been bowled over by the proximity to the legendary cricket club.
