Characterful homes with wonderful woodland views in Wirral

A home full of character and a natural outlook are the key attributes of two special properties currently available at Woodlands Grange, in Bromborough, Wirral.

Award winning Redrow has two ‘Finmere’ designs, which not only display architectural characteristics typical of nearby Port Sunlight 19th century garden village; but also have first floor lounges with balconies overlooking the woodland that creates a green and leafy backdrop to this popular development.

Priced from £215,000, these three-bedroom mid-terrace homes are both ready to move into quickly and come with a choice of incentives as part of Redrow’s ‘re:assure’ package. They also include a detached single garage.
Elaine Mounsey, area sales manager for Redrow Homes (North West), says: “The Finmeres are a prime example of how the homes at Woodlands Grange reflect the traditional architectural features of Port Sunlight without being a complete replica or  pastiche.

“Instead, we’ve created traditional homes with a contemporary twist by incorporating a palette of  appropriate elevational treatments, such as tile hangings, render and Tudor-style boarding. These finishes are very much in keeping with the picturesque garden village and properties are also laid out along the lines of those in Port Sunlight with two and three-storey properties set together in a terrace.

“We’ve also created a focal point with an elegant square at the development’s entrance, which will eventually lead to a long tree-lined avenue. All of this is in harmony with the traditional aspects of Port Sunlight, yet at the same time our homes are designed and built for today’s lifestyles with contemporary specifications.

“Within this overall styling, each of the Finmeres is a lovely home with the added advantage of a  private rear-facing, first floor lounge that can’t be overlooked from the street and has its own private balcony with views over some pretty woodland.”

This attractive outlook belies Woodlands Grange’s proximity to the amenities of Bromborough Village, just minutes away. The development also offers easy access to the motorway network via the M53 and there are good rail links to Liverpool from the nearby Spital and Port Sunlight train stations.
Three fully furnished show homes and a view unit promote the 192 properties to be built, which include two-bedroom apartments and two, three and four-bedroom homes. Current prices are from £129,950 to £255,000.
