Experience life on the edge

A brand new show home is opening at The Edge, Redrow’s unique development that offers the unusual combination of city-style chic and a ‘village’ location.

The appropriately named development of apartments and versatile three-storey townhouses is a charismatic and cutting edge venture on the fringes of the village centre at Dickens Heath, near Solihull.

The doors open at 12noon on Friday, September 1, when visitors will be welcomed into the beautiful three-storey, four-bedroom townhouse.

Designed to suit a young professional couple, the house is a testament to the versatility of three-storey living. Where the rooms on the second floor may have been used as bedrooms, and perhaps a games room for the children, the new show home has a home gym and a office/spare room, as well as a spacious guest bedroom.

The ground floor of the house features a kitchen, a stylish living room and a cloakroom. On the second floor is the gym room and home office/bedroom, as well as the guest bedroom. The top floor, meanwhile, is home to the spacious master bedroom with its desirable walk-through dressing area and en-suite shower room.

Adjoining the master bedroom is a large front-facing terrace, providing an alternative outdoor area which, together with the top floor, is a great place to relax.

Redrow’s chosen interior designers, Connections in Design have created the perfect home for style conscious young professionals.

Dawn Kitchener, managing director of Connections in Design said: "We had in mind a couple that work in Solihull or Birmingham, who drive a named car like a BMW or a Mercedes and want the home to match.

"The styling is a mix of contemporary colours and classic glamour. We went with a subtle turquoise theme, set off by a lot of taupe and chocolate brown colours in the furniture.

"Textured fabrics were selected for the house to give impact and flair while the solid paint colours give a modern look."

Dickens Heath comprises an assortment of homes, ranging from expansive, six-bedroom detached family homes to high quality apartments, plus everything in between.

Current availability at The Edge includes a range of one and two-bedroom apartments, perfect for empty nesters or first time buyers, priced from just £149,950, or the luxurious three-storey townhouses that offer a versatile approach to contemporary living, priced from £279,950.

Come and explore the stylish new show home from 12noon on Friday, September 1 at The Edge, Rumbush Lane, Dickens Heath Village.
