They say home is where the heart is and now it’s where the height is for home buyers in Long Itchington when they step through the doors of Redrow’s brand new show home.

Customers can experience life at the popular Poppy Meadow development first-hand when they visit the three-storey Elford property, providing an insight into life spread out over three floors.

Heather Jackson, sales manager for Redrow Homes (South Midlands), says: “Home buyers are relocating to Poppy Meadow from local villages such as Southam to be part of the ever-growing community in Long Itchington, so we wanted to create a new show home which will help buyers visualise life here.

“The look we were aiming for is ‘natural chic’. The colour scheme is made up of cream, mushroom beige, brown and stylish black, presenting visitors with a muted, tranquil home. The lounge is quite formal, with caramel tones making it perfect for entertaining guests.”

The Elford has an unusual layout, with the open-plan kitchen/dining area at the front of the house and the spacious lounge located at the rear. Two double bedrooms, each with their own en-suite, make up the first floor, while the top floor consists of two spacious double bedrooms and the family bathroom.
         

Heather adds: “In a three-storey property, home owners have the opportunity to set aside whole areas of the house for teenage children, an older relative or visiting guest. This kind of layout is ideal for families as mum and dad can enjoy the peace and quiet of the middle floor for their bedroom and leave the floor above as the kids’ domain! Unused bedrooms also lend themselves to alternative uses, such as a home office, gym or TV lounge.”

Poppy Meadow in Long Itchington currently has four Elford properties available priced from £289,995, as well as a range of three, four and five-bedroom homes. These include the three-bedroom Clifton, priced from £235,995 and the five-bedroom Webburn, which comes with a £449,995 price tag, while the five-bedroom Wharfe is priced from £469,995.
The venture is an award winning one, thanks to the expertise of the site manager, Mark Horne, who was recently awarded a ‘Seal of Excellence’ by the NHBC (National House Building Council, for his commitment to ensuring standards on site are of the highest order. The award, bestowed on only 100 site managers per year, out of 18,000, is an achievement for all those who have worked to bring the new homes development to fruition.
