New year…new home...New York

Tue, Jan 9th 2007, 11:00

Home buyers can enjoy the party atmosphere when the doors to a brand new show apartment are thrown open in Streetly this Saturday (January 13).

Donuts, popcorn and nibbles and a tour around the new two-bedroom Avon show home are all on offer as part of the exciting launch at Redrow’s Poet’s Wood development on Aldridge Road – not to mention the chance to win a once-in-a-lifetime holiday.

New homes can be reserved during the event and those who go on to legally complete on their purchase could win a fabulous trip to New York.

Linda Androlia, sales director for Redrow Homes (West Midlands) said: “First time buyers all over the country are finding it harder and harder to get a foot on the property ladder and this is definitely the case in sought-after areas like Streetly, where typical house prices are well above the national average.

“There is a lot on offer for first time buyers at Poet’s Wood, whether they are single and looking for a one-bedroom apartment, or young couples looking for a home in which to start a family.”

A two-bedroom Avon like the new show apartment starts at just £139,950 and other homes at the development start below the stamp duty threshold of £125,000, including a one-bedroom apartment at just £119,950.      
Linda said: “The new show home’s interior has been created by professional designers and is an example of the great potential of the properties at Poet’s Wood.

“The apartment has been dressed in very rich colours, with deep browns and aubergines. The design of the show home was inspired by the profile of an aspirational young professional looking for an elegantly stylish home within their price range.

“The home has a tailored look, with silk, wool and velvet fabrics creating a homely environment with flashes of decadence provided by gold touches throughout the interior.”

“The new apartments are sure to follow the great success that the detached properties have enjoyed so far at the development and this weekend’s launch holds an opportunity for first time buyers, investors, and empty nesters wanting to downsize and become part of this established community.”

The stylish homes are just one of the many selling points of Poet’s Wood and the location of the development is also excellent. The area is well served locally with the shops and facilities of Streetly just a short distance away.

Slightly further afield, Sutton Coldfield has all the necessary amenities, including an excellent shopping centre featuring all the major named retailers. Also on the doorstep is Sutton Park, a national nature reserve that covers 2,400 acres and offers a selection of family activities.

The development currently features one and two-bedroom apartments and two and three-bedroom terraced and semi-detached houses.

Find out more by attending the opening event on Saturday January 13 from 11am to 5.30pm. The new show home will then be open seven days a week from 10am to 5.30pm. For more information about availability at Poet’s Wood, call the sales team on 0121 353 7395.
