Reaching new heights of perfection

Three is most definitely better than two, as home hunters can see for themselves in the stunning new three-storey show home at Poppyfields in Arborfield, near Wokingham.

Redrow has just opened the doors to its luxurious three-storey, three-bedroom Lambourne show home, which is exceeding all expectations of a traditional family home by spreading the living space over three floors.

Paul Moran, sales director for Redrow Homes (Southern), says: “Many people may not have experienced living over three floors so the new show home is a fantastic way for home buyers to get to grips with having a whole new floor to live in. Since we have opened the doors to the show home, we’ve been inundated with visitors, all looking for a versatile and modern property, which in the case of the Lambourne, is ticking all the right boxes.

“Three-storey and ‘room-in-the-roof’ homes like the Lambourne offer lots of space and character. Townhouses have a fashionable reputation, which appeals to aspirational young professionals as well as holding strong appeal for buyers who want to try flexible living – such as growing families.”

The Lambourne offers a spacious and carefully planned layout. Downstairs is home to a lounge/dining room, which boasts French doors onto the rear garden, as well as the fully fitted kitchen and a cloakroom.

The first floor features bedrooms two and three, both large enough to accommodate double beds, plus the family bathroom.

However it’s in the roof space where homebuyers will find this property’s piece de resistance, for this area is home to a luxurious master bedroom complete with fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower room.

This area offers flexibility to a range of home owners – parents can take over the master suite while their children spread out in the bedrooms beneath, or couples can limit their day to day living to the ground and first floor and utilise the second floor as guest accommodation - the opportunities are endless.

The show property also showcases Redrow’s brand new Signature specification, which will bring changes in a number of areas, most notably kitchens and bathrooms. The specification will give customers more choices and aims to give them more opportunity to personalise their new home.

Redrow has chosen the three-bedroom Lambourne as the perfect example of living over three floors and there are several chances for buyers to snap up one for themselves, with current prices starting from £276,500.

Other homes on release at the development include the two-bedroom Amherst apartment, at £186,950 and the two-bedroom Canterbury mews, from £206,000.

There is a ‘£99 and move in’ deal attached to selected Canterbury homes, with Redrow offering to pay the 5% deposit, stamp duty, legal fees up to £500 and provide free fitted carpets.

Poppyfields is perfectly located in prime commuter country, with Reading only a 20-minute drive away, while Arborfield itself offers a wide range of local services and is only four miles from the market town of Wokingham, where trains to London can take less than an hour. Poppyfields also provides excellent access to the M3 and M4.
