Charming, practical and stylish new homes

Buyers who want a home that’s traditional outside, but without the hassle or expense of modernising the inside, should pay a visit to Castle View in Stafford.

The Redrow development features a choice of four-bedroom detached homes that combine the best of old and new. Externally they ooze the charm and character of ‘period’ properties, while inside they are full of family friendly features designed for ease of living and modern lifestyles.

They offer many of the things that a recent study carried out for the Royal Institute of British Architects states people want and need from their home.

Pauline Turnbull, sales director for Redrow Homes (Midlands), said: “We were very interested to read of RIBA’s survey as their results echoed a lot of our own findings prior to introducing The New Heritage Collection which features at Castle View.

“Like RIBA, we found that homebuyers are influenced by the homes they lived in previously and want a home which has ‘period’ features, but is practical too. That is the ethos on which New Heritage was founded. Our Arts & Crafts inspired exteriors give people the period style ‘character’ they want and often remind them of the home they grew up in as children.”

Inside too, Redrow believes its homes already offer many of these things that RIBA says people want and need from their home.

Pauline continued: “The survey highlighted that people want a large main living area for eating, entertaining and relaxing and the convivial open plan layouts of our homes ticks that box. Another must-have is space for essential household items; our homes include a laundry or utility room to keep the washer and dryer out of the kitchen, as well as providing additional cupboard space.”

Four-bedroom detached homes in a choice of styles are currently available at Castle View from £204,995, with selected properties almost ready to move into.

They all boast kitchens that are stylish, practical and well-equipped, with integrated top brand name appliances such as oven, fridge freezer and microwave included as standard and tall cabinets and extra wide drawers which offer plenty of storage. Bathrooms and en-suites enjoy quality fixtures and fittings, with a tile range that’s exclusive to Redrow.

Castle View is an ideal base for commuters as the M6 is easily accessible and Stafford railway station is less than a mile away, offering frequent train services to and from Birmingham and beyond.
