Watch 1,000 Redrow balloons go by!

29th October 2007 Print
Watch 1,000 Redrow balloons go by! A Hazel Grove housing development is flying high and potential home owners are invited to join in the celebrations this weekend (Saturday, November 3rd) – with the chance to win a superb prize. Forget ‘99 Red Balloons’, one thousand of them – all biodegradable of course – will be released into the skies above Cooper Court in a bumper balloon race.

Visitors to the development will be invited to fill in a tag and attach it to one of the balloons in a bid to see their balloon travel the furthest. The prize at stake is an exclusive flight for two people* in Redrow’s very own hot air balloon at one of the many balloon festivals that take place around the UK, plus a night’s dinner, bed and breakfast in a luxury hotel.

Patsy Aicken, sales director for Redrow Homes (North West), says: “Cooper Court is a fantastic development and we want everyone to share in its success.

“It’s less than half an hour from Manchester city centre, close to the amenities of Stockport and features a great selection of two-bedroom apartments, mews-style properties and three-bedroom semi detached homes, in a semi-rural location.

“We’ve got a beautiful show apartment decorated in creams, caramels, browns and burnt orange, for a contemporary yet classical feel. And outside there’s an open aspect around the perimeter of the development, including a picturesque reservoir for residents to enjoy.”

The Avon show apartment will be open for would-be home owners to view this weekend and Redrow will be serving light refreshments in the build-up to the big balloon release at 2pm.

As well as the opportunity to win an exclusive flight in Redrow’s own hot air balloon, there will also be a second prize of a Wicker’s World balloon voucher worth £149 for a hot air balloon ride for one person at a choice of venues around the UK, and a third prize of £100 M&S vouchers.

The finder of the balloon that travels the furthest will also receive a £50 voucher.

Already proving itself to be the height of sophistication, Cooper Court will eventually feature 98 exciting properties close to the shops, pubs and restaurants of Hazel Grove. The first people have already moved in and a vibrant new community is starting to emerge.

Current availability includes two-bedroom apartments from just £156,000 and two and three-bedroom houses from £169,950 to £254,950. Future releases will include apartments with Juliet balconies overlooking the neighbouring reservoir.

Travel connections from Hazel Grove are excellent, with easy access to the A6 and M60 motorway and a local railway station which takes people straight into Manchester Piccadilly in 30 minutes.

Join Redrow at Cooper Court, in Cooper Street, this Saturday (November 3rd) between 11am and 2pm and find out how you could soon be flying high with a brand new home – and maybe even a hot air balloon ride to celebrate.
