Curved concept for contemporary apartments in Bournemouth

Super-stylish apartments will soon be providing homebuyers in Bournemouth with an exciting and distinctive place to live. Redrow Homes is creating an impressive new apartments venture in the town centre with a chic curved frontage. The 202 individual apartments come complete with brightly-coloured seafront styling, balconies and grass roof tops.

Tina Chalk, area sales manager for Redrow Homes (Southern), said: "Not only do the new homes stand out from the crowd, they are ideally situated within walking distance of the beach and all of Bournemouth's great local amenities.

"We have chosen a cutting edge design using clean, simple lines to deliver a contemporary look that will appeal to modern homebuyers. We will also be creating commercial space on ground-level for retail, café and restaurant use and below ground we will be providing separate residents' parking and 150 short-stay public car parking spaces. Communal areas will also be created outdoors to provide a place ideal for al fresco dining in the sun."

Sales will hopefully launch in the summer and it is hoped the first residents will move in by the end of next year. One of the three blocks, with views of the town centre and seafront, at the junction of Cranborne and Exeter Road, features a tall curved ‘tower', which has been colourfully-designed to reflect the vibrancy and energy of the coastal town.

The tower apartments will have stunning views out towards the sea and complement the seaside architecture of the area. Two further blocks, along Upper Terrace Road, reflect the quieter, residential nature of the town, with a simpler colour palette.

A grass roof will cover all three blocks. Sedum, a low-growing grass, will be used to provide a valuable area of natural planting to help with biodiversity within the area. In addition to absorbing CO2, sedum improves the thermal efficiency and acoustic properties of the roofing.

Bournemouth is a lively cosmopolitan town with seven miles of golden beaches offering watersports galore from surfing and jet skiing to windsurfing and wakeboarding.

The apartments will have a host of great local amenities close by, including good primary and secondary schools, an impressive selection of bars and restaurants and a wide-selection of shops and boutiques in the town centre - all just a short walk away.

The development has great road links to the surrounding towns, is less than a mile away from the nearest coach and train stations and, for those with further flung destinations in mind, it is approximately five miles from Bournemouth International Airport.
