Reach for the sky

It’s up, up and away for the people of Lichfield this bank holiday Monday (28th May) when Redrow Homes brings its very own hot air balloon to town.

Tethered balloon flights in the fantastic red balloon will be offered on a first come first served basis at the Lichfield Bower, in Beacon Park. There will also be a fair and a jamboree in the park, and a fun fair in the city centre, to ensure a fun family day out.

Julie Chapman, area sales manager for Redrow Homes (Midlands) says: “This is a really great chance for people who have always wanted to take a hot air balloon ride to have a go. The Bower is a popular annual event, so we’re expecting a really great turn out for the weekend. As it’s first come first served for flights, I’d advise anyone who wants a free flight to get down there quickly.

“Redrow has been building new homes in Lichfield for many years now, firstly at The Parade, and now at our fantastic new development – City Wharf – and we will have sales consultants on hand with information and advice for anyone who is interested in this stunning mixed-use venture.”

City Wharf in Wharf Close, off Upper St John Street, offers two-bedroom apartments and two, three and four-bedroom houses in a location that’s perfect for families, downsizers and commuters alike.

One of the larger properties currently on release at City Wharf is the four-bedroom Teign. This home makes use of a versatile third floor which houses three bedrooms and a bathroom. The Teign also has a large family and dining room, kitchen, downstairs cloakroom, lounge, en-suite shower room to the master bedroom, fitted wardrobes and storage cupboards. Prices start at £235,000.

Apartments are also available, in the shape of the two-bedroom Avon, from £145,950 and the two-bedroom Allen. The latter comes with a kitchen, lounge and dining area, fitted wardrobe, storage space and an integral single garage below. The Allen starts at £159,950.
