Fabulous family-sized homes at The Forge

House-hunters looking for a family-sized home in which to make a fresh start this New Year need look no further than the fabulous range of homes at The Forge development at Ironstone in Lawley.

George Wimpey North Midlands is offering amazing four-bedroom homes from just £249,995, giving growing families the space to enjoy a new, more comfortable and more environmental lifestyle. And with the new, lower interest rates bringing down the cost of mortgages, now is a brilliant time to buy.

The ‘Bourton', for example, is an imposing, double-fronted property featuring a light and airy kitchen, a utility room, a spacious lounge room with French doors to the rear garden, and a separate dining room. A cloakroom off the entrance hallway completes the ground floor accommodation.

Upstairs, the landing leads to a master suite with dressing room and shower room, a second double bedroom and the main bathroom. The top floor comprises two further bedrooms - ideal for putting some distance between parents and untidy teenagers.

As an alternative to the three-storey design, the ‘Broseley', with a striking stone-finished exterior, is an enchanting home with a wealth of character. The L-shaped layout maximises light and offers garden views throughout much of the property.

The ground floor comprises a spacious kitchen/breakfast room with separate utility area, a lounge with French doors to the garden, a dining room and a cloakroom.

Upstairs, the landing leads to four bedrooms - two with en-suite facilities - and a main bathroom.

Customers can also choose the magnificent five-bedroom ‘Edgmond', which has two en-suites, a spacious kitchen/breakfast room, a utility and separate living and dining rooms. At the special price of only £275,000, this amazing home is only available to those who can exchange contracts before Christmas.

Homes at The Forge benefit from a range of eco features, including high levels of insulation, low-energy boilers for water and central heating.

Meanwhile, all its properties are also finished to a high standard specification, and include bathroom suites, tiling and a fitted kitchen with built-in oven, hob and hood.

The Forge is part of Ironstone, a brand new sustainable village community at Lawley comprising four distinct neighbourhoods and offering a bustling social hub, classical architecture, open spaces and a host of local facilities.

The community has been carefully designed to integrate a range of new facilities, including a village centre and a primary school.

The Forge is well-served by existing and new public transport links and commuters will appreciate that the M54 and M6 are a short drive from the development.

Telford - the largest town in Shropshire - lies less than three miles away and is home to a vast array of leisure opportunities, including a large shopping centre and the accompanying town park, a cinema, bars, restaurants and a vibrant nightlife.
