A prime position in Lichfield

It was location, location, location (and no need for DIY) that inspired Martyn Preece’s decision to make the move to Redrow’s City Wharf. Just a short walk away from the centre of Lichfield and close to the train station, which offers journey times to Birmingham New Street of a little over half-an-hour, 29-year-old Martyn Preece was instantly sold on City Wharf’s setting.

Martyn said: “Lichfield is an exciting, cosmopolitan area and it’s great to live this close to the city, it’s so convenient and makes life a lot easier. I can’t praise the position of my new home enough, it’s so close to everything, including motorway links, which is excellent as my job requires me to drive around a lot.”

Impressed not just with its position, but also with its presentation, the telecommunications consultant says he was instantly struck with City Wharf’s modern design.

Martin continued: “The homes are really attractively built and the site is just the right size. It was great being able to move straight in with no work to do, I relished having a blank canvas to work with and really had fun personalising it. What has impressed me most about City Wharf is how relaxed I feel here and how immediately I felt at home.

“The sales staff really added to that feeling, they were all really helpful as well as warm and friendly. The whole experience of buying my new home was very enjoyable and I’d definitely recommend City Wharf.”

Perfect for families, downsizers and commuters alike, City Wharf offers the perfect solution to the living needs of a wide array of buyers.

Pauline Turnbull, sales director for Redrow Homes (Midlands) said: “Whether you're single, a couple or a growing family, City Wharf has something for everyone. You can work here, learn here, shop here and relax here. Thanks to the development's perfectly balanced location, you can be sure that an early morning drive or train journey to work is as stress-free as a late evening bike ride.”

Buyers interested in a property at City Wharf may be able to take advantage of help available under ‘re:assure from Redrow’, which is designed to making moving home as easy as possible from the moment of first enquiry to right after the customer has moved in.

And just when you thought it couldn’t get any better Redrow can take the hassle out of moving with a fantastic furniture package, available on selected plots, which includes curtains, carpets and light fittings.

Pauline Turnbull, sales director for Redrow Homes (Midlands) says: “The furniture packages are ideal for people starting out on the property ladder and take the hassle out of moving house, giving buyers the chance to save time and money. Imagine being able to walk into your new home and all you need is your toothbrush.”

And for those who already have their furniture, Redrow may be able to pay the 5 per cent deposit on their behalf on selected plots only.

Prices at City Wharf range from as low as £146,950 for a two-bedroom apartment with parking.

The contemporary design and high quality of the development are matched by its first class location – with direct links to the M6, M42 and M54 via the A38. Walsall is around 20 minutes away while Cannock can be reached in 15 minutes.
