Sales success for new development in Handsworth

Barratt West Midlands' eagerly anticipated Lydiate Place development in Handsworth has now been officially opened to the public and has proven very popular, with a third of the homes already sold since its launch in January.

Situated on Island Road, Lydiate Place is a small development of just 21 four- five- six- and seven-bedroom houses, which have all been specifically designed to suit the needs of larger families and seven of the homes have already been snapped up, just weeks after its launch.

David Child, Sales Director for Barratt commented, "The homes at Lydiate Place have been designed to cater for the increasing number of large and extended families by offering flexible open plan living areas with many of the homes laid out over three floors.

"Lydiate Place is very different to other new build developments in the area which certainly don't offer six- and seven-bedroom homes, so it is no surprise that it has been so popular with homebuyers. Plus with all the benefits that new build homes offer such as the 10 year NHBC warranty, we are sure that the remaining homes will be snapped up very quickly and we are urging homebuyers to register their interest now in order to secure their perfect plot and avoid disappointment."

Situated less than four miles from Birmingham city centre Lydiate Place is excellently located for those who are looking for a retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life, whilst still being close to all of the amenities that Birmingham has to offer. The M5 and M6 are also close by making it ideal for those who need to travel to other areas of the West Midlands and indeed the UK.

Prices at Lydiate Place start from £199,000. For more information log on oto Barratthomes.co.uk/lydiateplace.
