Sixes and sevens in Birmingham

Barratt West Midlands has made some fantastic New Year reductions on the six properties left at its Lydiate Place development in Birmingham, with prices for six-bedroom properties cut to £249,950.

These beautiful six- and seven-bedroom homes are the last at the Handsworth development and offer four bathrooms, two reception rooms and a garage for the under £250,000. Previously, the list price for these Cambridge properties started at £290,000, but the discount equals £40,050 off the starting price for the homes.

The Cambridge properties are stylishly built, offering families plenty of space over three storeys. On the ground floor, the six-bedroom property has a fitted breakfast kitchen, a lounge, a separate dining room for more formal occasions, plus a downstairs cloakroom and a garage. The first floor comprises a master bedroom with en suite, a second double and a further two bedrooms, as well as a family sized, colour co-ordinated bathroom. Two spacious doubles, a shower room and a convenient storage area are offered on the second floor.

Meanwhile, the seven-bedroom Cambridge has all that the six-bedroom version offers, plus an attached garage with a further double bedroom on the first floor.

Graydon Worthing, Sales Director for Barratt West Midlands, said, "Lydiate Place is ideally located for easy access to Birmingham city centre and benefits from a number of open spaces close by including Handsworth Park, Dartmouth Park and Sandwell Valley Country Park.

"These six- and seven-bedroom homes were built with the local community in mind. Originally, we found people were crying out for new homes which were large enough to house their families, plus some extended members and we designed Lydiate Place to specifically fulfil that need."

Handsworth is located to the north west of Birmingham, offering easy access to the city centre and West Bromwich, with excellent transport links via bus and train and is also within close proximity to the M5 and M6 motorways.

Lydiate Place is situated on Island Road in Handsworth, Birmingham - it offers six remaining six- and seven-bedroom properties with prices starting from £249,950.
