Lead the good life at Canal Walk

Lead the good life at Canal Walk Whilst the fantastic properties at Barratt West Midlands’ Canal Walk are a great reason to purchase at the development, buyers at this Netherton location can also benefit from some of the area’s best nature sites and watersports close by.

The development sits on the well-kept banks of the Dudley Canal, on Purlin Wharf just off the Halesowen Road in the Black Country and offers beautiful three-bedroom homes priced from £145,550.

However, buyers searching for a brand new development where they can also lead the good life in the great outdoors should look to Canal Walk, as it boasts Lodge Farm Reservoir, Netherton Hill, Saltwells Wood and Doulton Claypit on its doorstep.

That means people who want to take advantage of water sports, country walks and other activities nature has to offer will find this Barratt development suits their needs.

Saltwells Wood is part of the wider Saltwells Nature Reserve, which extends to Netherton Hill. Here, there are nature trails, great walks and plenty of wildlife to spot and what is more, from the summit of the hill – the highest point in the Black Country – Clent, the Malvern Hills, the Black Mountains and Wales can be seen.

Closeby, Doulton Claypit is also a great place to stroll to as this has been designated a Geological Sites of Special Scientific Interest because of its coal formations. Lastly, Lodge Farm Reservoir has adventurous activities such as waterskiing, scuba diving, sailing and boating on offer.

Graydon Worthing, Sales Director for Barratt West Midlands, said, “Many people are aware of the great properties we have on offer at our Canal Walk development. But fewer know that this area of the Black Country is a great place to spend time outdoors and is actually and area of superb natural beauty.

“That means that countryside lovers don’t have to relocate to the heart of the country to enjoy these activities – they can actually purchase in the middle of the West Midlands, yet still be within easy travelling distance of work, shops, entertainment and nightlife.”

Canal Walk has three-bedroom homes priced from £145,550. For further information, log on to Barratthomes.co.uk/canalwalk.
