Latimer Square gets the ultimate makeover

Gok Wan eat your heart out! If you want to see the ultimate makeover – then take a trip to Taylor Wimpey’s Latimer Square development in Oldbury.

The leading housebuilder has transformed a barbed-wire surrounded industrial brownfield site into a stunning new place to live, where beautifully styled two-bedroom apartments and three and four bedroom homes certainly have the wow factor.

And the location is fantastic too, less than a mile from Oldbury town centre with its blend of traditional architecture and modern design, while the area is also home to a good choice of schools for children of all ages – including Tividale Community Arts College and Rounds Green and Grace Mary primary schools.

The development, which is next to the acclaimed Brades Village regeneration of Oldbury, is also perfect or commuters with the M5 just a five-minute drive away and Langley Green Railway Station less than two miles away.

Daniel McGowan, Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey North Midlands, said: “Latimer Square is a shining example of what can be done when a forward-thinking council and the Taylor Wimpey design team work together to transform an area.

“Most visitors cannot believe the ‘before’ and ‘after’ pictures of the site. And when they see the stunning new three-bedroom ‘Croxton’ and four-bedroom detached ‘Draycott’ showhomes, the full scale of what has been achieved can be truly appreciated.”

A superb range of homes is available at Latimer Square, ranging from the three-bedroom ‘Barwell’ priced from £149,995 to the glorious ‘Draycott’ priced from £224,995.

For example, the newly-released ‘Brooke’ three-bedroom family home features a kitchen with separate living and dining rooms on the downstairs, with a cloakroom. Upstairs, there is a generous master bedroom with en-suite, two further bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Househunters interested in making their move to the development can take advantage of incentives for first-time buyers and George Wimpey’s easymover programme, through which customers with a house to sell can reserve their new home and then sit back and relax while the housebuilder helps to find a buyer for their current property.

Incentives can be tailored to homebuyers’ circumstances and are subject to availability. Further details are available from the Sales Executive.

Oldbury is becoming one of the most popular areas to live with families looking for attractive new homes close to excellent amenities with plenty of things to do. The central square and waterways add a vibrancy and style to this Black Country town. The canals are now used for pleasure boats and fishing, while a superb range of shops and restaurants occupy many of the striking, red-brick buildings.

The Black Country Living Museum, Dudley Zoo and Dudley Museum are all within easy reach of Latimer Square. The showhomes and Sales Centre at Latimer Square are open Thursday to Monday, 11am to 5pm, and are located off Summerton Road, Oldbury.
