New homes give a nod to Liverpool's nautical heritage

Set sail to a brand new home in South Liverpool, where a new phase of contemporary looking homes inspired by the area’s maritime heritage is now available.

A new selection of two, three and four-bedroom homes has been released for sale at Redrow’s award-winning Cressington Heath venture in Garston, where prices start from just £127,995.

The modern designs will sell alongside the company’s more traditional looking New Heritage Collection of detached family homes, ensuring that this popular development really does have something for everyone.

Lesley Myers, area sales manager for Redrow Homes (Lancashire), said: “At Redrow we appreciate that our customers are individuals and that while some people want a very traditional looking home, others prefer to live in a property with a fresh modern look, inside and out. The stand-out range of homes available at Cressington Heath offers a choice of stylish, quality built homes to suit both tastes.”

A two-bedroom ‘Allen’ style property can be snapped up from £127,995. Three-bedroom properties are on the market at £174,995 and four-bedroom homes are available from £182,995.

“The contemporary homes in this latest sales release at Cressington Heath enjoy an innovative design that also gives a nod to the past. Reflecting the heritage of the area and the development’s close proximity to the Mersey, a number of the properties at Cressington Heath have nautically-inspired features,” Lesley explained.

“For example, some of the townhouses we’ve built feature an external balcony with a curved holding bar, designed specifically to portray a yacht’s sail blowing in the wind; while other homes feature timbers in their external elevations to reflect the boarding on a ship.”

Boundary treatments running alongside some of the properties are purposely designed to reflect the boundary markings used alongside the docks, featuring heavy wooden pillars joined by long poles.

Redrow’s contemporary designed properties can now be bought ‘off plan’, giving purchasers more choice of the individual design touches that really make a home their own.

“Our interiors feature convivial open plan living spaces, fashionable kitchen designs with floor to ceiling units, central islands and top brand name appliances, plus sleek bathrooms that are pleasing to the eye,” Lesley commented.

“And because everything’s brand new, Redrow customers can put their own stamp on their property from day one without having to worry about finding the time or the money for expensive repairs or renovations. Instead, they’ll enjoy peace of mind, knowing that their investment is covered by a 10-year ‘Buildmark’ guarantee. And because the homes are built to modern energy efficient standards, they’re also kinder to the environment and potentially cheaper to run than some older homes.”

Cressington Heath, off Garston Way, offers easy access to Liverpool city centre and benefits from a wealth of amenities on its doorstep. The development boasts excellent road and rail links, with Cressington train station within walking distance, and is just two miles away from Liverpool John Lennon Airport.
