New Redrow homes coming soon to Northop

Flintshire based housebuilder Redrow is looking to build on the success of its New Heritage Collection in North Wales with the launch of its latest venture in Northop.
The traditional looking homes that combine the best of old and new are already proving popular with homebuyers in Buckley and Wrexham and will soon be available in Northop.
The award-winning housebuilder now has planning permission to build 36 properties on a 3.71 acre site in Connah’s Quay Road.
Elaine Mounsey, sales manager for Redrow Homes (NW), commented: “Inspired by the architecture of the Arts and Crafts movement, the homes will sit comfortably alongside properties in the surrounding area and will be a welcome boost to the local housing market, offering a choice of two, three and four-bedroom homes. And while from the outside the homes will look traditional, inside they will boast modern interiors styled for 21st century family living.”
Some of the features which typify the Arts and Crafts era – and will be seen to varying degrees in the Northop homes – include dropped eaves, projecting plinths, bays and other distinctive window styles, often with leaded lights. Other highlights include timber or tiled canopies over doors and windows, supported by decorative gallows brackets, and the use of larch lap boarding, while front door styles and colours also reflect the ‘heritage’ feel.
The homes will enjoy fashionable kitchens that are both practical and stylish with the convenience of integrated top brand name appliances, plus tall units and extra wide drawers that offer plenty of storage. Bathrooms and en-suites will boast quality fixtures and fittings with an exclusive tile range.
Elaine explained: “House hunters will be impressed by the high quality of our homes and pleasantly surprised at what we include as standard, as our specification is unrivalled among most of our housebuilder peers and is generally streets ahead of what’s available on the second hand market.”
In fact, Redrow has calculated that it could cost around £30,000 to bring an older, three-bedroom property up to the same standard of one of its new homes.
“Buying a new home means you don’t have to worry about finding the time or the money for expensive repairs or renovations. Instead you can relax and enjoy peace of mind, knowing that the property is covered by a 10-year ‘Buildmark’ warranty,” Elaine added.
“Well insulated with double glazing and central heating included as standard, new homes are also more energy efficient than their second hand counterparts, making them potentially cheaper to run.”
