Steeped in rural history, The Barns at Oakham Manor occupies the site of a medieval farm which became part of the Earl of Craven’s estate, recorded on the estate map of 1772.
The remains of a brick-built farm house and barns dating back to the late 18th and early 19th centuries inspired the careful re-imaginings of these buildings, which will now be magnificent new homes for four discerning house-hunters.
Each property blends traditional architecture with striking contemporary styling and is completed to a high standard specification including double glazing, central heating and fitted kitchen with integrated oven, hob and hood. Included with each plot is a garage and additional parking, or two allocated parking spaces.
All the new homes, which form part of the new Lightmoor Village community, are fitted with eco-features as standard including high levels of loft insulation, water-saving devices and A-rated appliances.
A new 210-place primary school is due to open at Lightmoor in September 2011, and will have seven classes, a play area and a multi-use games area for a range of sports and outdoor activities.
There will also be facilities within the school building to benefit the wider community, including meeting rooms, a hall, indoor sports and recreation areas and changing rooms, with long-term stewardship of the whole development to be secured by a specially convened Village Trust.
Lightmoor Village nestles in beautiful landscape between Telford and Coalbrook Dale and benefits from over 50 acres of open landscaped areas for leisure, sport and recreational use.
The community will also be well-served by existing and new public transport links, with a bus service to Telford town centre where a wider range of shops and schools for children of all ages can be found.
Commuters will appreciate that the M54 and M6 just a short drive away, while Telford’s railway station provides links to Wolverhampton and Birmingham.
To see the wonderful lifestyle opportunities on offer at The Barns at Oakham Manor for themselves, property-seekers should visit the Sales Centre, located at Woodland Lane, off Wellington Road, Lightmoor Village, Horsehay, TF4 3BH, and open Saturdays and Sundays from 11am to 5pm.
