Taylor Wimpey has opened three brand new showhomes at its Cedar Drive development of property for sale in Oldbury.

The three stylish new showhomes now open at Taylor Wimpey’s popular Cedar Drive development of houses for sale in Oldbury offer inspiration to all types of property-seeker.

The two-bedroom ‘Woburn’, three-bedroom ‘Kingsford’ and four-bedroom ‘Malvern’ show properties in Oldbury provide first-time buyers, executive couples, growing families and downsizers alike the chance to experience the wonderful lifestyle that can be enjoyed at this sought-after new community.

Jan Titley, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “It’s possible to get a realistic idea of what homes at our Cedar Drive development of new homes in Oldbury look like from drawings and plans, but there’s nothing like walking round a decorated and furnished showhome to get a true flavour of what life here has to offer.

“These beautiful properties offer a unique insight into what life could be like at this fabulous development of property to buy in Oldbury, and are an inspiration for every type of buyer looking for their ideal home in a superb location.”

The two-bedroom ‘Woburn’ terraced house, for example, can be purchased from just £106,246* with Taylor Wimpey’s easystart shared equity initiative.

This well-appointed home features a contemporary kitchen, an open plan lounge/dining room opening through French doors to the private rear garden plus a handy guest cloakroom off the entrance hallway.

Upstairs, the landing leads to two well-proportioned bedrooms and a main bathroom, while allocated parking can be found outside.

Under easystart, purchasers need only to find a deposit as low as 5% and Taylor Wimpey will put them in touch with an independent financial advisor to help arrange a mortgage covering up to 80% of the price.

The remaining 15% is provided by the housebuilder in the form of an interest-free loan which can be repaid in up to three instalments over a 10-year period.

Full details and terms and conditions of the incentive are available from the Sales Executive.

The three-bedroom ‘Kingsford’ semi-detached house is priced from only £123,675*, while the spacious four-bedroom semi-detached ‘Malvern’ house can be reserved from just £140,246*.

Cedar Drive is a thoughtfully designed new community less than a mile to the east of Oldbury town centre, in a sought-after and well-established residential location with excellent transport links to Birmingham and beyond.

The new homes at Cedar Drive will lie within beautifully landscaped grounds on the site of the former Sampson Works in Rood End Road and are ideally placed to take advantage of the region’s travel network.

Junctions 1 and 2 of the M5 are close by, linking with the M6 and M42, and a choice of railway stations within walking distance offers services into Birmingham city centre in around ten minutes. The Metro rail link from Wolverhampton to Birmingham makes the journey to work even easier.

A wealth of high street shops, pubs and eateries, day-to-day essentials such as doctors’ and dental surgeries, plus a good choice of schools for children of all ages are just a short walk away.

Historic West Smethwick Park is just a stone’s throw from the new homes, and boasts a children’s play area, allotments, a pavilion and changing rooms, youth games facilities and sports pitches.

The town’s historic canals are increasingly used for leisure and boating, while a major reclamation project has turned the picturesque Titford Pool into one of the area’s top beauty spots.

House-hunters can visit the Cedar Drive showhomes and Sales and Marketing Suite, located off Rood End Road, Oldbury, between 10am and 5pm Thursday to Monday.
