With the final home now sold at Aston Fields and the last few properties available at The Uplands, time is running out for Shifnal buyers. Redrow has been building and selling homes in the Shropshire town since 2014. Over the course of the last three years around 150 of Redrow’s sought-after Heritage Collection homes have been sold. With the vast majority of the properties now occupied, both locations have become thriving new neighbourhoods each with its own growing sense of community. The Uplands has proved particularly popular with buyers looking to downsize or rightsize to a house that best suits their lifestyle after their children have flown the parental nest to homes of their own. Pauline Turnbull, sales director for Redrow Homes (Midlands), explains: “Many people long to escape to the country in later life, but still want easy access to shops, restaurants and other amenities that can be found in towns. The Uplands is perfectly placed, on the edge of Shifnal, to offer the best of both worlds and this is echoed in the design of our homes. They look traditional from the outside but are very much designed with modern living in mind.” There are now just two styles of properties available at The Uplands – the four-bedroom Oxford and the three-bedroom Leamington, with prices from £339,995. “The Leamington is as stylish as it is practical and demonstrates that there’s no room for compromise when downsizing – or rightsizing, as we prefer to call it,” Pauline adds. “These buyers require fewer bedrooms so instead we’ve designed larger and better appointed rooms, with more storage. They also want ample living space for entertaining family and friends. The Leamington is the ideal solution with the amount of living space that people may expect to find in a four-bedroom home. The kitchen is very much the hub of modern living and so we’ve made this the focal point of the ground floor of the Leamington with a combined kitchen, dining and family room overlooking the garden.” There’s also a separate lounge, utility and convenient cloakroom. Upstairs, all three bedrooms are doubles, with the master benefitting from a wet room and walk-in wardrobe, leaving the main bathroom to serve the remaining two bedrooms. To be in with a chance of owning one of the final homes at The Uplands, visit the development, on Wolverhampton Road, open daily from 10am to 5.30pm.
