FAMILY-RUN developer Walton Homes will be launching its latest development – Appledore in Armitage – this Saturday (February 4) by opening the doors to a stunning new show home.

Located on New Road in Armitage, the prestigious Appledore development consists of nine, three and four-bedroom houses, each benefiting from garages and large gardens.

The show home boasts neutral shades of stone, taupe and brushed hues alongside touches of bright turquoise, all in keeping with the colour palettes expected to be popular in 2012.

Typical of all the houses at Appledore, the show home is fitted to a high internal specification and boasts contemporary and stylish kitchens and porcelanosa bathrooms.

Helen Rollason, sales manager at Walton Homes, said: "The show home at Appledore has been beautifully designed, incorporating soft, neutral colours with splashes of turquoise to add vibrancy to the property.

"There is a real sense of tranquillity in this new home and it's hard not to imagine curling up on the sofa after a long day and relaxing in the stunning surroundings.

"Launching a new show home is one of the most exciting times as it signifies a new era for the development. This is the first time that house-hunters will be able to walk round and explore one of the new homes at Appledore and with construction of the first properties expected to be completed in the spring, it won't be long before we are welcoming the new home owners to their luxury homes."

By reserving their plot early, future residents are being offered the chance to personalise their new home, with Walton Homes offering a choice of high quality fixtures and stylish, designer kitchens – providing the perfect opportunity for new homeowners to help design their perfect home.

Helen added: "We have already had two purchasers secure houses off-plan at Appledore, with a number of interested parties contacting us about other homes at the development.

"At Walton Homes our aim is to make purchasing a new home as simple and enjoyable as possible. We are happy to discuss tailor-made deals with all our purchasers and have launched a number of initiatives that really can make all the difference.

"If anybody wants to discuss their opportunities at Appledore, I would advise popping into our marketing suite to discuss the possibilities with our sales team."

Walton Homes has introduced a number of initiatives at the development to help house-hunters purchase their dream home, including assisted move, part exchange and five per cent deposit paid.

Starting from £235,000 for a four-bedroom house, the family homes at Appledore have been designed to be sympathetic to the local area, making the most of the rural setting.

Walton Homes is a family run housebuilder based in Lichfield, with a track record spanning over 25 years.

The Appledore marketing suite is open from 11am – 5pm Friday to Monday.
