Showhomes to open at Darwin’s Edge in Shrewsbury
Two showhomes at Bellway’s Darwin’s Edge development in Shrewsbury are to open for viewing next month.
Bellway is building 150 new properties at the scheme, off Hereford Road, and is putting the finishing touches to the four-bedroom Cutler and Baswich housetypes.
The showhomes will be unveiled at a launch event on Saturday 18 November, when visitors will be able to take a tour of both Baswich and Cutler showhomes.
Marie Richards, Sales Director for Bellway West Midlands, said: “With work at Darwin’s Edge progressing well, we are looking forward to opening our wonderful new showhomes, which will give potential customers the chance to see for themselves the high level of quality we provide and get a feel for the design and scale of our properties.
“More than that, it’s a chance to visualise living in one of our homes and imagine how easy, organised, and stylish everyday life could be.”
Darwin’s Edge has been designed as a sustainable development, within walking distance of shops and services and next to Shrewsbury park and ride for sustainable travel links.
All homes at Darwin’s Edge will be fitted with EV charging points, Google Nest thermostats and Solar PV panels as part of Bellway’s ‘Better with Bellway’ sustainability strategy, which has industry-leading targets for carbon reduction, to bring energy-saving technology as standard to every new home it builds.
Marie said: “There will be a landscaped green buffer around the development and plenty of public open space, so this will be an attractive place to live, designed to give residents breathing space.
“Bellway is committed to providing much-needed new homes for Shrewsbury, and our developments here are becoming thriving neighbourhoods.
“Our homes are well located in areas that tie in with people’s needs. The neighbouring park and ride gives easy access to the town centre by bus, while Darwin’s Edge is less than a mile from the A5 for those travelling by car.”
Darwin’s Edge will provide 113 homes for private sale and 37 affordable homes for low-cost rent or shared ownership. Each of the homes will have allocated parking or a garage.
Bellway is investing £500,000 in the area’s primary and secondary education provision as part of its planning agreement for the site.
And the homebuilder is working elsewhere in Shrewsbury, at Copthorne Keep off Copthorne Road where it is constructing 224 new homes, and at The Spinney, off Oteley Road, where it is building 164 properties.
The homes at Darwin’s Edge are from Bellway’s Artisan Collection. There’s currently a choice of two, three and four-bedroom houses available to reserve, with prices starting from £262,995.
