£10m housing scheme set for Edgbaston
Taylor Wimpey Midlands is set to construct £10m of new housing on Highfield Road, Edgbaston. The housebuilder purchased the land from property investor Calthorpe Estates.
Birmingham-based Calthorpe sold the long leasehold on 1.74-acres of land to Taylor Wimpey, with planning consent in place for a development of 57 new homes.
The development, known as Highfield Gardens, will comprise 57 apartments, including 33 one-bedroom and 18 two-bedroom properties.
Four three-bedroom townhouses and two one-bedroom coach houses will also be constructed.
Andrew Taylor, regional land director for Taylor Wimpey Midlands, said: "Highfield Gardens is set to tap into the pent-up demand that exists in the regional marketplace for aspirational new homes in a sought-after location.
"Edgbaston is highly regarded as one of the very best places to live and work in the Midlands, and Taylor Wimpey is delighted to have a presence in the area once again with such an exclusive new development."
