Zoned for a Modern Lifestyle

Two Sales at Successful Showhome Launch in Gedling

Seventies retro meets glamour with a touch of Zen. That is the atmosphere created in the fantastic show apartment at SOL's latest development of apartments in Gedling, where two properties were reserved at the opening weekend.

Designed for today's lifestyles, and providing affordable homes for first time buyers and singles, Haddon Court offers a choice of one and two-bedroomed apartments in a quiet environment, just four miles from the city centre.

To help make home-buying easier, SOL have put together a fantastic purchase package offering to provide the 5% deposit, Stamp Duty, carpets and legal fees up to £750 to the purchasers of these brand new apartments.

Now open for viewing, the show apartment is zoned for a modern lifestyle with clearly defined areas for sleeping, cooking, dining, relaxing or working on the computer.

The designers have followed a dramatic black and white theme, featuring bold patterns reminiscent of the 1970s, combined with glamorous details and Zen-style prints in ornate frames.

The living space is simply stunning. In the sitting area, there is a black and cream velour sofa and co-ordinating chair, with polka dot and stripe details. The black and cream theme is repeated in the dining area, which has a circular dining table with a smoked glass top and cream leather chairs.

This theme complements the spacious designer kitchen with charcoal coloured units, grey worktops and integrated stainless steel appliances. Ceramic tiles within the kitchen area add to the spacious feeling of this personal living space.

Here, the skill is in the details which include a fantastic square mirror with rounded corners within a tinted black glass frame, beautifully placed behind the dining table. There is a restful Japanese print on the wall, a dramatic table decoration and modern, 'art-deco-style' wallpaper behind the flat screen TV in the living area.

The master bedroom is sumptuously decorated, with flocked lampshades, wallpaper detail, embroidered and sequined bed covers and another Japanese-style print. There is a luxurious en-suite shower room and a double fitted wardrobe.

A much lighter interpretation of the black and white theme adds character to the single bedroom, which also has a generously-sized wardrobe. This lightness is emphasised by prints of New York's famous Central Park in the snow.

The showhome marks the launch of Haddon Court, which features 16 apartments over three floors, and is close to shops, cafes, pubs and other amenities in Gedling and Carlton, and just a short drive from the major Netherfield retail park.

"This development is ideal for first time buyers or single professional people looking for an affordable modern home in a peaceful location," says Liz Shirley, Sales Manager with SOL Homes. "The designers have helped us to create a fabulous show home, which attracted many visitors at the opening last weekend."

Located in Stoke Lane, Gedling, the price of one-bedroomed apartments at Haddon Court start from £129,995 and two-bedroomed apartments from £136,995. Each property has its own allocated car parking space.

The development is open from Thursday to Monday between 10.30am and 5pm. For more information visit the showhome, which is now open, or contact Caroline Gregory in the sales office on 0115 940 0161.
