FOR anyone looking for a practical but stylish home with low maintenance, the apartments at St John’s Mews in Bishopgarth are perfect.

The luxury homes at Redrow’s new development on the site of the former police training centre start from £134,950 and there’s a collection of stunning styles to choose from.

“The apartments at St John’s Mews are ideal for so many home buyers, from those starting out on the property ladder because of their affordable prices, to young families or rightsizers wanting something more modern and manageable after the children have grown up and fled the nest – or, even, for those who simply want a great home but who don’t want hassle of having the upkeep of a garden,” says Steve Jackson, sales director for Redrow Homes (Yorkshire).

“They are easy to maintain with fabulous open plan living on one floor and yet still, with their usual creative flair, our designers have come up with a refreshing new look for apartment living too.”

Innovative design is at its best in the new ‘Lodge’ apartments coming soon to the Westfield Road development.

Steve goes on: “The new Lodge apartments at St John’s Mews will combine the convenience of an apartment with the architecture of a traditional house, creating a cosy, homely feeling you don’t always get in a larger block.”


The Lodge apartments feature two generously sized double bedrooms, including a master bedroom with en-suite shower room and built-in wardrobes, and a family bathroom alongside a spacious kitchen and living area.

Completing the apartments are the Charterhouse styles, available with both one and two bedrooms, but each with a superb kitchen, dining and living area.  The one-bedroom Charterhouse apartments have a roomy double bedroom and a bathroom, while the two-bedroom apartment enjoys an en-suite to the master and a separate bathroom.

Each apartment boasts plenty of vital storage space.

All homes hail from Redrow’s Regent Collection which combines classic Georgian-inspired architecture with contemporary and practical interiors which are perfect for modern living.

The development will eventually see the creation of a community with more than 100 brand-new one two, three and four-bedroom homes less than a mile from Wakefield town centre with all the amenities that enjoys and close to the train station providing easy access to Leeds and beyond.

And Redrow has a range of initiatives that make investing in a new home easier than ever, including its own Help to Sell scheme which uses a local estate agent to help find owners with an existing house to sell, market their home and find a buyer, and even contributes to estate agent fees.

There is also Help to Buy, the Government-backed scheme which can provide an equity loan for up to 20% of a newly-built property’s value, which remains interest free for five years.  A buyer then only requires a mortgage for 75% of the property value and a 5% deposit.
