PRESS RELEASE 30/08/07
A development of 55 apartments in the centre of Accrington goes on sale for the first time on Friday the 31st. August at mid-day. Waterside Accrington features a wide selection of contemporary one and two bedroom apartments.
The Waterside apartments are the latest development from Globe Enterprises Ltd. This company is a partnership of Barnfield Developments Ltd., Mr. Stuart Nevison and Hyndburn Borough Council. The release of these apartments is the latest in a number of regeneration projects undertaken in Accrington by the Globe partnership including The Globe Centre, The Accrington Superbowl and Vue Cinema complex and Scaitcliffe House - the home of Hyndburn Borough Council.
Located at St. James Court, adjacent to The Globe Centre, Scaitcliffe House and the new Health Centre, these apartments are within a short stroll of the town centre and are anticipated to stimulate a great deal of both local and regional interest.
Tim Webber, Managing Director of Barnfield Construction Ltd., said: "Barnfield have been involved in producing a number of apartment blocks in city centres, and this unique development represents a really exciting alternative approach to modern lifestyle for people in Pennine Lancashire."
The building itself offers a wide variety of one and two bedroom apartments, with a further choice of en-suite bathrooms and either Juliet balconies or balconies with their own terraces. The orientation of the building, and the fact that there are six floors of apartments, provides each apartment with different and stunning views over the town to the countryside beyond.
Stuart Nevison of Globe Enterprises said: "This building represents a fantastic opportunity for anyone wishing to experience town centre living in a brand new, green and energy efficient environment, complemented by spectacular country and town views".
Waterside is the latest in a series of significant investments in the regeneration of the Borough of Hyndburn. Councillor Graham Jones said: "It's an exciting new style of living in Accrington and I want to see more people living in the Town Centre. The location is good and I like the fact that these stunning new apartments are not just high quality but very affordable and available to everyone at the same time. We are not giving anyone an unfair advantage."
His Worshipful The Mayor, Councillor Anthony Dobson added: "The Council is proud to be a positive partner in this fantastic development which will see a new and more stylish option for residents of our Borough and which will be, I believe, of interest to others who may only work in our Borough. The Partnership we have has done much good work in the past and we will continue to see the fruits of it in the future".
Details of the Waterside Web Site and contact telephone number will be published this week and reservations for viewings and sales will commence on Friday the 31st. August at mid-day.
