Description
Park View is a collection of individually-designed homes situated off the tree-lined boulevard of Lickey Road, which sweeps up to the entrance of the Lickey Hills Country Park.
The exclusive new collection of houses and apartments by St. Modwen Homes also benefit from being in a privileged position adjacent to the 135 acre Cofton Park, which dates back to the Georgian era.
Design and landscaping are prioritised at Park View, creating an aspirational new community that will feel like home from the moment you enter your new living space.
Setting the bar for quality new homes in Longbridge, Park View has been designed to ensure you enjoy a sense of pride in your new surroundings.
St. Modwen passionately applies its approach to sustainable development at all stages of work: not only in the use of land and buildings, but also in planning, design and construction methods.
St. Modwen’s overriding aim is to minimise waste, reduce water and energy consumption, prevent pollution, protect natural habitats, and to enhance the quality of life for everyone in the communities it builds in.
The houses and apartments at Park View have been designed to the Code for Sustainable Homes Level 3, ensuring residents will enjoy the benefits of living in an efficient, well-designed home. High levels of insulation and water saving measures help to reduce energy consumption and lower household bills.
Each house has a water collector in the garden, enabling rain water harvesting to take place. Some homes also benefit from garden sheds as standard, which act as ideal bike storage (sales assistants can provide details of applicable plots).

About St Modwen Properties Plc
St. Modwen is a regeneration specialist operating through a network of regional offices in all sectors of the property industry. These regional offices enable the company to understand local needs and to exercise on the spot control. We work in partnership with private and public sector organisations, continually mindful of the impact of our developments on the communities in which we operate.
The company’s operational strategy is based on a “hopper” of future developable land, and on marshalling that land through the planning and development process into a reliable stream of profits. The company focuses on four particular areas of specialisation: Town centre regeneration, Partnering industry in its restructuring, Brownfield land renewal and Heritage restoration.
Many centres that were developed during the 1960s and 1970s now require substantial refurbishment and updating to meet the demands of the contemporary shopper, to accommodate new trends in town centre living, and to bring back into these centres community and business uses.
St Modwen has substantial experience in revitalising town centres, and is currently engaged on a number of such schemes, including major projects at Edmonton Green, Farnborough, Skelmersdale and Wembley.
St. Modwen's portfolio currently comprises over 5,000 developable acres and 18 town centre schemes.
