Location and beautiful artisanship; a Banner home is luxury redefined. Situated in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Covent Gardens is an enchanting and contemporary development of only eight detached and eight semi-detached private homes. The village harks back to a bygone time with its cosy pubs, local greengrocer, family butcher and cake shop setting the scene. Covent Garden provides the best elements of rural life with convenient links to some of the most popular commuter destinations in the Midlands. Living just half a mile from the Colwall Rail Station, your weekday travels will be effortless, but it will be the weekends that will make you truly appreciate your new home. The area is peerlessly equipped for those who enjoy the great outdoors, but on those occasions where you can ignore the call of the wild, each home has been expertly designed and meticulously finished to be your ideal family home. Great features such as integrated appliances and an en-suite to the master bedroom come as standard, but the real benefits are things you may not even notice until you move in. High levels of insulation together with dual flush mechanisms to the bathrooms will mean that your utility bills are kept low. The multi-point locking system on the front door will keep you and your family secure. Finally, structural elements of your home will be backed by a 10-Year Warranty from the NHBC for peace of mind.

Welcome to the good life. [3]

Colwall, Herefordshire Nestling in the lee of the beautiful rolling Malvern Hills, on the border of Herefordshire and Worcestershire is the enchanting village of Colwall. The Malvern Hills are famous for their dramatic natural beauty and the pure spring water that bubbles up from them. This majestic area has been designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in recognition of the importance of preserving this unique and unspoilt landscape. There are bridleways, cycle paths, hill forts, priories and castles that all make for a wonderful day out. For lovers of cricket, Colwall Cricket Club is one of the prettiest grounds in the country. Covent Gardens has a small gym very nearby and is conveniently located for Worcestershire Golf Club, one of the oldest in the country, while the nearby historic Victorian spa town of Malvern provides a more extensive range of shops and recreational facilities including a gym and swimming pool. Families with young children are spoiled for choice, with Colwall Church of England Primary School just over a mile from Covent Gardens catering for students aged four to eleven. The Downs Malvern College Preparatory School, even closer to home on Brockhill Road, has a proud tradition of educating students to age 13. There are a plethora of well-regarded secondary schools in nearby Malvern, Worcester, Hereford and Cheltenham. For commuters to Worcester, Hereford, Cheltenham, Gloucester and Birmingham travel could

The smarter way to buy a home Buying new rather than second hand makes sound financial sense, offers peace of mind and is a hassle-free process. There is no need to allocate extra money for repairs or decoration, the building is protected with the NHBC 10-year warranty, energy and water costs will be comparatively low and your new home will be chain-free, ready and waiting for your arrival. All our new homes are built to exceptional standards and come with high specification security, up to date technology features, low maintenance materials, pristine bathrooms and kitchens fitted with top quality appliances. Our customer service is fundamentally important at Banner. We provide a detailed programme to guide you through the purchase process that begins on reservation with a

comprehensive manual designed to answer any questions you may have. When your new home is ready you’ll be invited to a Demonstration and Inspection Meeting to show you how everything works and to make sure you’re totally happy with the level of finish prior to completion. At the Handover Meeting you’ll receive a Handover Pack, contact details for our customer services team and a list of emergency numbers for 24-hour support. Once you move in, we will follow up with a Welcome Pack and a call to ensure you’re completely happy or to address any issues that may have arisen. Finally, the Customer Services team will ensure you remain content in your new Banner home for many years after completion.
