Redrow Sycamore Manor

A housing development near Chorley has been named the best residential development in Lancashire at this year’s UK Property Awards.

Sycamore Manor, located in Whittle-Le-Woods, comprises a range of three- and four-bedroom properties in an exclusive, leafy location.

The development was designed and built by Redrow, and features within its popular arts and crafts inspired Heritage Collection. Prices currently start at £399,000.

The UK Property Awards are judged by an independent panel of over 80 industry experts and cover over 45 different architecture, interior design and development related categories.

Judging focuses on design, quality, service, innovation, originality, and commitment to sustainability. The judging panel is chaired by House of Lords members Lord Best and Lord Waverley.

Redrow was named as a winner across 11 categories the UK Property Awards and the home builder will find out on November 10 whether any of its winners has achieved the highest level of accolade – the coveted Five Star award – during the ceremony at The London Marriott Hotel, Grosvenor Square.

James Holmear, group sales director at Redrow, said: “Winning 11 UK Property Awards is a fantastic achievement and it is testament to the consistent quality of our developments and show homes across the country, which sets us apart from our competitors.

"Our awards include seven interior design categories for our individual show homes, which demonstrates the high level of our interior specification and design.

“We look forward to the ceremony on November 10 and are hoping to achieve some five-star awards, which will mean our winners go on to compete globally at the International Property Awards.”
