Ask appoints Countrywide



Ask Developments has appointed Countrywide Land and New Homes to market the new apartments in phase two of Eden Square in Urmston town centre.

Bridgfords, on Crofts Bank Road in Urmston, is part of the Countrywide group and will be responsible for all residential enquiries.

In total, the scheme will deliver 76 one and two bedroom apartments in the heart of Urmston's new retail quarter.

The first phase of 64 apartments was completed late 2009 and there are six apartments remaining for sale.

The 10 two-bedroom apartments in phase two are now available for sale, with one apartment already exchanged. Prices start from £135,000.

The multi-million pound regeneration of Urmston town centre is being undertaken by Ask Developments in partnership with Trafford Council to deliver Eden Square as a thriving retail and residential centre in the heart of the local community and to spearhead further regeneration in the town.

Work is expected to commence on phase two of the residential scheme late summer 2011.

Sian Pitt, head of sales at Ask Developments, said: “The apartments in phase one of Eden Square have proved extremely popular and a fantastic opportunity to get a foot on the property ladder.

“There are only a few apartments remaining in phase one and we have already exchanged contracts on the first property in phase two. We expect there to be high interest in the remaining apartments which is why we have teamed up with Countrywide Land and New Homes.”

Jan Welsh, area director, Countrywide Land and New Homes, said: “Countrywide Land and New Homes is delighted to have been instructed by Ask to market the properties at Eden Square in Urmston, with the support of our local Bridgfords branch.

“Bridgfords is a well known brand in Urmston and the prominent position of our branch in the town centre provides an ideal opportunity to generate enquiries for the development.

“There was strong demand for the properties in the first phase and, taking into consideration the location and the quality of product, we expect a strong demand for the remaining apartments. The development provides a unique opportunity to enjoy city living without the city living expenditure and is ideally positioned for commuting with excellent transport links.”
