Barratt East new showhome in Prestonpans entices modern families

Barratt Homes East has opened a stunning new show home at its development of four, five and six bedroom homes at Amberlea in Prestonpans, East Lothian.

Located close to Musselburgh, and offering an easy commute to Edinburgh, the stylish homes at Amberlea offer flexible, modern family living with a spacious lounge, quality fitted breakfast kitchen and two ensuite bedrooms all contained within a luxurious three storey property.

The interior design of the show home reflects today’s modern family, with a variety of bedroom options and a bold and rich colour palette including the timeless combination of gold and black, reinforcing the feeling of decadence.
This contemporary colour combination can be first seen in the dining room on a feature wall which gives the room high impact and feeling of richness.

The theme is continued from the living areas to the bedrooms. The elegant style in the master bedroom is noticeable in the silk fabrics in gold and black with layered gold bedding and striking gold textured wallpaper behind the bed.

The other bedroom featuring an ensuite has been designed to suit today’s fashion conscious teenage girl who relishes her own space. The look of the room has been based on the iconic colour palette of Coco Chanel with a black and white base. Audrey Hepburn memorabilia has been used to accessorise the room giving a classic and stylish look.

One of the other bedrooms has been designed with a younger boy in mind. The bedroom is themed with a fabric from Glasgow-based Voyage. A 'gangsta rap' look has been perfected with denim pocket fabrics and gangsta rappers and gold bling on the check and stripe fabrics, giving the room its own identity where the children can relax.

Commenting Anne Ross, sales director at Barratt Wilson Homes East, said: “We are delighted with our new show home in Prestonpans. East Lothian has so much to offer new home buyers. With excellent access to Edinburgh by road or rail from nearby bus and train stations it’s the ideal location for families who want the benefits of the city – but from a distance. It also meets the needs of commuters. 
“Musselburgh is just a short distance away has a large selection of shops, restaurants and a leisure centre making Amberlea perfect for a family to grow and relax.”
When complete Amberlea will be a new community consisting of 65 family homes, a mixture of 4, 5 & 6 bedroom homes, with prices from £210,995. Part exchange and other incentives are available.
