Ask Life - New life for Ashton

Plans Approved for New Apartments at St Petersfield
Ask Life has been given the go-ahead for its first phase of 72 stunning city-style apartments, to be called Liberty at St Petersfield, in the up-and-coming district of Ashton-under-Lyne, Tameside.
Plans will also be submitted shortly for a further 92 apartments on the site of the soon-to-be vacated Ashton Fire Station on Hodgson Street, which will be demolished once the station has relocated.
The Ask Life apartments will form an integral part of a new £42m urban quarter which is part of the larger scheme currently being developed by Ask Life’s innovative parent company, Ask Developments. The scheme has newly completed public landscaped areas, overlooking striking water fountains.
The one and two bedroom apartments, with prices starting from around £99,950 will be developed in the first of two separate blocks, all featuring fully-fitted luxury bathrooms with ceramic wall and floor tiling and modern contemporary kitchens, complete with stainless steel appliances. The apartments will be built in accordance with Ask Life’s quality and attention to detail - and will include features such as extra room in the living area, thanks to the elimination of ‘dead’ corridor space, with most apartments benefiting from balconies.
The scheme’s location offers easy access to the transport links into Manchester city centre and is close to the M60 motorway network and Ashton train station.
Liberty at St Petersfield will also benefit from a new sales and marketing suite. This is set to open for sales of the apartments in September 2007.
Duncan Bowman, Director of Ask Life said: “Our residential scheme complements the overall St Petersfield scheme perfectly and we want to help create a new district that people will be proud to live and work in.
“The Liberty at St Petersfield apartments will benefit from the excellent location and stunning landscaping. As with all Ask Life schemes, they will be of a very high standard but within a price-range that the majority, not the few, can afford.”
Work on the first phase of the residential development will begin in Autumn 2007 with the second phase expected to start in 2008.
Once complete, the overall St Petersfield scheme, which is being delivered through a public/private partnership between Tameside Council, Ask Developments, Northwest Regional Development Agency (NWDA) and English Partnerships, will provide 280,000 sq ft of high quality office space, and retail and leisure amenities totalling 400,000 sq ft.
