With various house sizes available, focus your finishing budget on key impact areas first. For 2-bedroom homes, prioritise the living areas with quality flooring throughout and coordinated window treatments. Larger 3 and 4-bedroom properties benefit from zoned approaches – consider different flooring materials to define spaces, with luxury vinyl or engineered wood in living areas and carpet in bedrooms. Garden landscaping varies significantly by plot size, so get quotes early. Built-in storage solutions work particularly well in Redrow homes due to their practical layouts. Consider professional decorating for feature walls to maximise the contemporary feel of these modern builds.
