NEW computer generated images show what homes on the former Blue Bird toffee factory development in Hunnington will look like.
The first properties at the 86-home Harvino scheme were released for sale in September and now potential buyers can get an idea of what the street scenes and property frontages will look like.
Marie Richards, Sales Director for Bellway West Midlands, said: “These images show what our new homes here will look like and there is a range of styles among them.
“We know there is a lot of affection for the former Blue Bird factory.
“It inspired the name of the development, as Harvino was the original brand name of the toffee they made here.”
The development will feature two, three, four, and five-bedroom houses.
The former factory, which opened in 1927 but closed in 1998, was built by Harry Vincent, who founded the confectionery company.
Harry Vincent initially called the toffee Harvino but later changed the name to Blue Bird.
Blue Bird toffee was renowned not only for its creamy taste but also for its colourful tins which featured a swallow motif and are still sought after by collectors.
The listed Administration and Welfare Buildings on the former factory site are being retained and will be converted into 22 apartments by another developer.
