Pilgrims Chase

Development Overview

Pilgrims Chase is a new build homes development by Redrow Homes, located on Sundon Road in the medieval village of Harlington, Bedfordshire (LU5 6LW). The scheme offers a selection of 3, 4, and 5-bedroom properties, forming part of Redrow’s 'Heritage Collection,' which blends traditional 19th and early 20th-century architectural detailing with modern, energy-efficient specifications. The development structure comprises terraced, end-of-terrace, and detached houses.

Currently available new build homes at Pilgrims Chase range from the 3-bedroom ‘Bakewell Mid’ terraced house, starting from £382,000, up to the 5-bedroom detached homes priced from £825,000. Other property types include the 3-bedroom ‘Stratford Lifestyle’ detached house from £540,000 and the 3-bedroom ‘Oxford Lifestyle’ detached house from £610,000. Expected completion dates for some plots are scheduled for August 2025.

Property Details

All properties at Pilgrims Chase are designed as 'Eco Electric' homes, incorporating high-specification sustainability features to promote energy conservation. Key specifications include superior insulation, installation of air source heat pumps for efficient heating, and underfloor heating as a standard feature across the entire ground floor. The design focuses on light-filled rooms, generous internal space, and ample private outdoor areas. Redrow Homes is a major UK housebuilder with a reputation for aesthetically appealing design; however, prospective buyers should conduct thorough independent due diligence as post-completion customer reviews for the developer have occasionally cited recurring issues with snagging and remedial work on other developments.
