About Bellway at Linmere

Development Overview

Bellway at Linmere, part of the wider Linmere masterplan, is a collection of new build homes situated on Sundon Road, Houghton Regis, Bedfordshire, LU5 7AS, developed by Bellway Homes. The community offers a diverse range of 1 and 2-bedroom apartments, alongside 2, 3, and 4-bedroom terraced and semi-detached houses.

Developer Bellway Homes holds a 5-star rating from the Home Builders Federation (HBF) for the ninth consecutive year, reflecting a proven track record in customer service and quality. Prospective buyers should be aware that Bellway’s resident reviews are mixed, with an average rating of 3.94 out of 5.00 on some platforms, noting that while the designs are modern, some residents have reported needing persistence with aftercare and snagging.

Property Details

The available properties cater to various buyer profiles, ranging from first-time buyers to growing families. Named house types include the one-bedroom Chicksands apartments, the three-bedroom Cedar end-terrace home, the three-bedroom Chestnut mid-terrace, and the four-bedroom Wainwright semi-detached house. Many of the homes are available with Bellway's 'Good to Go' status, indicating a stress-free, chain-free move for selected plots. Current available prices start from £200,000 for the 1-bedroom Chicksands 6 apartment and £230,000 for the Chicksands 5 apartment. Prices for the larger three and four-bedroom homes are to be confirmed, and buyers should contact the sales office for the latest plot-specific pricing and availability.

Location Benefits

The development benefits from direct access to the new Linmere community infrastructure. For education, the on-site Thornhill Primary School (Silver Birch site) is open, providing a convenient local option for families. Local amenities are centred around The Farmstead community hub, which currently houses a café and bistro, ROAM Café and Bistro, offering everything from barista coffee to a full evening menu, alongside other retailers and a community hall. Green space is integrated into the plan, with 90 acres of open space in the surrounding Linmere area, including a children's adventure playground and a Village Green.
