Leestone Park is a new build homes development by Redrow Homes, situated on Heath Road in Leighton Buzzard, Bedfordshire, LU7 3AD. The development is an integral phase in the wider re-imagining of the area’s former quarries, delivering high-quality family housing to the South Midlands region.

Development Overview Leestone Park comprises a selection of three and four-bedroom houses from Redrow's renowned Heritage Collection. This architectural style combines classic exteriors, inspired by the Arts and Crafts movement, with modern, energy-efficient open-plan interior layouts. Current available properties at Leestone Park include the four-bedroom detached 'Cambridge' house type, with prices starting from £568,000. A specific plot of the Cambridge house is currently available at £580,000. For an estimated price on three-bedroom properties and other house types, prospective buyers should contact the developer for details.

Property Details The available four-bedroom 'Cambridge' model exemplifies the specification at Leestone Park. Key features include an open-plan kitchen/family/dining area, a separate spacious lounge, and an en-suite to the main bedroom. Notably, these new build homes are fitted with eco-friendly modern technology, including Air Source Heat Pumps for heating, and underfloor heating installed as standard throughout the ground floor, addressing current demands for energy efficiency.

Location Benefits and Transport Links Leestone Park is positioned approximately 1.5 miles from the facilities of Leighton Buzzard town centre. The location offers excellent commuter access, with Leighton Buzzard railway station situated just 1.1 miles away. Direct train services from this station provide one of the development’s main benefits, offering a fastest journey time to London Euston of just 30 minutes, with average journey times around 46-51 minutes, running frequently via West Midlands Railway. Road access is facilitated by the local road network connecting to major arteries like the A5 and the M1 motorway, enabling straightforward travel to Milton Keynes and further afield.

Local bus routes, including the 150, X4, L2, L3, and L5, serve Heath Road, providing local connectivity to the town and surrounding villages. Local amenities on Heath Road include The Stag pub, with a wider range of shops and restaurants available in the nearby town centre.

St George's Lower School is approximately 0.3 miles away, Dovery Academy is 0.4 miles away (rated Outstanding at its last inspection), and Vandyke Upper School is 0.6 miles away (rated Good). The wider development has reserved land for the future provision of a new lower school, a local centre with retail and community uses, and a dedicated country park featuring allotments and play areas.

Purchasers are advised to conduct due diligence, as is standard with any new build, noting that while the developer often receives high praise, customer reviews across the industry are mixed, with snagging and aftercare subject to individual site management.
