Development Overview

Alconbury Weald II is a new build homes development by Redrow Homes, situated on Senliz Road in Alconbury, Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, PE28 4LY. This phase of the larger Alconbury Weald project features properties from Redrow’s award-winning Heritage Collection, which combines classic Arts and Crafts-inspired architecture with contemporary interiors. The development offers a comprehensive range of new homes, from two-bedroom terraced houses to five-bedroom detached family residences. Property prices currently available start from approximately £275,000 for a two-bedroom unit, extending to around £640,000 for five-bedroom detached models. Redrow Homes is a long-term partner in the Alconbury Weald masterplan, which is designed to integrate residential areas with employment, education, and open space.

Property Details

The development provides a mix of 2, 3, 4, and 5-bedroom homes, including the ‘Buxton’ (2-bedroom terraced), ‘Bakewell End’ (3-bedroom end-terrace), and the substantial ‘Highgate II’ (5-bedroom detached). The 5-bedroom Highgate II, for example, is priced at approximately £640,000 and features a separate lounge, an open-plan kitchen/family/dining area, an en-suite, and a walk-in wardrobe to the main bedroom, alongside a single garage. A 3-bedroom semi-detached 'Letchworth' or 'Letchworth II' model is available in the region of £372,000 to £380,000. All new build homes in the Heritage Collection are designed for modern living, featuring light and airy open-plan spaces, with the kitchen often forming the central hub.

Local amenities are a key feature of the wider development, which will eventually incorporate its own Town Centre hub, sports pitches, a health centre, and cafes. Over 600 acres of open space, parks, and woodlands are allocated within the development area. Education is served by the existing Ermine Street Church Academy (OFSTED 'Good'), and the long-term plan includes a total of three new primary schools and a secondary school.
