The development comprises a varied mix of two, three, and four-bedroom properties, offering both terraced and detached house types.

Property Details

The Stilton Gate development features a range of specific house designs, including the two-bedroom semi-detached 'Baker' house type and larger four-bedroom detached homes such as 'The Pargeter'. The properties are generally finished to a high standard, with specific plots often including modern kitchens, contemporary bathroom suites, fitted flooring, and private parking spaces (e.g., two spaces for a three-bedroom end-terrace plot). Certain phases of the development were available through the Shared Ownership scheme, exemplified by a three-bedroom end-terrace house advertised at £110,250 for a 35% share. Current specifications and available incentives should be confirmed directly with the Bellway sales office.
