The Oaks at Taylor's Chase

Development Overview

The Oaks at Taylor's Chase, a development by national housebuilder Redrow Homes, is located on Omega Boulevard in Great Sankey, Warrington, Cheshire, WA5 3WF. This established community is a key component of the wider £1 billion Omega regeneration project on the site of the former Burtonwood Airbase, which is introducing significant investment, employment opportunities, and new infrastructure to the area. The Oaks phase of the Taylor's Chase development comprises 85 family homes, offering a mix of spacious three, four, and five-bedroom detached properties. The overall development won the Residential Development category in the 2020 UK Property Awards, reflecting the quality and thoughtful design of the scheme. As of the time of writing, the initial phase is nearing completion, and prospective buyers are advised to check directly with Redrow Homes for any final releases or available resale properties within the development.

Property Details

The properties at The Oaks belong to Redrow’s award-winning Heritage Collection, which is characterised by traditional, often arts and crafts-inspired, exterior architecture combined with contemporary, high-specification open-plan interiors. The collection focuses on providing generous internal and external space, a feature increasingly prioritised by modern homebuyers. House types have included the three-bedroom 'Oxford Lifestyle' and the three/four-bedroom 'Leamington Lifestyle.' Redrow’s ‘Lifestyle Homes’ are a specific offering where the upstairs layout is redesigned to feature fewer, yet significantly larger and more luxurious bedrooms, often including enhanced master suites with expansive dressing areas and larger en-suites, typically in place of a standard four-bedroom layout. Plot sizes range from approximately 546 sq ft for smaller units on the wider Taylor’s Chase site up to 2,030 sq ft for the larger detached designs. Historically, homes have been priced from approximately £393,995, providing a strong indication of the value of properties within this sought-after new build community.
