The scheme comprises a selection of 3, 4, and 5-bedroom executive new build homes, set within the grounds of Wynyard Hall.

The development has been built by Charles Church, which currently holds a 5-star rating from the Home Builders Federation (HBF) for customer satisfaction. Purchasers should note that while the brand is marketed for its design and quality, it has, like many major developers, been subject to some public reports of quality and snagging issues on other developments.

Property Details The available new build homes include a mix of semi-detached and detached properties, with specific house types designed for family living. Examples of available homes include the 3-bedroom semi-detached Studland from £289,950, a variety of 4-bedroom detached homes starting from approximately £354,950, and the 5-bedroom detached Barmouth house type, which has been listed at prices such as £469,950. Key internal features across the house types are a focus on open-plan living and high-specification fixtures. Many homes feature a large open-plan kitchen/dining/family room, often with bi-fold doors providing direct access to the rear garden. Larger properties, such as the 5-bedroom Kingsand, are a classic double-fronted, three-storey design offering multiple en-suite bathrooms, with the main bedroom typically featuring a dedicated dressing room. Selected 5-bedroom designs also include an integrated double garage.
