Practical Information

The most recently confirmed available pricing is for a 4-bedroom detached ‘Balmoral’ house type, which was listed at approximately £649,950 to £667,000, although final pricing should be confirmed directly with the developer. The developer, Redrow Homes, holds a reputation for building higher-quality new build homes among volume housebuilders, with awards and a generally positive market perception, though as with all new developments, prospective buyers are advised to conduct due diligence. As availability is extremely limited (with just a few four-bedroom new build homes remaining), all viewing arrangements and inquiries regarding final prices, floorplans, and completion status must be directed to the Redrow sales team at the related Hackwood Grange development or by telephone.
