Mill View

Development Overview

Mill View is a new build development by Gleeson Homes, located on Ottringham Road, Keyingham, East Riding of Yorkshire, HU12 9RX. The site, a former 10.9-acre plant nursery, will feature a total of 147 new homes, offering a mix of two, three, and four-bedroom properties. Mill View is specifically marketed towards first-time buyers, second-steppers, and downsizers, with homes due to start from competitive prices of around £165,000. Sales are anticipated to launch, with show homes opening, in early 2026, following planning consent received in December 2024.

Property Details

The development will feature a variety of house types, including semi-detached and detached homes designed for affordable, modern living. Specific new build house designs planned for Mill View include: the two-bedroom semi-detached style (with one bathroom), the three-bedroom detached 'Calry' (with two bathrooms), the four-bedroom detached 'Broadale' and 'Cavan' (both with two bathrooms), and the three-bedroom semi-detached 'Keady' (with two bathrooms). As a Gleeson development, the properties are constructed to be significantly more energy-efficient than older stock, with the average home requiring 49% less energy to heat and power than a second-hand property. The developer's model is focused on providing homes that a couple earning the National Living Wage can afford. However, prospective buyers should note that while the structure is often described as 'solid,' Gleeson is considered a budget builder, and finishes are generally basic, which some reviews note may require initial snagging or future upgrades. Each home comes with a two-year builder warranty and an eight-year NHBC insurance guarantee.

Location Benefits

Keyingham is a picturesque village approximately 10 miles east of Kingston upon Hull city centre. The location offers a balanced village lifestyle with excellent road and public transport access to the city and the coast. The A1033 road provides a direct route, allowing for a typical 25-minute drive to Hull. Public transport is facilitated by East Yorkshire bus routes X7, 72, and 75, which run through the village, connecting residents directly to Hull Interchange and the seaside town of Withernsea. The nearest bus stop, Keyingham A1033, is a short walk from the main village amenities. The nearest mainline train station is Hull.

Local amenities within Keyingham village include a Co-operative food store, a doctor’s surgery, a newsagent, a butchers, and local pubs such as The Ship Inn and The Blue Bell. Education is served by Keyingham Primary School (Age Range 3-11), which received an Ofsted rating of 'Good' in its July 2024 inspection. A key community investment of the Mill View project is the addition of a new pedestrian crossing on Ottringham Road, aimed at easing access to the school for residents. Furthermore, the development's Section 106 agreement allocates over £198,000 towards recreational facilities in the local area.

Practical Information

The initial pricing for two, three, and four-bedroom new build homes starts from approximately £165,000. Pricing for specific named house types (e.g., Calry, Broadale) is to be confirmed closer to the sales launch in early 2026. Gleeson Homes focuses on making homeownership accessible, and prospective buyers are encouraged to contact the developer directly for updates on current price lists, available incentives, and to register interest for the 2026 launch. Viewing arrangements for the show homes will be available following the official sales launch. All details are subject to the current build and sales timeline.
