Sands Reach

Development Overview

Sands Reach is a new build homes development by Gleeson Homes, located on Hollym Road in the seaside town of Withernsea, East Riding of Yorkshire (HU19 2PJ). The development focuses on delivering affordable properties, primarily targeting first-time buyers, second-steppers, and downsizers.

The development offers a mix of property types, including 2, 3, and 4 bedroom houses, as well as 2 bedroom bungalows. Current available pricing starts from £165,995 for 3 bedroom homes and from £240,995 for 4 bedroom homes. Two-bedroom property availability is currently listed as 'Coming Soon'. All properties at Sands Reach are offered on a Freehold basis.

Property Details

The properties at Sands Reach include a range of styles such as semi-detached and detached homes. Specific house types include the ‘Brandon’, a 3 bedroom detached house listed at approximately £203,995, and the ‘Dublin’, a 4 bedroom detached house, available from around £249,995. The ‘Calry’ is a 3 bedroom home featuring a bright living room, a contemporary kitchen-diner with French doors to the garden, and an integral garage, with the main bedroom benefiting from a private en-suite bathroom.

All Gleeson homes at this development include a specific standard specification designed for practicality and efficiency. This includes an open-plan kitchen-diner, a white Ideal Standard bathroom suite, and a modern heating system, which is either a high-efficiency combination boiler or air source heat pump, depending on the plot. Externally, all homes come with practical features as standard, such as turf to the front and rear gardens, full 6ft timber fencing, an outside tap, and a gate. Gleeson states their new build properties require on average 49% less energy to heat and power compared to a second-hand home.
