About Beaulieu Gate

Beaulieu Gate, Springfield, Chelmsford

Development Overview

Beaulieu Gate is a new build homes development situated in the emerging Beaulieu district on the north-eastern edge of Chelmsford, Essex. Developed by Countryside Homes, a division of Vistry Group and a consistent 5-star Housebuilder as rated by the Home Builders Federation (HBF), the scheme delivers a mix of 1, 2, and 3 bedroom apartments alongside 2, 3, and 4 bedroom family houses. The overall Beaulieu masterplan is inspired by the architecture and landscape surrounding the adjacent New Hall School, a building of historic significance. The community is being designed around extensive parkland, meadows, and exemplar community facilities, including a dedicated neighbourhood centre.

Property Details and Pricing

The current phase at Beaulieu Gate focuses on modern, energy-efficient apartments, which are proving popular with first-time buyers and investors due to potential rental yields. Specific current pricing for apartments ranges from £220,000 for a 1-bedroom unit up to £340,000 for a 2-bedroom unit. While specific prices for all house types are on request, the wider development offers a range of traditionally designed houses up to 4 bedrooms. All new builds are marketed with a high specification as standard, removing the necessity for additional expense on upgrades. Interested parties should contact the developer for the current availability and pricing of 3 and 4 bedroom houses.

Location and Transport Connectivity

Beaulieu Gate is strategically positioned for both local and commuter travel. A major forthcoming infrastructure project, the new Beaulieu Park Station on the Great Eastern Main Line, is anticipated to open at the end of October 2025. This new station is planned to offer direct rail services, with an expected journey time of approximately 40 minutes to London Liverpool Street. Road connectivity is immediate, with the Beaulieu Parkway relief road, opened in 2023, providing a direct connection to Junction 19 of the A12 and onward links to the M11 and M25. Local public transport is managed by express bus routes C9 and C10 (First Essex), which link the development directly to the Chelmsford city centre and the original Chelmsford railway station.

Local Amenities and Services

Residents benefit from on-site, pre-planned community facilities. The Beaulieu Square neighbourhood centre provides everyday convenience, including a Sainsbury's Local, a Health Centre, and the popular independent coffee shop Coffee Squared Beaulieu, which also holds a license. Education is served by three planned on-site schools, including two primary schools and one secondary school. The Beaulieu Park School is located only 0.1 miles from the development. For retail and leisure, Chelmsford city centre is easily accessible and features major shopping areas like Bond Street, which houses a flagship John Lewis store and a Cineworld. Dining options within a short drive include the Michelin Guide-featured The Lion Inn in Boreham.
