Clarence Fields by Redrow Homes, Wigston

Development Overview

Clarence Fields is an established new build community located on Welford Road, Wigston, Leicestershire LE18 3UA, comprising 42 high-specification homes built by Redrow Homes East Midlands. The development features a focused collection of three- and four-bedroom detached and semi-detached properties. These new build homes are drawn from Redrow’s highly regarded ‘Heritage Collection,’ which is characterised by traditional, often 1930s-inspired, exteriors combined with contemporary, open-plan interior layouts. Initial pricing for the development was released in late 2020, starting from approximately £334,950 for a three-bedroom property (contact the sales office for current availability and exact pricing on remaining plots). The developer's reputation is strong, with the community receiving a high design rating of 4.3 out of 5.0 from verified residents.

Property Details

The development primarily features spacious three and four-bedroom house types, designed to accommodate a range of buyers from first-time movers to growing families. Notable house styles include the three-bedroom ‘Amberley’ show home. Specific features of these property types often include a large, open-plan kitchen and dining area and a separate, expansive lounge. The emphasis on flexible living is demonstrated by the design of rooms which can easily function as a dedicated home office or wellness space. Practical luxury is standard, with the ‘Amberley’ design incorporating three generously-sized bedrooms, a master bedroom with twin built-in wardrobes, and a large en-suite. The development aims for a bespoke feel compared to other volume builders, contributing to an attractive street scene.

Clarence Fields is situated approximately five miles south of Leicester city centre, offering a balance of suburban tranquility and city access. The location is strategically positioned for commuters, providing excellent road links and fast access to the M1 motorway network.
