Newton Park at Handley Chase

Development Overview

Newton Park at Handley Chase is a major new build homes development by national housebuilder Taylor Wimpey, located on Sandringham Way, off London Road, Sleaford, Lincolnshire (NG34 6AE/NG34 7LP). This community is delivering a selection of 2, 3, and 4-bedroom freehold properties designed for first-time buyers, growing families, and downsizers alike. The current price range for available new build homes at this site starts from approximately £215,000 for a three-bedroom semi-detached unit and extends up to approximately £350,000 for larger four-bedroom detached family homes.

Property Details

Properties at Newton Park focus on energy efficiency and modern layouts, with several homes achieving an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) Rating of B. Specific features, depending on the house type and plot, include PV solar panels, triple glazing, electric vehicle charging points, and a smart thermostat system. Tenure for properties is typically Freehold, though buyers are advised to confirm the specific tenure details and associated ground rent (if applicable) with the developer for their chosen plot. An example plot indicated an approximate annual estate management fee of £188.00 for communal area maintenance.

House styles include the double-fronted, three-bedroom 'The Easedale' which offers a dual-aspect lounge and a kitchen/dining area with access to the garden, as well as a main bedroom with an en-suite bathroom. For larger requirements, the four-bedroom 'The Midford' is available as both semi-detached and detached house types, often featuring a single detached garage, two reception rooms, and a separate downstairs study or snug area.

Location Benefits

Newton Park benefits from its location in the established market town of Sleaford, which provides a wealth of local amenities including supermarkets, independent shops, and healthcare facilities. The town centre is approximately a seven-minute drive from the development. Nearby educational provision is strong; local secondary schools such as St George’s Academy received a ‘Good’ Ofsted rating in June 2024, and the town is also home to Carre’s Grammar School and Kesteven and Sleaford High School. Highly-rated local primaries include Church Lane Primary School & Nursery.

Commuting is facilitated by excellent road links, with the A15 and A17 major routes accessible via a short drive. Sleaford train station offers direct services to major destinations, with the fastest rail journey to Lincoln Central taking approximately 29 minutes. Services also connect to Nottingham and Peterborough, as well as providing a link via Grantham to London King’s Cross in roughly an hour and 45 minutes.

Practical Information

The development is an ongoing project, with various plots in different stages of completion. Taylor Wimpey offers assistance schemes such as 'Easymover' for existing homeowners and 'Deposit Unlock', which allows qualifying buyers (first-time buyers and existing homeowners) to secure a new home up to £750,000 with a 5% deposit. Interested parties should contact the site sales office directly to confirm current plot availability, house type specifications, final pricing, and specific tenure details (Freehold/Leasehold) and the exact management fee for their chosen new build home.
