Germany Beck

Germany Beck is a new build property development by Charles Church, the premium brand of Persimmon Homes, located on Bishopdale Way in the highly sought-after village of Fulford, North Yorkshire (YO19 4AE). The development offers a collection of modern, energy-efficient new build homes, balancing tranquil village living with exceptional proximity to the vibrant city of York.

Development Overview

The scheme features a variety of two, three, and four-bedroom homes. Charles Church is an established nationwide housebuilder, consistently holding a 5-star customer satisfaction rating from the Home Builders Federation (HBF), a rating indicating that over 90% of customers would recommend them to a friend. However, prospective buyers should note the company's parent, Persimmon, has faced public scrutiny regarding quality control on some previous developments. The Germany Beck development is actively selling, with specific units currently showing estimated availability in July 2025, confirming the site is under construction with both off-plan and nearing-completion properties available for purchase.

Property Details

The development comprises a mix of semi-detached and detached house types designed for various buyer profiles, from first-time buyers and professionals to growing families. Currently available plots include: The two-bedroom 'Wistow' semi-detached homes, which feature an open-plan kitchen/dining room with French doors to the garden. Three-bedroom options, such as 'The Brandsby' and 'The Butterwick,' are also available, the latter featuring a bright, open-plan kitchen/dining room. Larger properties are represented by four-bedroom detached house types, including 'The Ripley'. The properties boast a high specification finish, though exact details on specific features and floor plans should be confirmed directly with the Charles Church sales team.
