Firbeck Fields

Development Overview

Firbeck Fields is a new build homes development by Gleeson Homes, located on Doncaster Road in the village of Langold, Nottinghamshire (S81 9FR). The development consists of 3 and 4 bedroom new build properties, offering affordable homeownership in a semi-rural setting bordering scenic Nottinghamshire countryside. Current availability includes 3-bedroom and 4-bedroom house types, as the 2-bedroom homes are now sold out. Pricing for the remaining new build homes ranges from approximately £214,995 up to £299,995. The developer, Gleeson Homes, specialises in building low-cost, quality homes across the North of England, aiming to make homeownership accessible. Buyers should note that while Gleeson is a budget-focused builder, the homes are sold with a 10-year warranty, and the developer's track record, as with many affordable builders, features mixed customer feedback regarding snagging and post-completion service.
