The development is set within approximately 17.5 acres of dedicated open space, providing a significant green buffer for residents. As of the current date, the site is over 95% sold, focusing primarily on high-specification 4 and 5-bedroom detached family homes.

Prices for the final release of properties currently range From approximately £570,000 to £925,000.

David Wilson Homes is recognised for its high build quality and customer satisfaction, having been awarded the maximum five stars in the Home Builders Federation's (HBF) National New Home Customer Satisfaction Survey every year since 2010.

Property Details

Available homes are predominantly detached, featuring house types such as 'The Kirkdale' (4-bedroom, examples From £645,000), 'The Hollinwood' (4-bedroom, examples at £590,000), and the executive 'The Manning' (5-bedroom, examples From £920,000). Smaller properties, including 1, 2, and 3-bedroom homes, were part of earlier phases but are now largely sold out.

Key features in the available 4 and 5-bedroom house types include detached layouts with a garage and parking, open-plan kitchen and dining areas with French doors to the garden, a separate utility room, a dual-aspect lounge, and en-suite bathrooms to the main bedrooms. The homes are designed to be energy efficient, featuring highly thermally efficient insulation and argon-filled double glazing, which the developer suggests can lead to significant savings on annual energy bills compared to an updated older property.
