About Stour View
Development Overview
Stour View is a new build development by national housebuilder Taylor Wimpey, comprising 288 high-quality homes located off Pioneer Way in Brantham, Suffolk (CO11 1FL). The development offers a collection of two, three, four, and five-bedroom homes, designed to cater to a range of homebuyers from first-time buyers to growing families and commuters. Available new build homes currently range in price from £335,000 to £490,000.
Taylor Wimpey, one of the UK’s largest residential developers, has achieved a 5-star customer satisfaction rating from the Home Builders Federation, signifying that over 90% of customers would recommend them. While this reflects a positive customer purchase experience, prospective buyers should note that independent reviews show mixed feedback regarding long-term aftercare and build quality, a common trend among volume housebuilders.
Property Details
The Stour View development offers 13 distinct home designs, including two-bedroom houses like 'The Canford', three-bedroom houses such as 'The Gosford' (semi-detached) and 'The Braxton Special' (three-storey mid-terrace), and larger four-bedroom detached homes like 'The Trusdale' and 'The Marford'. The properties feature flexible layouts and high-specification finishes. Specific designs, such as 'The Braxton Special', include a main bedroom with an en-suite situated on the second floor, offering additional seclusion. 'The Trusdale' four-bedroom detached home provides a family-friendly kitchen/dining area and a separate utility room off the kitchen.
All homes are built to modern energy standards, featuring smart heating systems, insulation, and lower emissions, which is an important consideration for eco-conscious buyers. Off-road parking is standard, with detached properties typically including a single garage and a driveway with space for two vehicles.
Location Benefits
Situated in the scenic village of Brantham, the development is strategically located for commuters. Excellent road links are provided via the A12, just four miles away, which facilitates travel to both Ipswich and Colchester. The nearby A14 is also easily accessible.
