The Asps

Development Overview

The Asps is a substantial new build residential development located on Banbury Road, Warwick, Warwickshire, CV34 6ST. Developed by Taylor Wimpey as part of a larger, master-planned scheme of approximately 900 homes in conjunction with other consortium members, The Asps offers a comprehensive range of new build homes for the local market. The available properties range from 1 to 5 bedrooms, spanning terraced, semi-detached, and detached house types. Current pricing for the new build homes at The Asps starts from approximately £325,000 for a 2-bedroom property, extending up to approximately £680,000 for larger 4- and 5-bedroom detached family residences. The broader development plan includes significant community infrastructure, such as a proposed primary school, a local centre, and a Park & Ride facility with up to 500 spaces, designed to foster a vibrant, long-term community.

Property Details

The Asps offers a selection of carefully designed house styles, including the 2-bedroom ‘Ashenford’ terraced homes priced from around £325,000 and the 4-bedroom detached ‘Dunham’ house type, which has been listed for sale at approximately £550,000. Properties are being constructed to the latest energy efficiency standards, featuring solar panels, triple glazing, waste water retention systems, and car chargers as standard, offering homeowners demonstrable savings on utility costs compared to older properties. Interior specifications across many of the new build homes include modern white Roca sanitaryware in bathrooms and en suites, complemented by a fitted kitchen featuring Zanussi appliances, high-quality units, and worktops, with the option to personalise choices depending on the build stage. The development is also backed by the developer’s track record, with the site manager having received the NHBC Pride in the Job Quality Award for a third consecutive year, and homes come with a 10-year NHBC warranty.
