The Avenue at Thorpe Park, Leeds

Development Overview

The Avenue at Thorpe Park is a new build homes development by Redrow Homes, located at Barrington Way, off William Parkin Way, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS15 8AD. This residential phase is a core part of the larger Thorpe Park Leeds masterplan, which integrates commercial, residential, and extensive leisure facilities into a single, comprehensive community to the east of Leeds city centre. The development features a selection of two, three, and four-bedroom properties, primarily drawn from Redrow’s Arts and Crafts inspired Heritage Collection, alongside a small number of contemporary designs. Indicative pricing for new build homes in the development has historically ranged from approximately £263,000 for smaller house types to over £417,000 for three and four-bedroom detached styles, with current availability and specific prices requiring direct inquiry.

Property Details

Properties at The Avenue have been available as two, three, and four-bedroom houses, including specific styles like the three-bedroom detached 'Amberley' and the two-bedroom 'Buxton'. The homes are generally characterised by spacious layouts, such as the three-bedroom detached styles featuring an open-plan kitchen and dining area extending the full width of the property, separate lounges, and main bedrooms with en-suite facilities. A focus on modern specification is evident, with some properties designated as 'Eco Electric' homes, incorporating energy-efficient features such as air source heat pumps, underfloor heating, and pre-installed ultrafast broadband connectivity. Redrow Homes is a large-scale developer with a reputation for high-quality design, having consistently received a high star rating for customer satisfaction, though potential buyers should review individual site-specific feedback regarding post-sale service and snagging.
