About the Development

Located to the north of Stotfold and surrounded by open fields and farmland, Ivel Gardens enjoys a delightful rural setting. Yet at the same time, Central London is just 40minutes away by direct train, offering you the very best of both worlds, with country charm and city culture in abundance.
Coming soon, subject to planning, Ivel Gardens will provide much needed family homes. You can choose from two, three or four-bedroom homes from Redrow’s award winning Heritage Collection, combining classic Arts and Crafts architecture with modern, family friendly interiors.
With such a superb location, this is sure to be a sought-after development, so register your interest today and put yourself at the front of the queue for news and new plot releases. Remember, you only need 5% deposit to secure your new home near Letchworth with Help to Buy, so you could be moving sooner than you think.

Dining

The great thing about a semi-rural location is the number of quality country pubs to choose from, all offering great food. Try the Tudor Oaks Lodge, The Fox and Duck or The White Horse in Arlesey, as well as the Stag and The Chequers nearer to town.
Stotfold is also home to the India Lodge, with Dine Bangla, The Grapevine and Clifton Cusine all close by and highly recommended.

Education

Country locations often lack the kind of schools you’d like for your children, but not Stotfold. Here, the local primary, Roecroft Lower School, is rated outstanding across the board, giving your little ones the very best start in life.
Older pupils have a range of options, with Etonbury Academy in nearby Arlesey and the good rated St Mary’s CofE Academy both easy to reach from Ivel Gardens. For a more vocational approach, The Academy of Central Bedfordshire in Stotfold offers a wide range of work-related courses, while North Hertfordshire College in nearby Letchworth provides further education.
There are a number of universities within commuting distance of the development, for stay at home students who want to cut down on costs, with all the major London and Cambridge colleges also within reach.
