New Phase Launched In Wichelstowe
Posted 13 June 2023 byÂ
Keith OsborneThe next phase of one of Swindon’s flagship new communities is taking shape, with two-, three- and four-bedroom homes are now available at Orchards View, Wichelstowe, on the southern outskirts of the town.
Prices for these first homes start at £299,995, and one- and two-bedroom apartments are set to be released later in the summer.
The Wichelstowe development is being built by Barratt Homes and David Wilson Homes in partnership with Swindon Borough Council and will deliver 3,000 new homes over the next 20 years, along with new schools and community facilities. The 250-hectare site on the southern edge of Swindon will include extensive open spaces, nature conservation areas, playing pitches and allotments.
Andrea Pilgrim, sales director for Barratt Homes Bristol, said: “This next phase of properties at Orchards View will continue to contribute significantly to the potential of Wichelstowe as a new and vibrant destination. It has quickly established itself as one of the most desirable postcodes in Swindon, offering energy efficient homes that are well connected to local amenities yet in easy reach of open space and all the benefits that brings.”
The wider Wichelstowe scheme offers brand new play areas, allotments and an orchard. A Waitrose supermarket, new schools and the Hall & Woodhouse Bar and Restaurant are also nearby.
As part of the neighbourhood, residents can enjoy 12km of new nature trails, play areas, 200 acres of open space and walks along the Wilts and Berks Canal. There is also a range of schools for children of all ages within easy reach. Junction 16 of the M4 and Swindon railway station are both within a ten-minute drive, providing easy access to Bristol and London.
The new homes are being sold from the sales office at Wichel Fields.
