Race is on for new homes at Goodwood

27th June 2008 Print
Bellway, which is creating a collection of new homes on one of England’s most prestigious Estates – Goodwood – is to open a show home on 28 June. Bellway South East is constructing 114 new homes on a corner of the Goodwood Estate in West Sussex. The eight-acre site at Westhampnett will provide a collection of elegantly designed homes that will be traditional with a contemporary edge.

The designs for The Grange at Westhampnett (the site name) will follow a strict Design Charter that reflects local Sussex vernacular architecture – including local brick and flint external finishes and specified colours for paintwork.

Those who move there will enjoy views of the South Downs and parts of the glamorous Goodwood Estate – home to horseracing, motor sport events, aeronautical activities, two golf courses, hotel & spa and an organic farm.

The 2, 3, 4 and 5 bedroom homes will be sold on a 250 year leasehold basis with the site owned by the Goodwood Estate Company Ltd. Goodwood will therefore be closely involved throughout construction and after completion.

Particular care has been invested in the landscaping of the site, which is in a wooded section of the Estate, with the retention of as many mature trees as possible and a specification in the Design Charter that only native British trees may be planted. The site will benefit from a central green and will include a children’s play area.

Sales Director of Merstham-based Bellway South East, Palvinder Calliste, said: “We are immensely proud to be working on this site and are thrilled to be opening a show home which is beautifully designed and will provide a feel of just how splendid living here at Westhampnett will be. As a developer, we are conscious of what an honour it is to have been selected to create this scheme and are conscious of our responsibility not just to the Goodwood Estate but also to the surrounding neighbourhood to create a truly elegant and desirable collection of new homes.

“One can rarely use the word ‘unique’ but in this case it is apt. I am not aware of any other development that combines such a level of rural tranquillity and village amenities, with the excitement of one of the world’s greatest sporting grounds, proximity to the lively and charming city of Chichester and to the coast.”

The homes include:

- two-bedroom apartments priced from £270,000
- three-bedroom houses priced from £440,000
- four bedroom townhouses and detached houses priced from £485,000.
