The new build homes in this development are currently marketed with a price range from £332,500 up to £720,000 for open market sales. The site is being developed in phases, with Phase 3 now launched, and includes infrastructure improvements such as a new link road and a roundabout on the A48 to manage access and traffic flow. Clare Garden Village offers a selection of smartly designed new build homes comprising 3, 4, and 5 bedrooms. Specific house styles available include the 3-bedroom semi-detached Rosedale, and 4-bedroom detached types such as the Midford, Whitford, Langdale, and Fakenham, alongside executive 5-bedroom detached homes like the Lavenham and Mappleton. The architectural design features a mixture of shearstone, red brick, and various colours of rough cast renders, providing varied street scenes. Internally, properties are built with concrete details like open-plan kitchen/breakfast/family areas, separate utility rooms, dedicated studies (or separate dining rooms), and PV Solar Panels as standard features. All homes come with a 10-Year NHBC Warranty. Many new homes on the development are rated EPC A or B, a factor that can save buyers up to an estimated £979 annually on bills compared to older properties.
