About Horwood Gardens
Horwood Gardens is a new build development by Ashberry Homes, situated on Gartree Road in the sought-after suburb of Oadby, Leicestershire (LE2 2FB). The overall scheme is a significant 310-home project, with Ashberry Homes contributing 117 new properties to the community. The development offers a diverse selection of energy-efficient new build homes, including contemporary terraced, semi-detached, and detached properties with configurations ranging from three to five bedrooms.
Named in honour of Arthur Horwood, the first curator of the University of Leicester’s Botanic Garden, the community balances modern living with a semi-rural backdrop. The developer, Ashberry Homes, has achieved a 5-star builder status for nine consecutive years in the national Home Builders Federation (HBF) awards, indicating that over 90% of their surveyed customers would recommend them to a friend. Available homes at Horwood Gardens currently include three, four, and five-bedroom house types. The final five-bedroom homes remain available, appealing to larger families or those requiring substantial space. For instance, 'The Vinca' is a four-bedroom detached home, detailed to feature an open-plan kitchen, family, and dining room with French doors to the rear garden, alongside separate dedicated living and dining rooms. The master bedroom in this house type includes both a dressing area and an en-suite, a feature also included in bedroom two, providing high-specification living space. Horwood Gardens is ideally positioned for both local and commuter travel. Major road links are facilitated by the nearby A6 dual carriageway, providing direct routes for drivers. For public transport users, the Arriva Midlands Line 31/31A/X31 bus service provides a frequent link to Leicester city centre. The journey from Oadby to Leicester’s Haymarket Bus Station takes approximately 19-20 minutes, with buses running every 15 minutes during the day. The nearest train stations are Leicester and South Wigston. Local amenities are comprehensive. Shopping options include the independent retailers at Stoughton Grange Shopping Village, while High Cross Mall in central Leicester offers a full range of high-street brands. The area is noted for its strong educational provision, with well-regarded schools such as Brocks Hill Primary School and Glenmere Community Primary School for younger pupils. Secondary options include Gartree High School and Beauchamp College. Manor High School is also locally recognised for being in the top 1% of schools nationally for progress. Leisure pursuits are catered for by the nearby Leicester Golf Centre and the 16-acre University of Leicester Botanic Garden. The development's position next to the Stoughton Grange rural centre enhances the semi-rural feel of the location. The development is currently in an advanced stage, with phase one largely complete and the exclusive second phase now launched. Interested parties are advised to contact the dedicated sales team at Horwood Gardens to confirm current plot-specific pricing, available house types, and specific completion dates, as incentives such as Stamp Duty contributions or cashback offers may be available on selected 'Ready When You Are' new build homes.
