Silk Woods by Berkeley Homes · Ascot, Berkshire SL5 7LE

Silk Woods is a recently completed, high-specification new build homes development by Berkeley Homes, located in a sought-after private, leafy setting within Ascot, Berkshire (SL5 7LE). This exclusive collection, now fully sold and completed, consists of a limited number of striking contemporary and individually designed family residences. The development is situated within a mature landscape, offering exceptional privacy in a highly desirable residential area adjacent to the Crown Estate’s land.

The successful completion and prompt sell-out of all properties underscore the demand for quality new build homes in the Ascot market. Berkeley Homes, the developer, holds a strong reputation in the UK market. The company was recently named the UK’s top homebuilder for build quality by HomeViews, achieving a high build quality score based on verified resident reviews. Berkeley specialises in creating lasting communities on brownfield land, a commitment reflected in its WhatHouse? Gold Award for Best Large Housebuilder. This track record provides contextual confidence regarding the construction standards and long-term management of the Silk Woods estate. Properties within Silk Woods were architecturally distinct, exemplified by house types such as 'Burnside House' and 'Foxlaw House'. The design brief focused on contemporary aesthetics and exceptionally high internal specifications, common to Berkeley's executive developments. While all homes are now occupied, the properties typically featured generous living spaces, high-end fitted kitchens, luxury bathrooms, and extensive private gardens appropriate for the Ascot area. Specific details on original bedroom counts and exact floor plans are proprietary and should be obtained from local resale agents for any properties becoming available on the open market. Silk Woods benefits significantly from its position in Royal Ascot. The location provides direct access to over 1,000 acres of the Crown Estate’s stunning landscape, offering opportunities for walking, cycling, and leisure. The area is also known for its gilded social scene, including the nearby Royal Ascot Racecourse. Transport connectivity is excellent: Ascot railway station is a short drive away, providing a direct South Western Railway service to London Waterloo with a fastest journey time of approximately 52-55 minutes.

Local amenities are comprehensive. The nearby High Street features everyday convenience shopping, including a Tesco Express (SL5 7HG), Sainsbury’s Local, and a Waitrose & Partners supermarket.
