In a significant move that promises to bolster the housing market and community infrastructure in Lancashire, Bellway has successfully acquired 12 acres of prime land in Great Eccleston, paving the way for the construction of a landmark 228-home development, Alderstone Park. Nestled between Garstang Road and Copp Lane, this ambitious project will enhance the area’s architectural landscape and contribute to its social fabric.
Alderstone Park is envisioned as a picturesque enclave of two, three, four, and fivebedroom homes, each thoughtfully designed to embody Bellway’s Artisan Collection’s hallmark of luxury and modernity. The development will feature a diverse array of detached and semi-detached properties, catering to a wide spectrum of homebuyers. Each residence will boast a private garden and one or two dedicated parking spaces, amidst a setting enriched with landscaped greenery and communal open spaces.
The project has received the green light from planning authorities and is part of a broader initiative to introduce new homes and community amenities to the region. With the construction phase scheduled to commence in spring, Bellway anticipates a vibrant interest in these homes, slated for sale later this year.
Jenny Bell, Sales Director at Bellway North West, shared her enthusiasm for the project: “We’re looking forward to getting started on site in the next few months. Recently voted one of the most desirable places to live in the UK, Great Eccleston offers the best of both worlds, an idyllic rural village location with great schools, pubs, a regular farmers’ market, and vibrant community spirit.”
“It is also very well known for the annual Great Eccleston Show that draws visitors from all over the North West. Close to stunning countryside yet within easy reach of the North West’s major cities, we anticipate significant interest in these new homes when they are launched for sale later this year.”
Great Eccleston is renowned for its annual show, which attracts visitors across the North West and offers a glimpse into the community’s rich cultural heritage. Its strategic location offers easy access to the North West’s major cities while retaining the charm of countryside living.
Bellway has pledged substantial financial contributions towards local education, healthcare, and infrastructure in a commendable commitment to the community. This includes over £1.1 million towards primary and secondary education facilities, nearly £950,000 for a Community Hall, and additional funds for local transport plans and medical services.
Alderstone Park is set to become a cornerstone of Great Eccleston’s community, with construction expected to span four years. The unveiling of showhomes this autumn will mark a significant milestone in this development, promising a future where luxury living meets community spirit in the heart of Lancashire.
