About
Woodhouse Meadows We are excited to announce the launch of ‘Woodhouse Meadows’, a unique and bespoke development of 30 detached executive homes situated on the edge of the beautiful ‘National Forest’, near the highly regarded Leicestershire market town of Ashby-de-la-Zouch.
The site offers a choice of four-bedroom and five-bedroom detached homes that will be completed to a high specification, each boasting 2,000 - 2,300 square feet of living accommodation, with off-road parking, garaging, and lawned private gardens.
Purchasers have the opportunity at this early stage to have involvement in certain finishes, including kitchen, bathroom, and flooring choices.
The homes will be ‘A-rated’ for energy efficiency and boast wet-piped underfloor heating throughout the ground floor.
Of note will be the modern external design of each home, and contemporary interior finishes, with vaulted ceilings on the first floor and ‘inside out’ living areas leading out to each garden.
The site will benefit from having lovely green walks and a wildlife area for the use and benefit of its residents and to promote the occupancy of wildlife in this lovely semi-rural setting.
Further specification, site layout and plot build completion dates available by request through the joint selling agents, Smiths Property Experts and Frank Innes.
Plot 10 A five-bedroom, three-bathroom detached family home. The living accommodation is laid across two floors and extends to 2,278 square feet, including the integral garage.
There are two main reception rooms, including a superb open-plan ‘living’ kitchen, a utility room, and a downstairs WC.
Set back from the street, there is a private driveway, and to the rear are wrap-around private gardens.
