Development Overview

Willows Green is a completed and fully occupied development of 26 detached new build homes by national housebuilder Redrow Homes, located off Parkhurst Avenue in the desirable area of Clayton-le-Woods, near Leyland, Lancashire. The development offers a small, close-knit community of exclusively three and four-bedroom detached family properties. This sought-after new build estate officially sold out in November 2022, meaning prospective buyers should monitor the local resale market for current availability.

Redrow Homes holds a strong industry standing, having consistently achieved the Home Builders Federation (HBF) five-star rating, which is awarded when more than 90% of customers state they would recommend the builder to a friend. New-build properties here are covered by the remainder of the NHBC Buildmark 10-year structural warranty, offering two years direct coverage from Redrow and eight years from the NHBC, a beneficial detail for any resale purchase.

Property Details

All properties at Willows Green are drawn from Redrow's Arts & Crafts-inspired Heritage Collection, characterised by traditional-looking exteriors combined with modern, high-specification interiors. The original release included popular four-bedroom styles such as 'The Cambridge' and 'The Shaftesbury'. The Shaftesbury, for example, features a full-depth lounge, a separate open-plan kitchen/dining/family room, a utility room, and a downstairs cloakroom. Upstairs, the main bedroom includes a private en-suite. Across the house types, concrete features include quality kitchens with top-name integrated appliances, stylish bathrooms, and elevated design elements such as higher ceilings, taller doors, and deep skirting boards. The focus on design ensured that all homes were provided with private outdoor space and excellent energy efficiency.
