Devizes development nears halfway mark

Construction work is approaching the halfway stage at Bellway’s Quakers Walk development in Devizes.

When completed, the site will consist of 123 new homes, comprising 86 properties for private sale and 37 affordable homes for rent or shared ownership.

A total of 49 homes have now been built at the development, which is located off Quakers Road.

A further 27 homes have already been sold and are currently under construction. Building work is due to finish in autumn next year.

Christel Hawkins, Sales Manager for Bellway South West, said: “Construction work is progressing extremely well at Quakers Walk, with around 40 per cent of the homes at the development now built and occupied.

“There has been strong demand from a wide variety of buyers who have been attracted by the mix of two, three and four-bedroom houses available, as well as the site’s convenient location just over a mile from Devizes town centre.

“This has been reflected in the fact that almost half of the private homes have already been sold since the development’s launch in February last year.

“A new community is beginning to form at Quakers Walk and we look forward to welcoming more residents into their homes as the development to continues to take shape.”

As part of the planning agreement with Wiltshire Council, Bellway will be making financial contributions towards surface improvements to the Quakers Walk Path and the Kennet and Avon Canal towpath.

Bellway achieved five-star status from the Home Builder’s Federation (HBF) for the fifth year in a row in 2021, after 90 per cent of customers surveyed by the HBF said they would recommend the housebuilder to a friend.

A selection of homes are currently at the development, with prices currently starting at £334,995 for a three-bedroom semi-detached property and £377,995 for a four-bedroom detached home.
