Following the success of the housebuilder’s previous Ashbourne development, Rambler’s Gate, which sold out in June 2023, the first homes are expected to be available in May 2025 and will include a range of two to five bedroom properties, catering to a variety of buyers. 

Ashbourne Airfield will primarily feature a range of village-style homes, complemented by a selection of one and two bedroom apartments, making it an ideal choice for first-time buyers, working professionals, empty nesters, and growing families alike.
