Acorn Property Group has agreed terms to purchase 3.4 acres of land within the historical parkland of Hensol Castle Park in the Vale of Glamorgan for a new residential development in South Wales.
Located 11 miles from the city of Cardiff, within the community of Pendoylan, the site is set within the countryside and parkland surroundings of the Vale Resort in the Vale of Glamorgan and already comes with planning permission for 16 new homes.
Phase 1 of the development, currently known as The Mews will include 9 two-and-three- bedroom houses and 1 three-bedroom bungalow. Phase 2, known as The Villas, will feature 6 four-and-five-bedroom detached houses.
The development sits within the grounds of a 650-acre private estate, which is home to the Grade I listed Gothic-style mansion, Hensol Castle, an exclusive wedding and conference venue at The Vale Resort. The Vale Resort is known for its two championship golf courses and prime leisure facilities, which include tennis courts and a spa. The resort also provides training facilities used by the Welsh National rugby team, the Welsh National football team and Cardiff City Football Club.
New residents will also have the exclusive grounds, lakes and a walled garden right on their doorstep. The location’s proximity to Cardiff also means easy access to the M4 motorway and the city centre shopping and leisure amenities of Cardiff.
Renowned for its award-winning sustainable residential developments, Acorn is an independent development and regeneration specialist that has over the past 27 years successfully created residential-led refurbishment and new build schemes.
Acorn’s team in Cardiff secured the site in Hensol Castle Park for redevelopment.
Commenting on the new scheme, James Groombridge, Regional Managing Director of Acorn’s Cardiff Office, said: “We’re delighted to have secured this opportunity for a brand new residential development within the beautiful surroundings of Hensol Castle Park.
“We look forward to delivering a scheme sympathetic to this historical parkland with stylish new homes fit for modern living. Our focus is always to deliver homes that enhance the local environment and the lives of its occupiers.”
