Hackwood Grange, Mickleover

Development Overview

Hackwood Grange, located on Starflower Way in the popular residential suburb of Mickleover, Derby, Derbyshire (DE3 0FS), is a mature new build homes development by Redrow Homes. The site, situated approximately two miles west of Derby city centre, comprises a total of 290 new family homes and 60 dedicated affordable homes.

Properties available are exclusively from Redrow’s Arts and Crafts-inspired Heritage Collection, offering a selection of three and four-bedroom detached and semi-detached new build houses. As the development nears completion, a limited number of homes remain, including 'Readymade' plots for a faster transaction timeline. Current pricing for the remaining three and four-bedroom homes generally falls in the range of £460,000 to £530,000 for standard plots.

The development features Redrow's respected, traditional-style house types, which balance classic exterior architecture with modern, open-plan interiors. Specific available house styles and starting prices include:

• The Ludlow: A three-bedroom semi-detached house, available from £312,000 (contact the developer for current plot-specific pricing). The design includes a separate front lounge, a full-width open-plan kitchen/dining room with double patio doors to the garden, and an en-suite to the master bedroom.

This model offers an expansive open-plan area to the rear, a separate lounge, an integral garage, a utility room, and a main bedroom suite with both an en-suite and a dedicated dressing room.

Location and Transport Links

Hackwood Grange benefits from strong local road and rail connectivity. The development provides easy access to major trunk roads, including the A38 and A50, which link directly to the M1 motorway and East Midlands International Airport. The A52 is also nearby, offering access to Ashbourne and the Peak District.

For public transport users, the Trent Barton MICKLEOVER bus route operates frequent services in the area, connecting Mickleover to the city centre. A contribution of £230,000 by the developer towards a new bus service further aims to enhance local transport. Derby Train Station, located approximately four miles away, offers direct rail services to major cities, with fast journey times to London St Pancras International averaging 1 hour 37 minutes (fastest services at 1 hour 26 minutes) and to Birmingham New Street averaging 37 minutes.

Local Amenities and Services

Residents have access to a range of established amenities in the village of Mickleover, including a large Tesco supermarket, a Marks & Spencer's convenience store/petrol station, and local public houses. The village centre also features the Binary Bar and Restaurant. The wider Hackwood development includes plans for brand new, dedicated facilities, including future shops and playing field areas. The site is in the catchment area for John Port School, and Redrow has contributed a portion of a £3 million investment towards education, including the recently completed Hackwood Primary Academy.
