On the edge of Gotherington, just outside Cheltenham, Hayfield Heights is bringing a fresh take on Cotswold living. The development by Hayfield Homes will comprise 50 properties, including bungalows and four and five-bedroom homes, all designed with a focus on quality, sustainability and long-term family living. As Hannah says, “the community is intended to feel established rather than newly created, offering homes that sit naturally within their village setting while embracing the needs of modern homeowners.”

Architecture Inspired by Its Surroundings


The five-bedroom display home shows off Hayfield Homes' design concept. With balanced proportions, stone detailing and soft neutral brickwork, the exterior reflects traditional Cotswold architecture which is not a typical new-build styling. "It doesn't look like it is a brand new property, does it? And that's not an accident," Hannah observes. The property feels as though it belongs within the landscape, contributing to the character of the wider neighbourhood.

A Statement Entrance


Stepping inside reveals a spacious entrance hall centred around a striking oak staircase. The combination of neutral finishes, clean lines and refined detailing creates a cohesive look. Hannah describes it as "the kind of entrance hallway that sets the tone for the rest of the property" combining elegance with practicality while providing access to the home's living spaces.

A Kitchen Created for Modern Living


At the heart of the home is an expansive open-plan kitchen, dining and living space that occupies much of the ground floor. A substantial quartz-topped island anchors the room, complemented by premium cabinetry, integrated appliances, hidden storage and beautiful design details. "Most of what you're seeing comes as standard" Hannah highlights, noting the rarity of such a comprehensive specification. Designed as both a functional workspace and social hub, the kitchen effortlessly supports everyday family living and entertaining on a larger scale.

Country-Inspired Practicality


Beyond the kitchen, a dedicated utility room and boot room bring an added layer of practicality. Styled with timber-inspired finishes and subtle country influences, these spaces capture the home's Cotswold vibe while remaining highly functional. Hannah describes the aesthetic as "country chic perfectly suited to muddy walks, outdoor adventures and the rhythms of family life.”

A Strong Connection to the Outdoors


Large bi-fold and French doors create a natural transition between indoor living and outdoor entertaining. Natural light floods the open-plan living area, while the garden becomes a true extension of the home during warmer months. "This is proper indoor-outdoor living" says Hannah, emphasising how easily the spaces work together. The garden itself offers an expansive lawn area, patio and entertaining areas, including a beautifully equipped pergola that transforms the space into an all-season retreat.

Elegant Spaces for Entertaining


Separate dining and living rooms provide a more traditional alternative to the open-plan family areas. Inspired by classic interiors and Ralph Lauren influences, these rooms feature decorative wall panelling, elegant furnishings and carefully layered textures. Hannah describes the atmosphere as "countryside understated luxury" creating spaces that are equally suited to formal entertaining and relaxed evenings with family and friends.

Five Bedrooms with Distinct Personalities


Upstairs, five generously proportioned bedrooms each offer their own character while maintaining consistency in craftsmanship and finish. Three benefit from en-suite bathrooms, while fitted wardrobes and high-quality sanitaryware reinforce the home's premium specification. Throughout the floor, thoughtful interior design creates individuality without disrupting the overall sense of cohesion.

Sustainability Built In


While the architecture draws inspiration from tradition, the technology is firmly focused on the future. The home achieves an EPC rating of A thanks to features including an air source heat pump, solar panels, EV charging and high-performance glazing. Hannah points out that Hayfield Homes is "big on sustainability and future proofing" recognising that buyers at this level are often investing in a long-term family home.

Elevated Living in the Principal Suite


The highlight of the property is undoubtedly the principal suite. Featuring a four-poster bed, dedicated dressing room and a luxurious ensuite bathroom, the space delivers a relaxing and highly personal space. "at this point, I feel like I'm in some kind of boutique hotel", Hannah remarks. Marble-effect tiles, a freestanding bath, dual basins, extensive illuminated storage and a separate WC elevate the experience beyond that of a typical new-build home, creating a suite designed for comfort as much as visual impact.

A Contemporary Take on Cotswold Living


From its Cotswold-inspired exterior to its energy-efficient specification, the home is designed to meet the demands of modern family living. With its architecture and hotel-inspired principal suite, the property demonstrates how new-build homes can embrace traditional character while delivering the comforts and efficiencies expected by today's buyers. As a showcase for Hayfield Heights, it paints a fascinating picture of modern life in the country.
