The development is part of a wider new neighbourhood of up to 750 new homes on land opposite Basingstoke Golf Club, delivered by Vistry Group under the Bovis Homes and Linden Homes brands.

The showhome is a three-storey home with an open-plan kitchen and family room opening through French doors to the garden along with a study on the ground floor.

The first floor has a living room, a family bathroom, and a double bedroom, while the top floor features an en-suite master bedroom and double bedroom.

Alix Laflin, marketing manager for Vistry Thames Valley, said: “The changing dynamic of buyers’ wish-lists in this post-pandemic era has seen flexible space in the home become a priority. The home has now got to adapt to changes in the lifestyle of the buyer as more people choose to work remotely.”

The Hounsome Fields development has a selection of three and four-bedroom homes available to reserve with prices starting at £410,000.
