Kingfishers is a collection of 27 new houses in the Hampshire village of Ashford Hill, offering three, four and five bedroom homes. The properties are set within walking distance of all the village’s amenities, with the landscape enriched by new wildlife and wetland areas.

Set between Newbury in Berkshire and Basingstoke in Hampshire – each less than 10 miles away – Ashford Hill brings together every day amenities, community spirit and the great British countryside. On the doorstep is a primary school, a village hall and a cricket club, with Badgers Wood country pub and a number of supermarkets a short drive away.

While Ashford Hill’s pretty thatched cottages and an elegant Victorian, gothic-style church tell stories from the past, one of the village’s most iconic buildings is trailblazing for the future.

The Ship Inn Arts Centre is a place for music, art, craft and wellbeing, combined with the facilities of a country house hotel.

Country lanes edged with bountiful hedgerows, a patchwork of arable fields and dense woodland provide a verdant buffer between the village and nearby towns. One of the village’s richest natural assets is Ashford Hill Nature Reserve that is, in part, a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest and home to the development’s namesake, the kingfisher. Follow signposted trails to meander through meadows, wetlands and woodland, spotting 40 species of birds, 32 species of butterfly, and a wide variety of flowering plants and insects. The nature reserve is part of the wider Ashford Hill Woods and Meadows – a biologically rich valley spanning 351 acres.
