Superior design

At David Wilson Homes we don't build houses, we build homes. Homes that are designed for growing families and modern lifestyles, executives and busy couples. At Bedford Meadows, where you're on the edge of amazingly beautiful countryside yet close to progressive, modern towns, we've taken this setting into consideration. We've built homes that reflect the surroundings, yet are practical and reflect high specification details throughout.

Essentials on your doorstep

Bedford Meadows is less than a mile from the mature village of Kempston, where you'll find an array of pubs, takeaways, banks, a post office and a pharmacy. You’re also
minutes from a Sainsbury superstore and a retail park with Boots, TK Maxx, Toys R Us and Argos, plus a Pets at Home and KFC. Great news is that a new pub and hotel are set to open at the entrance to the development in 2013.

A fantastic location

Bedford Meadows sits on the outskirts of Kempston - a mature village community on the edge of the countryside. The area’s farm life is very much alive in this part of Bedfordshire. It’s proving to be a big draw for people who want to live with the best of the town, the city and the countryside all within easy reach. Kempston has pubs, takeaways, banks, a post office and a pharmacy. You’re also minutes from a Sainsbury superstore.
