Building work on new community facilities including an exclusive coffee shop, a handy supermarket and boutique local shops is continuing at a great pace at Wellington Place.

Visitors to the development off Leicester Road will notice the vision for the community hub near Davidsons Homes’ parcel of the site starting to become a reality. The buildings will form the heart of Wellington Place, offering an attractive destination for visitors and local people to stroll around and enjoy.

Ethical coffee chain Esquires has been confirmed as one proprietor, following its initial successful venture into the centre of Market Harborough. A local Sainsbury’s will also open at Wellington Place, giving buyers and local people a handy new place to shop.

Iain Pickering, Design Director for Davidsons Homes, said: “The community facilities at Wellington Place have been designed not just as a convenient pitstop for locals, but a hub that people will be able to stroll around and enjoy.

“Visitors to our development at Wellington Place, or even those using the new road connecting it to our Lubenham View development, may have noticed the buildings appearing at a great rate. It’s wonderful to see our vision begin to be realised and to see just how this section of the development will act as the focal point of the site.

“From Wellington Place, there’s a lovely walk along the canal to The Waterfront, a restaurant where you can enjoy a summer’s evening sat sipping a cool drink and watching the canal boats moored up nearby. Or those that want to venture a little further afield could even cycle to Foxton Locks, a historic site with the longest flight of locks in Britain. Buyers could also walk along the main road to the centre of Market Harborough, where independent shops, well-regarded restaurants and vibrant coffee shops await.

“Our Wellington Place local centre means though, that you won’t have to leave the development if you don’t want to. All facilities that could be needed are right here, giving our buyers the best of both worlds.”

The facilities at Wellington Place are set to open later this year. For more information and to see the latest homes available to buy at Wellington Place, visit davidsonshomes.co.uk
