This exceptional development of new and converted two and three-bedroom houses and one, two, three and four-bedroom apartments, set within 27 acres of parkland, is the result of Beechcroft’s careful conversion of a Grade II listed property, once home to the grandparents of ‘James Bond’ author, Ian Fleming.

We anticipate that the sales launch will be in summer 2025 and the guide prices are from £850,000.

Each Beechcroft home at Mallows Park in Nettlebed will provide plenty of light-filled living space, designed according to Beechcroft’s principle of creating high-quality homes with an abundance of living space.

The fixtures and fittings are of the highest quality; kitchens include bespoke cabinets and a full range of top brand appliances, bathrooms include vanity units and mirrors, wardrobes are fitted in the main bedrooms and flooring, including carpeting, is included. Where possible, each new home will feature outside space – in the form of a terrace, balcony, private garden or a combination of these, along with allocated parking. The landscaped gardens will be a delight with a variety of plants to provide texture, colour and year-round interest.

Discover a new beginning with Beechcroft

With 40 years’ experience in the creation of award-winning developments for the over 55s, Beechcroft selects sites in the most desirable villages and market towns in the southern counties.

Our beautifully crafted houses and apartments are stylish, energy-efficient, easily maintained and a delight to live in. Every home provides plenty of living space but fewer bedrooms than a family home and either a terrace, balcony or private garden.

Inspired by local architecture, each Beechcroft scheme is unique, complementing the local area. Rather than being a ‘finishing touch’, landscaping is integral to the development – carefully planned and lovingly planted.

An Estate Manager is responsible for maintaining the development, being on hand to offer help and advice and keeping an eye on properties whilst owners are away – giving you peace of mind when travelling at home or abroad.

What people say...

“I was a little worried that downsizing to a smaller home would prove too difficult but I am so glad I did. I love my house – it’s so convenient and compact. I have a small, private patio and every day, when I’m home, I take a walk around the landscaped gardens. Often when I’m busy indoors, I’ll realise that I haven’t had any fresh air so I’ll head outside – there are so many lovely shrubs and plants here to look at.”

Behind the name: Mallows Park

When selecting a name for the exceptional development in Nettlebed, the Beechcroft team looked back at the history of the Grade II listed mansion, known as Joyce Grove. Built in 1908 for Robert Fleming, grandfather of Ian Fleming, the author of the James Bond novels, the mansion is an unusual combination of both Jacobean and Arts and Crafts styles of architecture, so it seemed natural to pay homage to the architect of this fascinating building.

When Robert Fleming bought Joyce Grove along with its 2,000-acre estate in 1903, a William and Mary style manor, dating from 1725, occupied the site. Fleming decided to tear the older house down and commissioned the architect, CE Mallows, to design a replacement.

Born in 1864, Charles Edward Mallows was considered the finest draughtsman of his generation and a successful country house architect, associated with the Arts and Crafts movement. Mallows was born in Chelsea, the son of a boot and shoemaker, but spent his childhood in ‘Constable Country’ at Flatford Mill, East Bergholt. He was privately educated and articled to a local architect but later went on to study at the Royal Academy Schools and became a fellow of The Royal Institute of Architects in 1900. In 1913, two years before Mallows’ death, a fire damaged the roof and Joyce Grove was rebuilt and enlarged.

Once, the rebuilding of Joyce Grove provided work for local residents and, later, employment as gardeners, grooms and servants. Now, Beechcroft’s conversion will provide a collection of unique new and converted homes set within 27 acres of parkland.
