Gleeson’s first development in Apedale launches three new show homes
Over the weekend of the 8th and 9th August 2026, Gleeson Homes invited prospective homebuyers to discover its brand-new show homes at Watermills, a vibrant new development in Apedale, Staffordshire.
Located on Apedale Road, Watermills is Gleeson’s first ever development in Newcastle-under-Lyme, offering a collection of two, three and four bedroom semi-detached and detached homes, designed to meet the needs of first-time buyers, growing families and those looking to take their next step on the property ladder.
The new show homes include the Broadale, a spacious four-bedroom detached home, alongside the Kilkenny and Wexford, two stylish three-bedroom homes that have been expertly designed to showcase modern living, practical layouts and contemporary interiors. Professionally styled throughout by Edward Thomas Interiors, the homes give visitors the chance to experience first-hand the quality, space and value available at Watermills.
The development has already proven extremely popular with homebuyers and is currently the highest-performing development across Gleeson’s Midlands region. Since launching, 89 of the 330 homes planned for the site have already been sold, underlining the strong demand for affordable, high-quality homes in the area.
Now open from 10am to 5pm Thursday through to Monday, visitors will have the opportunity to explore three professionally styled show homes, meet the sales team and learn more about the range of high-quality homes available.
As part of its commitment to supporting the communities in which it builds, Gleeson will also contribute over £396,000 through Section 106 funding. The investment will support healthcare services, local transport infrastructure and education provision, helping to enhance community facilities and services across Apedale and the surrounding area.
The launch of our new show homes at Watermills marks a significant milestone for both the development and our Midlands region. The response from homebuyers since launch has been exceptional, making Watermills our most popular development in the region to date. These beautifully designed show homes give visitors the opportunity to see exactly what life in a Gleeson home could be like. Whether buyers are taking their first step onto the property ladder, searching for more space for a growing family, or looking for a home that offers excellent value in a well-connected location, Watermills has something to offer.
Prospective buyers are encouraged to visit Gleeson’s Watermills development to explore the new show homes and discover more about the development. For further information, visit the Gleeson Homes website or speak to the sales team.
