Many people dream of living in an older property, we have
been involved in renovating some spectacular properties, from Victorian
townhouses to steading conversions. They
can certainly make beautiful homes, but there are also huge benefits of living
in a modern, newly built property, designed for 21st century living.
If you’re keen on DIY or have a handy maintenance company,
then wonky floors and original windows can add character to a house. As a
rule of thumb the older the home, the more maintenance it will require. But, if
you’re looking to minimise ongoing expenses, it’s worth looking at new homes. New homes give the buyer a certain level
of reassurance. Our homes and those from reputable builders, come with a
10-year build warranty.
Everything will be new.
The windows won’t be draughty. The boiler won’t be faulty (and if there
is a problem, it will be under guarantee). Building regulations have been
strengthened over the years, so the old mantra that “they don’t build houses
like they used to”, is no longer true and that means new build homes should be
less likely to suffer problems than those of period properties.
If you opt to buy “off-plan” ie before it’s built, you often
get a say in colour schemes and fixtures and fittings.
Our new homes are built specifically to be energy efficient
and are therefore cheaper to run than older homes, which can make a huge
ongoing difference to your gas and electric costs.
Finally, new build homes are chain free, which can take a
huge amount of stress out of the buying process.
