Advantages Of Buying A New Build Home

 

Why buy new?


Whether you are a first-time buyer, need more space, downsizing or making an investment, there’s a whole host of reasons to buy a new build home from Countryside.


From buying a brand-new energy efficient property that’s never been lived in and that doesn’t require any DIY, to the wide range of schemes that are available to help get you moving; a new home could be the perfect choice for you.

1. Energy efficient homes that help you save on your bills

A new Countryside Home could save you up to £1,685* per year on your energy bills compared to an existing property. According to the Home Builders Federation, on average, energy bills for new homes are around 58% cheaper*, keeping you warm in the winter and saving you money on your utility bills.

 

2. No major DIY necessary

There’s no need to spend your weekends sanding down skirting or re-tiling your bathroom to bring your home up to scratch. With a new build home from Countryside, you get all the latest in kitchen and bathroom design. In fact, at some of our developments you will get the chance to personalise your home by choosing the design of your kitchen and bathroom; depending on the build stage of the property you are buying.

 

3. A blank canvas to make your own

The moment you get the keys to your new build home, you can put your feet up and relax. But there’s also room to put your own stamp on your new home if you want to get creative with your furnishings or put a splash of colour on the walls.

 

4. A selection of schemes to suit everyone

Whether you are a first-time buyer or already own your own home, there are options to help you along the way. First-time buyers can choose from schemes such as Deposit Assist, while existing homeowners may want to consider our Home Exchange or Smooth Move scheme. Other options, Home Stepper and the Deposit Unlock scheme, is open to both first-time buyers and existing homeowners.

You can find out more about the schemes we have available to use in our Ways to buy section. If you want to talk them through you can give one of our sales consultants a call and they’ll be happy to help.

 

5. Peace of mind with a 10-year warranty and insurance

All our homes are built to National House-Building Council (NHBC) standards – the technical benchmark for newly-built homes.

As standard our homes also come with long-term reassurance thanks to a NHBC 10-year warranty and insurance (or equivalent).

6. Become part of a community

We understand how important it is to get to know your neighbours, that's why prior to you moving in we arrange an event to introduce you to other homeowners and the Countryside team.

We put a great deal of care and consideration into the way we design our developments. From master-planning and design, through to building and aftercare, working closely with communities and our partners throughout the development journey.

 

7. There’s no forward chain

Buying a new build home can help take away the stress of getting stuck in a lengthy chain, as the home you are moving into will have never been lived in.

By using our Home Exchange scheme you can benefit from a cash buyer and even remain in your existing home until your new Countryside home is ready.

8. An opportunity for investment

Investing in a new-build home comes with plenty of benefits. You will be buying a home that tenants can move straight into without the need to fork out money for renovations. We build our homes in sought-after locations that are attractive to buyers and renters alike.
