It wasn’t all that long ago when buying a new home from plan seemed pretty unthinkable – with those having the courage and confidence to do so in a minority.
However, fast-forward to the last 18 months or so, and more and more homebuyers are recognising the benefits of reserving their new home without a single brick being laid.
The recent launch of Linden Homes Midlands’ Trinity Brook development in the Leicestershire village of Whetstone has created something of a buzz locally – and with the first new homes due for completion this spring summer, there is still time to snap up a dream home fresh from the drawing board.
Linden Homes Midlands area sales manager Bev Bray said: “The recent show home opening and development launch generated a lot of interest from visitors, many of whom were keen to find out more about buying off plan.
“Our experience at Linden Homes Midlands in general shows that customers are much more savvy about the house buying process, and coupled with knowledgeable and experienced sales staff and up to the minute brochures and plans – snapping up a new home from the drawing board is as popular as it has ever been, and never easier.
“Buying off plan is a trend which seems to be continuing among customers in the region, keen to secure their preferred plot on a particular development.
“For the customer, this is great news – bringing with it numerous benefits. For developers like us, it shows a real confidence in the new homes market and a recognition that our carefully chosen locations and designs are continuing to win public approval.”
So – what are the advantages to cherry picking your preferred plot from the drawing board?
- The chance to select a plot with a south-facing garden, usually highly sought after.
- If you reserve early enough, there will be the opportunity to choose your preferred taste in tiles.
- Having a blank canvas from which to plan your new home and watch your new home grow from the foundations.
- Buying at today’s price in a rising market.
- Reserving early for a later build gives you time to save up for new furnishings.
- Reaping all the benefits of lower utility bills, better energy efficiency and reduced maintenance bills that new homes can offer.
- New materials used in the construction process also mean that new homes are more energy efficient that their older counterparts.
- A 10-year National House Building Council (NHBC) protection.
Trinity Brook offers a stunning selection of two, three and four-bedroom homes off Cambridge Road, catering for a range of budgets and lifestyle requirements.
The first homes released for sale are the four-bedroom designs.
Trinity Brook continues Linden Homes Midlands’ long association with Leicestershire, where another development – The Limes at Sapcote– is already enjoying success and has welcomed a number of first residents.
Whetstone is perfectly positioned just five miles from Leicester, offering the best of both worlds for those who want to enjoy village life while being close to all that the city centre has to offer.
Convenient for commuters, the location also enjoys excellent road and rail links.
The show home and sales and marketing suite are open from Thursday to Monday 10.30am until 5pm. Alternatively contact the sales team on 0844 6442838.
