Top reasons to buy a brand new home

Brand new means a blank canvas
Everything in a new Keepmoat home is clean and untouched by previous owners - it’s like buying a brand new car and driving it out of the showroom. Our homes are decorated in ‘neutral’ colours giving purchasers a blank canvas on which to stamp their own style and personality from day one.

Shorter chain means less stress and hassle
A Keepmoat home buyer can move in to their new home as soon as it is complete; there is no need to wait for existing residents to vacate. This reduces the chain, stress and uncertainty associated with buying a second hand property.

Spoilt for choice
Keepmoat homes come in all shapes and sizes, from small studio flats to grand five bedroom houses, and there are countless designs and styles to choose from - something for everyone! Subject to the stage of construction, we allow customers to choose fixtures and fittings, as well as a higher specification from our 'Contours' range of exclusive extras at an additional cost. These include flooring, soft furnishings, interior design or even a garden landscaping service.

Live in a high spec home
Our new homes are built to a much higher specification than many older properties. The number of ‘as standard’ features included in new build homes has also greatly increased, ranging from fitted kitchens with cooker and hob, fridge/freezer, washing machine and dishwasher, to en-suite bathrooms or shower rooms. Designed to comply with the very latest building regulations set by the Government, our new homes are also kitted out with the latest heating systems, excellent wall and loft insulation, and double glazed windows and doors.

Built to suit modern lifestyles
Our new homes are built to make use of every inch of space. Research shows 17 per cent of living space in older style properties often goes unused. Our new homes provide flexible living space whatever your circumstances, whether you are single, a couple, a growing family or retired.

Be part of a new community
Moving to a brand new home is also an opportunity to make new friends and be part of an emerging community. Buying in an established street, where properties may change hands infrequently, makes it harder to break into the social network. Today’s neighbourhoods are designed and built with people in mind, and with everybody starting from scratch, getting to know your neighbours and community is easier as you discover your new surroundings together.

Enjoy peace of mind
Buying a new home from Keepmoat eliminates the need to do any renovations, repairs or DIY, meaning new home owners can spend more time with family and friends, doing all the things they really enjoy. An insurance backed 10-year NHBC warranty also provides new owners with peace of mind, which those buying a second hand property simply do not have.

Stay safe and sound
Our new homes are designed to adhere to high building standards. These standards relate to every aspect of a building’s construction including its structure, ventilation, sound insulation, and electrical and fire safety, so new homeowners can enjoy living in a safe and secure environment.

Help the planet and save money too!
New homes are already six times more energy-efficient, generating over 60% fewer CO2 emissions than older style homes, which is the equivalent of driving 10,000 miles less a year per household. So new home owners can take comfort that they are doing their bit for the environment. But it’s not just about the planet; improved energy efficiency saves money too, and living in a new home can reduce energy bills by more than £500 per year, enough to pay for a holiday or an ipod!
