Why Buy New?

Why you should buy a new build home?

There’s nothing better than moving into a new build. From the design to the location, the benefits for the owner to the positive impacts on the planet, here are the best things about them.

Modern design

Our new builds are thoughtfully designed with the modern world in mind. For example, with working from home becoming the norm, rooms which used to serve one purpose now need to be multi-functional. Like bedrooms doubling up as offices or a living room with enough space for a workout.

Modern design is also about how a home performs. For us, this means large windows for extra light (and lower bills), optimised floorplans bespoke to each family and smart tech around the house.

Ready to move into

Inside and out, everything is new. From the plumbing systems to the insulation of the walls to the large, double-glazed windows and everything in between. This means the whole house is in the best condition of its life. No DIY needed. You can buy the house and move straight in. It’s really that simple.

Energy efficient and sustainable

When it comes to sustainability, we go even further than the government’s building regulations. This means that from airtight structures to insulated walls, dual flush toilets to copious amounts of natural light, all our homes are designed to be as energy efficient and sustainable as possible.

For buyers wanting to take sustainability even further, our carbon-negative homes are resetting the standard

Bespoke builds

With new builds there’s so much you can personalise.

In many of our homes you can choose the floor plan or colour scheme as well as build in a whole range of optional extras, from walk-in wardrobes to beautiful work tops – and garden pods to solar panels.

Warranties and guarantees

When you buy a new build, you don’t just get given the keys and waved good luck: you get warranties and guarantees. These vary from home to home, but at St. Modwen Homes our warranty lasts for 2 years from the date of legal competition.

Ready-made community

When you buy a new build, you buy more than just four walls and a garden. You buy into a community – one that’s been built to make your everyday life better.

From the people to the local amenities to the transport links and beyond, everything is there to make you feel relaxed and welcome. For us, building a home is just the beginning: we want you to love where you live.

Modern design is also about how a home performs. For us, this means large windows for extra light (and lower bills), optimised floorplans bespoke to each family and smart tech around the house.

A scheme for everyone

Buying a new build is very straightforward (particularly as there’s no previous owner of the house). To help with the financial side of things we offer a number schemes, loans and part exchanges. Here are all the different ways you can buy a St. Modwen’s home.
