Something for everyone at Berry Edge

With five showhomes to view, special deals for first-time buyers and part exchange available, there’s something for everyone at Berry Edge, Consett says Barratt North East.

Barratt is building a selection of 2, 3 and 4-bedroom homes from its brand new County Range at prices from £107,500.

Through the FirstBuy shared equity scheme, first-time buyers could move into a place of their own with a deposit of just £4,300.

Berry Edge is one of the first developments in the UK to display the latest County Range designs, which blend traditional exteriors with free-flowing, versatile living spaces.

New features include floor-to-ceiling glazed “light pods” which double the amount of window space compared to traditional patio doors, flooding living rooms with light and blurring the boundary between inside and outside space.

Kitchens have been redesigned with integrated dining and family areas, perfect for relaxing, while top-floor bedrooms have high ceilings and large rooflights, maximising natural light.

As fuel bills continue to soar, County Range homes are around 40 per cent more energy-saving than those built just ten years ago.

A 2-bedroom “Ashford” home from the new range is available through FirstBuy for just £86,000 and a deposit of £4,300.

This smart terraced house is ready to move into. It has a light and spacious open-plan living room with French doors leading out into the garden. The kitchen has fitted contemporary units and there are two double bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Part exchange is available on a 4-bedroom “Somerton” detached house, priced at £200,000.

At the heart of this exceptional family home is the open-plan kitchen and dining room which is light and spacious with French windows opening into the garden. There is also a good-sized separate living room. Upstairs the master bedroom has an en suite and there are two other double bedrooms, plus a fourth single and a family bathroom.

Fenton Hewitt, Sales Director at Barratt North East said: “We have some great deals on offer for first-time buyers, while our part exchange service removes all the uncertainty about finding a buyer if you have a place to sell.

“Barratt takes care of everything – there’s no chain to worry about, no last-minute price haggling, and you can stay in your present place until your new home is ready.”

The Berry Edge show village on Genesis Way is open daily from 10.00am to 5.00pm. For details, visit barratthomes.co.uk.
