With a third of Brits looking to reduce household costs and the average homeowner spending £3,000 a year on home improvements, savvy buyers could find they’re able to free up time and money with a move to a brand new home.

Harbin Fields, off Lyde Road in Yeovil, is perfect for those who are tired of spending on repairs and renovations or paying over the odds on fuel bills in an older property. The Elan Homes development offers a good choice of high specification four-bedroom properties on the final phase.

Andrea Nippe, sales director for Elan Homes in the South, explains: “Research by insurer Standard Life suggests that cutting bills and making improvements to their home are top of many people’s to do lists. Meanwhile building society Nationwide estimates that in just 12 months Brits will spend £3,342 on DIY with 18% replacing their bathroom.

“However, we’re encouraging people to think differently and consider moving from an older property to a new one. It could prove to be a more cost-effective option as our new homes won’t require costly maintenance and are efficient to run so will help cut fuel bills too!”

Elan’s homes boast a high specification as standard, with well equipped kitchens and quality bathrooms and en-suites. They’re designed for ease of living and boast a host of family friendly and energy efficient features.

Andrea added: “New build homeowners will also avoid the inconvenience of having the work going on in their home around them. They can just move straight in and start enjoying life.”

Harbin Fields enjoys views over open countryside towards Dorset yet is just a short walk to Pen Mill station, which offers quick links to Bristol and the south coast. A wide choice of high quality family homes are on sale in the final phase, including a variety of four-bedroom detached designs.

A show home is open to give prospective purchasers the chance to envisage the enviable lifestyle that awaits them. Prices start from £274,995.

A vibrant market town, Yeovil is tucked away in south Somerset less than 30 miles from Taunton and 40 miles from Bristol. It has a delightful range of restaurants, bars and shops as well as two theatres, The Octagon, and The Swan, a 10-screen cinema and 18-lane ten-pin bowling alley.
