Stamp duty gift to homebuyers

The show homes at Great Park in Rubery

With homes ready and waiting to be occupied and the chance to save thousands in stamp duty, there’s never been a better time to visit Great Park in Rubery.

Featuring designs from the sought-after New Heritage Collection, the development has seen continued sales success thanks to a winning combination of high specification homes in a prime location. It’s been so popular that out of 100 homes, there are now only 21 remaining for sale.

Some of those homes are now ready to be move into and as a ‘gift’ to customers Redrow is offering to pay the stamp duty for those who complete their purchase before December 14. It means they could enjoy Christmas in a brand new home.

Pauline Turnbull, sales director for Redrow Homes (Midlands), said: “The festive season will soon be upon us and people who are considering moving may think they’ve left it too late, but that’s not the case. We have properties that will be ready to be called ‘home’ in time for Christmas. And with the stamp duty incentive they could save thousands, freeing up cash to lavish loved ones with extra presents.”

For those who buy a four-bedroom Stratford, on the market at £249,995, the stamp duty saving equates to £2,500. And on a five-bedroom Hampstead, priced at £359,995, customers could save more than £10,000 in stamp duty.

All new homes at Great Park boast kitchens that are well equipped with integrated top brand name appliances, including microwave, oven, and fridge freezer big enough for the turkey; while the tall cabinets and extra wide drawers offer a stylish storage solution for any extra mince pies.

Convivial open plan kitchen / dining areas and spacious lounges make the homes perfect for families to spend a traditional-style Christmas together.

The properties also boast sleek modern bathrooms and en-suites with quality fixtures and fittings. Generously proportioned bedrooms mean children will have no problem falling asleep before Santa visits and will have plenty of space to store their new toys come Christmas morning.

With everyone dreaming of a white Christmas, purchasers will be safe in the knowledge that a Redrow home includes all they need to keep warm, including energy efficient central heating systems and double glazing. So while the weather outside might be frightful, families will stay snug indoors.

Pauline added: “All of our homes are well insulated. They’re around 40% more energy efficient than homes built just 10 years ago, which means householders won’t have to worry about turning up the heating to keep warm this winter and could find they save money on their fuel bills.”

Mature trees give the development a leafy setting; while at the same time it’s close to essential amenities and leisure facilities, including a supermarket, cinema, bowling alley and family restaurants.

The homes are approximately 10 miles south of Birmingham city centre, while the M5 motorway is nearby for commuting further afield.

To take advantage of the pre-Christmas stamp duty incentive, visit Great Park, where the show homes are open daily from 10am to 5.30pm. For more information, see redrow.co.uk/great-park.
