Save over £1000 on furnishing your whole house with Persimmon

6th August 2013 Print

A leading house builder is offering a range of fully furnished ready-to-move-in-to homes to prospective buyers across Yorkshire.

The cost of furnishing a brand new home is a major expense that a lot of first time buyers don’t take into account when buying a new home so Persimmon Homes has launched its ‘House2Home’ furniture package for those looking for a fast and affordable route to a stylish new home.

According to Santander, furnishing a property, along with mortgage fees and stamp duty is one of the biggest one off costs involved in purchasing a new home.

Kevin Thubron, Sales and Marketing Director for Persimmon Homes, Yorkshire said: “Buying a brand new home is an exciting adventure for most people but furnishing and accessorising your home can be a lengthy and expensive business.“

A 2011 study by the bank found that the average first-time buyer spends £3,872 kitting out a property, and this cost increases to a whopping £5,495 if you are based in London.

“To take the pressure off and keep the cost down we have devised a range of furniture and accessory packages allowing our customers to furnish their home from top to bottom before they even move in for as little as £2,749. That’s a whole £1,123 less than the average cost of furnishing a home.”

The flexible packages offer a choice of contemporary furniture complete with a three year warranty, and accessories in a range of colour schemes. Everything that a household could possibly need is itemised in the various packages, from sofas, beds and a 32” television to mirrors, picture frames, and bedding. There is even a toilet roll holder and corkscrew among the list of options.

Kevin added: “Interior design company Fusion, has formulated the packages to give buyers the choice, value and peace of mind that their furniture and accessories will all co-ordinate perfectly.

“We hope that this initiative inspires house proud home buyers in Yorkshire and encourages them to take the easy route to furnishing their new home.”

House2Home is currently available at the following Persimmon developments: Persimmon Pastures in Kingsmead, Hull: Meadowdale in Withernesea and Cloisters in Bridlington.
