First time buyers get more for their money with new homes in Surrey

16th November 2016 Print

Research shows that homeowners who purchase a new build home in comparison to one built before 2013 can save up to £1,400 a year on utility bills due to high specification and energy efficiency. For first time buyers looking to get more for their money, Sovereign Place, recently launched by Bellway Homes in Horley, Surrey, is the perfect option.

Sovereign Place offers a collection of contemporary one and two-bedroom apartments and two-bedroom homes. Located a short walk from Horley train station with direct train services into London, these homes are ideally suited for commuting professionals seeking better value for their money outside of the capital.

Mark Harrop, Head of Sales at Bellway Homes South London, comments: “New build homes definitely make for a great investment and are especially cost-saving when compared to older houses which often lack energy efficiency. We encourage aspiring first time buyers to register their interest as soon as possible to avoid missing out on these exceptional homes.”

The Kensington is a charming one-bedroom apartment, benefitting from open-plan space and a private terrace. Fitted units in the kitchen are complemented by a selection of integrated Zanussi appliances including an electric fan oven, gas hob, cooker hood, dishwasher, and fridge freezer. The hallway offers a utility cupboard with space and plumbing for a washing machine.

The bedroom, which boasts access to a private terrace, is also carpeted and includes space for an optional fitted wardrobe. The bathroom is fitted with Roca white sanitaryware, an over-bath shower, Bristan brassware and benefits from attractive tiling to the walls and floor.

Horley offers a variety of supermarkets, chain stores, boutiques, and independent retailers, including the Collingwood Batchellor department store. Further shopping opportunities are available at nearby Redhill and Crawley, as well as the market towns of East Grinstead and Reigate, which can all be reached within 20 minutes by car.

The area profits from an excellent range of dining options, including a variety of restaurants, cafés, bars, and traditional pubs. The three AA-rosette Mulberry Restaurant at Langshott Manor Hotel is less than two miles from home, and the exquisite Michelin-star Restaurant Tristan can be found in nearby Horsham.

Finally, for residents looking to keep fit, Horley Leisure Centre is just over a mile from Sovereign Place and offers two swimming pools, a gym, a multi-use sports hall and exercise studio.

These stylish new homes have access to several major roads, including the A23, M23 and the M25.
