Barratt launching two new showhomes in Redhill

Two new showhomes are being launched at two very different, but equally exciting, developments in Redhill. Interested home buyers are invited to view Barratt Southern Counties' latest residential schemes, Barratt@Watercolour and Impress@Park25, on Saturday 26th July. Because the developments are less than two miles apart, home buyers can enjoy the jazz band and complementary barbeque at Barratt@Watercolour and view the stunning new showhome at Impress@Park 25 on the same day.

The Rembrandt showhome, named after the seventeenth century Dutch painter and etcher, at Barratt@Watercolour provides inspiring views of the lagoon, which has already become home to returning native wildlife. The Rembrandt features a dual façade of brick and coloured weatherboard, which imparts considerable aesthetic appeal, while the interior has been completed to a high specification. Four bedrooms, three with en suites, a large breakfast/kitchen room and a generous study are included in the three floor layout.

Barratt@Watercolour offers much more than the average residential development. It will be a comprehensive village community with its own shop, community hall, medical surgery, health and fitness centre, nursery and veterinary practice. The 97 apartments and houses are all set within the peaceful surroundings of a nature conservation area, which incorporates communal landscaped gardens, two lagoons, canal reed beds, walkways and cycleways.

The development provides one and two-bedroom apartments, along with two, three, four, five and even six-bedroom houses. One-bedroom apartments start from £187,995 while two-bedroom apartments are from £227,995. Two-bedroom houses are available from £272,495, three-bedroom houses are available from £299,995, and four-bedroom houses are available from £376,995.

At Impress@Park 25, Barratt has converted a disused industrial site into an environmentally friendly mixed-use development. The development prioritises energy efficiency, as heat is distributed to each individual property from an Eco Sound Bio Mass Boiler, which burns renewable and organic material rather than non-renewable fossil fuels.

Nevertheless, interested buyers will not need to compromise on luxury, as evidenced by the new showhome, a three-bedroom house in ‘The Kendell' style. The home, with a living area, separate family room and three bedrooms, two with en suites, is ideal for large families who like to maintain their own personal space.

The development features attractive avenues and cul-de-sacs, expansive green space, designated play areas, cycleways, footpaths, lakes and an exciting mix of new properties, including 42 affordable homes.

Impress@Park 25 provides one-bedroom apartments priced from £189,495 and two-bedroom apartments priced from £245,495. Three-bedroom houses are available from £352,495 and four-bedroom houses are available from £391,495.

Waterloo Station can be reached from Redhill Station or Merstham Station in approximately 45 minutes. For motorists, there is easy access to the A23, A25, M25 and the M23.

By offering an exceptional 100 per cent home exchange package and free removals, Barratt is providing help for all those who choose either development to be their new home. Barratt will value your home and agree an acceptable sale price, then assume the responsibility of selling your home; Barratt will even organise and pay for the Home Information Pack (HIP), obtaining copies of planning permissions and arranging for the compulsory energy performance certificate.

When combined with the free bespoke removal package from anywhere in the country, including a full packing service and extended liability cover, all that is left for buyers to concern themselves with is which property to choose.

Alternatively, the ‘Head Start' initiative allows first time home buyers to move into a brand new apartment for only 85 per cent of the purchase price, while still owning a full 100 per cent of the property. No interest or rent is payable on the 15 per cent deferred, which is paid back as 15 per cent of the property's open market value at any time up to the resale of the property or within ten years, whichever is sooner. Barratt will also pay the 5 per cent deposit for all first time home buyers.
