New for old buyers sweep up in Okehampton

Barratt is expecting a busy time at Broome Park in Okehampton over the Easter weekend with a special part exchange weekend for buyers wanting a seamless ‘old for new’ house swap.

And as an added bonus for part exchange customers over Easter there will be lucky eggs on selected plots containing deals worth up to £10,000 to ensure the sweetest of purchases.

Under the part exchange scheme, first introduced by Barratt 30 years ago, buyers can trade in their old houses for a new Barratt home without all the usual stresses associated with moving house. Free valuations are independent and professional and offers are subject to status, contract and availability.

Visitors to Broome Park will be able to see what they can expect when they view the £269,000 Thornton showhome, which received an enthusiastic welcome when it was opened last month.

With four bedrooms and a light and airy lounge, a kitchen and breakfasting area plus a separate dining room and study area, the Thornton represents a spacious family home with versatile accommodation and plenty of storage.

Okehampton is situated on the edge of the vast Dartmoor National Park, with its towering tor topped peaks, rolling countryside and waterways, including the 730 acre Roadford Lake used for watersports, fishing and birdwatching, and the River Lyd which attracts thousands of visitors every year to witness the dramatic Devil’s Cauldron ravine, Pixie Glen and the White Lady waterfall.

When completed, Broome Park will have 61 homes, many of them with spectacular views of the surrounding countryside. With a such wide choice of options available on the site, from the three-bedroom terraced Maidstone house, with prices starting from £193,000 to the four bedroom detached Radleigh house, starting at £311,000 the development has already proved a hit but the part exchange programme is expected to attract a wider audience among families looking to move locally or buyers from outside the area seeking pastures new.

Barratt field sales manager Mary Daymond said: “Our Part Exchange scheme has been designed to take the hassle out of moving home so buyers can look forward to a process where there is no chain and where there will not be any need for a bridging loan.”
