Find your dream home in County Durham

North East home seekers can now sell their home within one week and move into a brand new property in County Durham, thanks to a great offer from Shepherd Homes.

The York-based homebuilder has re-launched a ‘sell in seven days’ deal which sees the company pledge to make a part exchange offer to potential purchasers within just one week. Subject to conditions the offer is valid at all five of Shepherd Homes developments in County Durham - Kitswell Park, Lanchester; Roundhaven, near Durham City; Dales View in Consett, Finchale View at West Rainton and The Paddocks at Houghton-le-Spring.

Part exchanging with Shepherd Homes means you can use your current home as part payment for a brand new Shepherd Homes property, which are all designed, built and finished to Shepherd Homes’ exceptionally high specification.

David Smith, sales & marketing director at Shepherd Homes, said: “Following interest rates cuts and increasingly competitive mortgage rates, properties are once again beginning to sell. As a result, we have decided that the market is right to reintroduce part exchange.

“Part exchange is a fantastic solution when you’ve found a property that you love and can’t wait to move in. It removes the trouble of finding a buyer for your own home, avoids the need for estate agents fees and eradicates the frustration of waiting in a chain. Instead, you get a guaranteed buyer for your current home so that, when an agreement is reached, there are no worries and you can just get on with planning the move into your beautiful new home.”

Part exchange brings the dream of owning a stunning home such as The Laurel at Dales View in Consett closer to reality. Priced at £249,995 The Laurel has been designed to maximise the use of available space, whilst meeting all the needs of family life.

The ground floor comprises a spacious entrance hall leading to a large, airy lounge, separate dining room and kitchen, with the former boasting French doors opening out on to a landscaped rear garden. A cloakroom and convenient utility room complete the ground floor. The first floor comprises a large master bedroom and second bedroom, both of which feature en suite bathrooms. Two further bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the spacious layout.

David continued: “With many of our properties now eligible for part exchange, more homebuyers can look forward to living in a home that is exceptional in terms of both quality and value.”
