Bloor’s stress-free way to buy a brand new home

When you want to buy a new home, but you need to sell your existing home first, it’s a bit like the chicken and the egg scenario. Do you look for a property you like first and then put your house on the market hoping you can sell yours in time to make the purchase? Or do you find a buyer for your home and then look for a new property, hoping your sale goes through without any hitches?

With its 100 Per Cent Part Exchange scheme available on selected plots at its Littlecombe development in Dursley, Bloor Homes can eliminate this dilemma for you along with the stress that goes with it.

Sales Advisor, Katrina Gribbon explained: “Many of our customers have purchased using this scheme and quite simply, it takes away the worry of selling their current property and cuts out the need to involve an estate agent, making the transaction as smooth and stress-free as it can possibly be. Importantly, whilst most developers only offer around 95 per cent of the valuation when they take part-exchange properties, Bloor is offering the full 100 per cent, so buyers purchasing through our Part Exchange scheme are getting the best value for money from their deal.”

Andy Billington is one customer who is just settling in at Littlecombe thanks to the scheme. He said it was an ideal way to purchase his new home, which he shares with his wife Alex and two children Isabel and Lucy. “Having gone through the frustrating process of selling a house in the past, the ability to be able to move quickly without having to worry about selling our own home was a great appeal,” he said. “The fact that Bloor also gave us the full market value for our old house made sure we could afford the move”

Andy purchased a Tern style property – a unique 4-bedroom split-level house featuring a smart and spacious kitchen-diner looking out over a vaulted lounge area below. Its double height windows, with twin glazed doors opening onto the garden area, give the living space a bright, crisp, almost Scandinavian feel. Whilst above, on the first floor are four bedrooms - the master bedroom featuring an en-suite – and a family bathroom.

“We’d been looking at the Littlecombe site since building first started because we thought the site layout and eco credentials made the site ideal for our lifestyle and young family. When we first saw the Tern, we made the decision to move instantly; the feeling of light and space in the property is fantastic. In addition, the solicitor recommended by Bloor made sure everything happened on time. It’s hard to believe that only seven weeks after first seeing the house we are now living in it. ”

One further Tern home, priced at just £244,950, remains available, with two parking spaces. Several additional 4-bedroom homes are also for sale. These include the Wheatear which has an ensuite, garage and parking, with prices starting from £249,950, and a Warbler which has the added benefit of two ensuites and a garage as well as a parking space. One 5-bedroom Tawny style detached property is on the market. Priced at £334,950, this includes 2-ensuites, a garage and parking.

Situated alongside the River Cam, overlooked by the local church and surrounded by farming countryside, this beautiful local environment is reflected in the eco-friendly design of the houses. All the homes at Littlecombe include a broad range of features designed to minimize the building’s ecological impact while keeping fuel bills down.
