A new home for Christmas at Old Cider Works

Homebuyers who think they have left it too late to move into their dream home for Christmas should hurry along to Old Cider Works at Norton Fitzwarren is ready to play Santa Claus.

The housebuilder has a range of two and three bedroom homes available on this hugely popular development and there is still time to move in time for the festive season.

“Old Cider Works has been a great success for Barratt and homes in the current phase of development are selling fast,’’ said sales manager Mary Daymond. “The location, the selection of homes and the schemes have been real winners here.’’

The Old Cider Works is at the foot of the Quantock hills and just outside the thriving market town of Taunton in Norton Fitzwarren.

As its name suggests, The Old Cider Works, is the regeneration of a disused cider plant and is within easy reach of both the town and the surrounding villages for all local amenities and services.

And for those looking for a move before Christmas Barratt also offers part-exchange to existing homeowners and shared equity products which help first time buyers onto the housing ladder at a substantially discounted up-front cost.

“With Christmas fast approaching people perhaps think there isn’t enough time to move into a new home, but I’d like to assure them that the process can be done in just four to six weeks,” said Mary.

“By reserving now they could be settled in for the holiday period. And as our homes all come complete with energy efficient heating and high standards of insulation, they can look forward to a cosy Christmas and New Year.”

She added: “We’ll consider part-exchange, which removes all the uncertainty for move-up buyers. Just like trading in your old car, we are effectively cash buyers enabling you to relax without the worry and cost of selling your property. There’s no hassle, no estate agent fees or last-minute price haggling.”

“We also have some innovative deals for first time buyers. Some of our shared equity deals enable you to move into a new home for just 85 per cent of the purchase price.”

Availability heading towards Christmas includes two bedroom apartments and three bedroom houses with prices from £147,500.
