Buyers flock to exclusive homes in Shoreham-by-Sea

Homebuyers looking to make their mark on a brand new property flocked to Crest Nicholson’s exclusive preview this weekend at the highly anticipated Orchard Gate. More than 200 prospective buyers headed to the development where a collection of two, three and four bedroom houses are now ready to reserve off plan.
In a clear sign that properties in West Sussex are in high demand, the award-winning housebuilder welcomed the hundreds of eager purchasers all looking to get ‘pick of the plot’ and hand select their ideal property. Situated just six miles from Brighton, Orchard Gate offers purchasers that buy off plan a great location at an affordable price.
Chris Warner, Sales & Marketing Director at Crest Nicholson South, said: “The interest in Orchard Gate has been overwhelming and a sure sign that confidence is on the rise in the local housing market. With little in the way of high quality, well-designed new properties in the area, Orchard Gate is already proving to be a huge hit among first-time buyers, investors and downsizers alike.
“Buying off plan is an affordable way for house hunters to get exactly want they want. They can pick their preferred plot and buy their brand new home fresh from the drawing board, working closely with Crest Nicholson to put their own stamp on their home. We are expecting the development to be hugely popular, so I would urge interested buyers to act quickly to avoid missing out on their perfect new home.”
Situated on Upper Shoreham Road in Shoreham-by-Sea, Orchard Gate presents a host of benefits to purchasers buying off plan, including choosing interior design styles, fixtures and fittings. Crest is also providing purchasers with the security that the agreed sale price will remain fixed until completion – even if the cost of similar properties increase in the meantime.
With many buyers priced out of the Brighton property market, Orchard Gate provides something for everyone – from young professionals and downsizers to families and first-time buyers. The development is just a short walk to the town centre, which offers a good range of shops, bars and restaurants, the local beach and Shoreham Mainline Station – with direct services to London Victoria in just over an hour. Alternatively, Brighton is just under 20 minutes away*.
Local amenities, including a parade of shops, are just a short distance away from Orchard Gate and the town’s health centre, dental practice, library and arts centre are all within easy reach. The Holmbush Retail Centre, featuring Marks & Spencer’s, a Tesco Superstore and Homebase, along with two leisure centres are also close by. Appealing to families, Orchard Gate is also ideally located for a number of primary and secondary schools as well as Brighton University.
Prices for a two bedroom, off plan house start from £250,000. Three bedroom homes are available from £290,000 and £330,000 for a four bedroom property. For more information, please visit the Sales and Marketing Suite at Orchard Gate, which is open daily (10am – 5pm).
