HINTS OF EXTENDED STAMP DUTY

Look out home buyers for news of Stamp Duty extension

Strong hints that the Chancellor, Rishi Sunak will extend the Stamp Duty holiday in the budget on March 3rd is welcome news for home buyers.

The tax break – which can save buyers up to £15,000 – had been due to end at the end of March but is now expected to be extended until the end of June in line with other measures to support the economy.

Which means anyone contemplating a move could now have four months to find their next home – plenty of time to complete the searches and the paperwork and be happy in their new home for summer.

Sales director Craig Lynch said: “The deadline of the end of March has put a lot of pressure on the whole system as people rushed to complete. Extending until the end of June allows those who thought they had missed out to relook at properties and pursue their purchase.

“We have a clear build programme on all our sites and have a portfolio of properties that are on schedule to be completed for the end of June enabling buyers to take advantage of this significant tax saving.

“There is a suggestion that the benefit may be tapered to only apply to transactions agreed before the March deadline so anyone who had been considering a move should get in touch as soon as possible so they don’t miss out this time.”

The Stamp Duty holiday cuts the bill entirely on properties costing between £125,000 and £500,000 and reduces it on homes over £500,000.

Storeton Hall Barns

STORETON HALL BARNS

We’re converting two historic buildings on the development into unique luxury homes

At the heart of our Storeton Hall development on the stunning Wirral peninsular are two historic buildings.

Storeton Hall dates back to around 1372 and is the second oldest building on the Wirral after Birkenhead Priory. Work to convert the hall into two large properties is on-going and we have uncovered some interesting ‘grafitti’ left by workmen over the centuries.

These properties are not expected to be released for sale until mid 2021.

Neighbouring the Hall and looking out towards it is a stone built barn that used to serve the estate. It too is being converted into two unique homes and these have now been released for sale.

While both offer generous open plan living and four spacious bedrooms each one is unique with its own historic features and feel.

Joint managing director Georgina Livesey said: “The joy of working on buildings like this is uncovering the past and incorporating it into the present. The two homes in the barn are full of character with generous space and completely individual.

“We are really pleased with how the whole site is coming together, how the old buildings sit with the new and how the landscaping is progressing.

 “Sales of the new build homes have so far exceeded expectations with 15 reservations so we are very pleased to be able to release the two barn properties.”

PLOT 30
Occuping the right-hand side of the barn and incorporating the original barn opening which is now glazed to create stunning full height windows to the living room and master bedroom.

It offers a separate kitchen/dining room with bi-fold doors onto the garden and a fourth bedroom on the ground floor that has the flexibility to be used as a home office or play room or as a separate teenage sitting room.

PLOT 31
Boasts a large dual aspect living room with bi-fold doors onto the garden and links through to the well fitted kitchen with a breakfast bar and space for formal dining.
There are three double bedrooms on the first floor and on the ground floor a spacious bedroom suite with en-suite shower room, perfect for guests or anyone needing level access.

Both these properties are available to reserve now with completion scheduled for early 2021.

You can learn more about these unique homes by making a personal appointment to visit the marketing suite.

Coming Soon Green Walk, Standish

COMING SOON, GREEN WALK STANDISH

A new development set within the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty

Green Walk, Standish will be one of our most ambitious developments to date.

A 30-acre estate, dating back to 1818, in a stunning Cotswolds location with a Grade II listed manor house and three more listed buildings.

We are converting these historic buildings into characterful homes but the site also presents the opportunity for us to build a number of new homes in keeping with this very special setting.

Work has been safely progressing on site and we anticipate the first new build homes will be released for sale before the end of the year.

Joint MD Georgina Livesey said: “The current circumstances have placed an even greater importance on where and how we live and I do not think that will change. We all want a less hurried life with flexible space to work from home and easy access to nature.

“Green Walk, Standish has a very special feel. It is set apart from the nearest village of Stonehouse and approached up a sweeping drive through a historic arboretum planted when the manor house was built which now has some majestic and beautiful trees of national significance.

“The new homes we are building are designed specifically for Standish with plenty of room to be flexible and space for families to grow and thrive and enjoy this wonderful location.

“They offer a rare opportunity to be part of creating a unique community within the Park itself and to embrace the wider community of Stonehouse and Stroud.”

Only six properties are being released in the first phase. Built of solid stone they are thoughtfully planned with spacious rooms, high specification and private gardens within the wider grounds.

Full details of Phase I properties will be released to pre-registered clients in advance of the public launch, which will be held in Spring 2021. For your chance to receive exclusive preview information and invitations to pre-launch events please register your interest today click here >

Georgina added: “So much love and care is going into creating Green Walk, Standish that we look forward to welcoming our first visitors in the new year.”

The village of Stonehouse sits just off the M5 offering an easy commute to Cheltenham (30 mins) and Bristol (40 mins)

NOVEMBER, 2020

GASTRO PUB TO OPEN IN ALDERLEY PARK

The conversion of the Tenants Hall at Alderley Park into a gastro pub is almost complete

The building, which dates back to 1901, sits in the upper courtyard of our Historic Quarter development and, together with the courtyard cottages we converted, is one of the few buildings remaining from the original estate.

To be known as The Churchill Tree it will be operated by The Cheshire Pub company which already runs The Ship Inn at Styal and The Frozen Mop at Mobberley and is scheduled to open before the end of the year if Covid restrictions allow.

The pub will add to facilities for residents at the park who already have access to a state of the art gym and the coffee shops at the main Alderley Park campus.

Add in open access to 400 acres of glorious parkland and the amenities of Alderley Edge five minutes away and it is easy to see why the location is so popular.

 We have just one property remaining for sale at Alderley Park – a wonderful, two-bedroom apartment at the Water Garden. With one wall of glass opening out onto the peaceful gardens and views out over the park it is a very special property.

Ready to move into with a huge £15,000 Stamp Duty saving please call our sales consultant on 07801 576 264 to make an appointment to view.

And you could be saying Cheers to your new neighbours in your very own ‘local’.

SUPPORTING LOCAL BUSINESSES

Our Didsbury garden apartment comes with a package of goodies

We are supporting local businesses by adding a package of goodies that will make the buyer of our final garden apartment at Parklands, Didsbury, feel even more at home.

Plants from Flourish, a fridge full of beers from The Epicurean and luxury candles from Moth will add the final touches to this two bedroom show apartment which already includes fitted bedroom furniture, carpets and blinds.

Group Sales Manager Gavin Pearce said: “These are all wonderful independent shops that serve both of our Didsbury developments that have been forced to close their door during the second lock down. We wanted to show our support and it means whoever buys the apartment can have some lovely treats when they move in.

“Our marketing suite at 825 Didsbury is still open and buyers can make a private appointment to view the show apartment so they can truly appreciate how light and bright it is.”

Priced at £394,950 it qualifies for the Government’s current Help to Buy scheme which means it is available with only a 5% deposit. And as it is ready to move into there will be no stamp duty to pay.

Gavin added: “With everything in place you could be living in Apartment 08 by Christmas, surrounded by lush plants or maybe an amazing Christmas tree, enjoying a hand crafted beer in a wonderfully scented living room!”

Call 0161 448 0902 and make your appointment now with our sales consultant Brittany who will be happy to show you around.
