Description

A unique opportunity to purchase a partially completed brand new property - externally complete. Available to finish working with Altin Homes, subject to a PC sum payable by the purchaser.

Description

All internal photographs are an example of the show home internals on the prestigious Waterbank development and not of this property. Supplied to provide an idea of how the property could be finished.

We rarely have an occasion where our client provides us with the prospect of such an individual offering. But this is one such event.

Our client has completed the exterior structure of a fine new house and decided to offer an incoming purchaser the chance to sit down with his design team and customise
the interior and to listen to the buyer's requirements.
The successful purchaser & Altin Homes will agree a fixed additional cost to cover the internal fit out and all other aspects of completing the interior. This will be in readiness
for the final Building Regulation and Build Warranty sign offs, prior to the purchaser taking up occupation.

The property is situated in a very much sought after location within walking distance of Prestbury Village and is on the edge of the highly praised Waterbank, which has won the
'What House' Gold award for The Best New Development in the UK.

Our clients are Altin Homes, acclaimed developers within the Premium property sector, and this particular house in it's shell form will provide interested parties with a chance
to see just what goes into creating these incredible homes before much becomes invisible as the build progresses.

The property is very spacious and designed with five bedrooms and five en suites, with superbly designed reception areas plus a fabulous living kitchen, dining and lounge to the rear of the house overlooking the westerly facing gardens. Additionally, it should be noted that our client will supply an air source heat pump as the primary heat source for the underfloor heating system, which has also installed across all three floors, with a gas- fired central heating boiler provided as a back up.

Visitors will note that the array of solar panels on the roof of the garage is now in position and connected.
There is a large double garage within a gated courtyard providing ample additional parking space.

Conceptually a very low maintenance and economical building throughout, and featuring an anticipated EPC rating of A, with concrete floors and ceilings, and large windows
offering lovely views down the garden which face in a westerly direction.

We firmly believe that if you have dreamt about building your own home and found the concept far too daunting, then this may be the moment to revisit that aspiration.
Our clients may consider part exchanging your present property, please ask us for more details.

Firstly though, why not come and visit us and let us walk you around the property and we can explain how a one-time formidable option, can, with the help of Altin Homes
become a reality.

Please call us to arrange your appointment to see the property, or to just talk to our New Homes expert who can explain what is offered in very simple terms.
We look forward to hearing from you.
