GREEN MORTGAGES

Green Mortgages

By buying a new energy efficient Countryside Home you could take advantage of exclusive ‘Green’ mortgage products. A mortgage lender could offer lower interest rates on properties that carry an energy performance certificate or a predicted energy assessment rating of A – C. Think of it as a reward for buyers who are purchasing an energy efficient home. All our standard homes have a rating of A or B so this type of mortgage may be ideal if you are looking to purchase a new build home.

KEEPING YOU COSY

Keeping you cosy

Unlike older properties, our homes come with high efficiency double glazing as standard, letting plenty of light and warmth in while minimising heat loss and reducing the amount of noise you’ll hear within your home. Not only do they keep you cosy they also reduce the amount of external noise that you’ll hear within your home.

Additional roof and floor insulation are among the other unseen features included with our homes that will help reduce the costs of keeping your home warm in the winter months, while also keeping you cool in the summer.

REDUCING WATER USAGE

Reducing water usage

Our kitchens and bathrooms incorporate water saving measures, without compromising on style or functionality.

These features mean our homes use up to 20% less water* than the UK average. Our taps and showers use aerated technology to provide the feeling of a strong flow, whilst using less water. Plus, our dual low flush toilets use the minimum amount of water to ensure less waste.

*Average Countryside home uses 100-110 litres/person/day compared to UK average of 140 litres/person/day according to the Energy Savings Trust

Discover Newhall, Harlow in Essex

Just beyond the M25 north of London, Harlow is a carefully planned town on the site of an early medieval village. Part of the London commuter belt and providing easy access to London Stansted Airport, it is the ideal base for commuters and business travellers who want a beautiful home that blends convenience with a green and vibrant setting.

One-third of Harlow is given over to greenery, including the Parndon Wood nature reserve, which has been a woodland area for over 900 years. There's also the award-winning Harlow Town Park, which has received the Green Flag Award seven years in a row in recognition of its high-quality green spaces. The bustling town also has a lively art scene, with a plethora of public sculptures and everything from landscaped rooms to a moated fort at The Gibberd Garden.

For fans of live music and theatre, there's a packed schedule at Harlow Playhouse. Look out for performances and opportunities for young people to join creative programmes or step back in time with a trip to Harlow Museum and Walled Gardens, which showcases over 1,000 years of local history.

For shopping, there's the Harvey Centre, home to high-street names and a cinema, and the Water Gardens. Peace and tranquillity perfectly balance a busy modern lifestyle in this attractive town.

Local Schools and Education

There is a fantastic selection of schools rated 'Good' by Ofsted in the local area, both at primary and secondary levels. This makes our new build houses and apartments for sale in Harlow an excellent choice for families.

The University of Essex is just over an hour's drive away in Colchester, while all of the universities and higher education facilities in and around London are 45 to 50 miles on average from this housing development.
