SAVING YOU MONEY
According to the Home Builders Federation, on average, energy bills for new build homes are 58% cheaper. The monthly average energy bill for a new build property is £109, whereas the bill for existing property is £245 – that’s a saving of £140* per month or £1,685 per year. Those that buy a new build house specifically see even greater annual savings of £2,195. It's thanks to A-rated boilers, low energy LED lighting, smart thermostats and installing appliances with high efficiency ratings.
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
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
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

₸Own New Rate Reducer is only available on selected new build homes at participating developments. Speak to a Countryside Homes local sales consultant for more information. The Own New Rate Reducer scheme cannot be combined with other offers or scheme. Participating lenders only. Own New Rate Reducer is available at the lender’s discretion. Mortgages up to a maximum value of £1,000,000 only. Rate reduction is for the fixed, introductory period of the mortgage only (usually 2, 3 or 5 years but this will depend on your individual mortgage). Your interest rate and mortgage payments will increase after the fixed, introductory period – please consult your independent financial advisor and/or your lender. See ownnew.co.uk for more information about the Own New Rate Reducer scheme. Countryside Homes is not regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and cannot offer mortgage advice.

You should confirm with your independent financial advisor that the Own New Rate Reducer Scheme, and any mortgage deal available with the benefit of the scheme, is suitable for you, in your individual circumstances. The Own New Rate Reducer Scheme is an independent third party scheme. If you are eligible for the scheme, then Countryside Homes will make a cash payment after completion of typically from 3% of the purchase price of the property to Own New, which will be passed onto the relevant participating lender (after deduction of Own New's commission) so that they can offer a mortgage product at a rate that is subsidised from their usual product range. Rate reductions, rates and savings are subject to availability of the Own New scheme. Any rates or savings quoted are examples provided for illustration only and you should not rely on them. The actual reduction, rate and saving you achieve will depend on your individual mortgage offer.

Mortgage offers will be made at the lender’s discretion and in line with lender’s criteria.
