A FIVE-BEDROOM HOME IN PR3 COULD COST LESS THAN YOU THINK
SET in a charming Lancashire village, with a quality specification and a host of energy efficient features, buyers may expect to pay a premium to live in Broughton.
The reality is they could secure a new home for just two-thirds of the cost of an older property with the same number of bedrooms in the surrounding area.
The current average asking price for a five-bedroom home in PR3 is £635,818*.
But the average price of a five-bedroom home at Elan’s Acorn Meadows development is £426,995.
Elan regional sales and marketing director Marie Morris said: “Our new homes in Broughton are competitively priced compared with homes in the surrounding PR3 area. While standalone properties may in part inflate the average price, the headline figures only tell part of the story. For example, they don’t reflect the condition of the property and how much it’s likely to cost to bring in line with a new home, its size or what the energy bills would be. Make the switch from an older property to a new home and you could save £200 a month or £2,400 a year on your energy bills**. You could even receive a 5% deposit boost towards your new home. Plus, a move to Acorn Meadows offers the chance to be part of a new community with the added sense of security that brings.”
There’s a choice of detached five-bedroom homes available at Acorn Meadows in Broughton, with prices from £399,995 for a Heddon style property spanning 1,504 sq ft of living space.
The largest home available is the generously proportioned Malborough, offering 1,671 sq ft or carefully considered accommodation designed with modern living in mind and with a host of upgrades included in the price.
The lounge is at the front of the property, with a combined kitchen, dining and family room at the rear benefitting from French doors opening out onto the garden. A breakfast bar helps separate the practicality of the kitchen from the sociable space, while providing additional storage and workspace.
A utility keeps the washer and dryer out of the kitchen. A cloakroom completes the ground floor.
Upstairs, two of the five bedrooms benefit from an en-suite, with the main bedroom also featuring a walk-in wardrobe. The family bathroom serves the other three bedrooms.
The Malborough is available with flooring and window dressings, light fittings, kitchen appliances included five-ring hob, dishwasher and fridge, wardrobes to two bedrooms, vanities in the main bathroom and both en-suites, plus turf to the rear garden.
For those who don’t need to use a deposit contribution but perhaps want help to sell an existing property, Elan’s EasyMove scheme could be the key.
Located on Whittingham Lane in Broughton, the homes enjoy a semi-rural village setting just four miles from Preston.
The sales centre is open Thursday to Monday from 10am to 5pm. For details see
