Buying a home is one of the biggest investments you’ll ever make, so it makes sense to minimise risk wherever possible. Choosing a new build home does exactly that, offering reassurance from day one.
All new build homes come with a 10-year structural warranty, giving you confidence in the quality of your new home. Unlike many second-hand properties, you won’t need to budget for an expensive structural survey or face the average repair bills that can often run into thousands of pounds.
Beyond peace of mind, new build homes also come with a host of financial benefits. Many developments, including the highly sought-after Graven Hill in Bicester, offer attractive incentives such as stamp duty contributions, covered legal fees, deposit support, or part-exchange options to help make your move more affordable and stress-free.
Right now, there’s a time-limited winter offer on the Enstone, a stylish three-bedroom semi-detached home, now available for just £435,000. Designed with sustainability in mind, the Enstone features modern, energy-efficient technology including an Air Source Heat Pump, EV charging point, ground floor under floor heating and a Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) system, helping to maintain a constant supply of warm, fresh, filtered air throughout the home.
With a selection of bespoke incentives currently on offer, these are tailored to the buyer’s needs and offer the opportunity to make thousands of pounds in savings, have your stamp duty or legal fees paid or receive deposit contributions on many homes.
In addition, if you have a home to sell, the part-exchange option can remove much of the hassle of selling your existing property. It eliminates estate agent fees and helps avoid the uncertainty of a property chain. You’ll also be able to remain in your current home right up until completion day, ensuring a smooth and straightforward move.
If you opt for a custom new build at Graven Hill, this also gives you more flexibility than a traditional new build if you reserve early in the construction process. Early buyers can choose from a range of internal layouts, fixtures, and finishes, allowing you to tailor your home to suit your lifestyle, taste, and family needs. From incorporating a home office or open-plan living to selecting a south-facing kitchen, you can personalise your living space without the stress of managing a build yourself.
Each home comes with thoughtfully designed layout options and a choice of high-quality fixtures and finishes. Integrated appliances are included as standard, with upgrade options available for those looking to add a personal touch. Plus, Graven Hill homes come complete with turf and patio as standard — so your outdoor space is ready to enjoy from day one.
Outdoor space is prime with Graven Hill being one of Oxfordshire’s greenest developments – more than half of the site is dedicated to green space – including parks, amenity areas, allotments and woodland.
Located just 15 minutes from Oxford by train and less than two hours from London, Graven Hill is within walking distance of Bicester Outlet Village and the railway station, and offers a primary school, cocktail bar, wine shop and deli, coffee shop and state-of-the-art dental practice on site. This exceptional community offers the perfect blend of town and country living.
Don’t delay — the earlier you buy, the more choice, incentives, and benefits you will enjoy. Make your New Year’s resolution a move that’s smarter, simpler, and far less stressful with a new build home at Graven Hill.
