Part Exchange Offers Fast Lane To Luxury For Buyers Inspired By Pop-up Show Home £1 Million...

...Heath Wood Collection

The stylish new pop-up show home at the £1 million-plus Heath Wood collection, near the West Sussex village of Felbridge, is set to provide instant inspiration for aspiring buyers.

Families at one of award-winning Linden Homes’ flagship developments have more reason than most to anticipate getting the keys, thanks to the properties’ luxurious specification, spacious interiors and stylish design.

Heath Wood is a selection of five-bedroom executive homes showcasing the highest quality craftsmanship. The residences are shared between two private addresses set back from a quiet country lane.

The pop-up show home – in the Felmere style – was conceived to give househunters an immediate taste of the luxury lifestyle on offer. But it will only be available to experience between July 20th and August 2nd, so time is of the essence to make the most of the opportunity.

The Felmere ranges across 3,470 square feet of internal space, plus a double garage. The open plan breakfast/family area adjoins the spacious kitchen and opens onto the extensive, turfed garden. Upstairs three of the five bedrooms are en suite and two feature balconies.

The wider attractions of Heath Wood include large gardens, expansive rooms, lavish fixtures and fittings, and thoughtfully detailed architecture. Sleek kitchens are bespoke with granite or quartz worktops and fully integrated appliances.

To secure such an aspirational home without any impatient countdown, Linden Homes presents its Part Exchange scheme. Linden Homes will act as the guaranteed cash buyer to cut out the hassle of property chains, estate agents’ fees and selling your old property.

Chris and Shelley Sills were one couple who seized the Part Exchange opportunity at Heath Wood to quickly secure their family’s dream home.

Shelley said: “We part-exchanged, which was useful; it would have made it much more complicated without having part exchange. If we had not sold by the time the new house was ready, if we had a long property chain that dragged on, and having four children – it was easier for it to be cut and dried.

“Lynne and Sarah at the sales office have been fantastic. They’ve been so helpful, friendly and really accommodating. It’s made a big difference to us and helped make everything go very smoothly.”

Part Exchange begins with the buyer choosing their Linden home and putting down a reservation fee of between £500 and £1,000. The current property should not be worth more than 70 per cent of the chosen new home.

Local estate agents will value the existing property and once a value has been agreed, Linden Homes will be the guaranteed cash buyer.

The customer doesn’t have to move out until the new home is ready – so all they have to do is start packing. To speed up the process, there is the opportunity to use Linden Homes’ preferred solicitor and mortgage broker.

Susan Whiting, marketing manager Linden Homes Guildford, said: “As visitors will see at our pop-up show home, the properties at Heath Wood fit Part Exchange perfectly. They provide that next step up the ladder for aspirational families who want a home that offers that special quality and luxury – not just from the house but the surrounding area too.

“When it comes to moving house, busy families have enough going on in their lives without the extra hassle of selling their old property – that’s precisely what Part Exchange is designed to solve.

“Heath Wood is attracting interest from as far away as Manchester and also those looking to relocate from London, so there’s plenty of competition for the remaining homes. We’re advising people to get in touch now to avoid missing out on this very special opportunity.”

For commuters, the popular market town East Grinstead, just two miles away, has a train service to London Bridge and Victoria. Alternative stations such as Three Bridges and Gatwick also provide an excellent direct service

Felbridge itself borders the High Weald, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and is close to local schools, shops and transport links. East Grinstead hosts eateries, bars, a theatre and cinema, gym and shopping.
