Frequently Asked Questions:

WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THE PURCHASE PRICE?

Everything that is inside the redbrick pavers that run around the outside of the house including the fencing surrounding the courtyard and shed.

CAN I HAVE A GARDEN?

Your house will be placed in a park like setting of trees, shrubberies and grassed areas linked by pathways to ponds and other area of the village which staff will maintain right up to your house.  However, if you wish to create a rockery or bed for bedding plants you are welcome to use an area of land immediately adjoining your property by agreement with the village management although village staff will not maintain your planting.

IS THE SHED INCLUDED?

Yes, a village type shed is included as is a whirly inside your courtyard for you washing.  Additional exterior structures would not be in keeping with the village image and would not normally be permitted.

WHAT ABOUT INSIDE THE SHOW HOME, WHAT IS INCLUDED?

Everything you see except the furniture, washing machine, curtains and rails, pictures, mirrors, microwave, and the light fittings.  Other than that the bath and shower room light fittings which are included, as are all external lights.  The house is wired for TV aerials to the main bedroom and living room ready for you to connect your TV / HiFi antennas.  Yes, the house is fully finished; tiled, decorated & carpeted, all set to move your furniture in.

Gas no; there is no town gas in the village.  You can have oil fired central heating in some of the properties as an extra (currently £4,500.00) if requested at an early stage of construction.  The oil tank is placed underground.  Our houses are so well insulated that the electric heating included in the purchase price is more than adequate and the choice of the majority of our existing villagers.

PETS, CAN I TAKE MY PET?

Horses no, but a smaller dog or cat that is unlikely to disturb other villagers would be welcome.  If any pet becomes a general nuisance the village management does have the authority to have it removed under the deed of conditions.

Yes you can sell at any time for the full market value to anyone you wish, however whoever occupies the property must be over 55 years of age and the village management will partake in any profit.
