Great video as usual! I'd love to see properties at the value of £150,000 to £200,000 which would be more attainable for the majority of folk like me. Perhaps also some older houses instead of new builds? Thanks,

[@enfado23]

Yes definitely... but the Help To Buy scheme is really good though as it gives us a lot more choice for places I otherwise wouldn't be able to afford

[@D-Dollie]

Exactly what I was thinking. I can never afford 400K house!!

[@rachelkingsley668]

Or maybe a new flat or apartment?

[@petraskvarc317]

come to south wales haha for 150-200k houses

[@fxtch]

Agreed 😎

[@JorenHerremans]

Great home. One thing to keep in mind for the viewers is that this home would only START at £410k. With Redrow you basically buy a skeleton house. If you take all the options for it to look like this show home, you will be closer to spending £500k.

[@TheLuxuryHomeShow]

Good points made 👍🏼

[@philipcollins6122]

I viewed an Oxford Show home in Okehampton. The basic (included in the price) choices are much higher standard than other builders. The upgrade price of the kitchen floor was an extra 6k and the fancy worktop an extra 6k above the standard. I wasn't keen on the kitchen floor. My current kitchen floor is a similar size, it is a wood affect lino, looks stunning and was £200 plus £30 fitting. If too much money is spent upgrading then this amount of money will not be recovered from any resale. All the upgrades were priced in the show home. The Redrow Canterbury Showhomeupgrades (not furniture but including fitted wardrobes) came to over 30k. I have also viewed at Dawlish, some empty Redrow new homes. Some were built and left empty for months. Redrow had installed flooring on the empty homes and thrown that into the price. If a house is built and empty and unsold, then there is negotiation for extras eg fitted wardrobes, full tiling of toilets, ensuites, quality flooring and if part exchanging, a higher price paid for yours.

[@mjones178]

I’ve bought a Brand New Redrow house in the Midlands. You’re right about the options- it’s a mine field! A video about optional upgrades to have and what to avoid I think would help people. Plus I picked up some tips which managed to get optional upgrades for free

[@jaanmoti1]

I do like the room layout in this property. I don't know if it's fenshui or personal preference, I prefer rooms with beds facing you so you walk in and bed is all ready. I feel the bed dresses the room and should have fitted wardrobes on the other end as shown in this house.

[@pl4819]

We went to view a Redrow development over Berkshire today, the agent stated show homes are usually spec around 20k worth extras. Mind blowing.

[@Anewsandgossip]

It’s a gorgeous home and lovely furnished. I love what they have done with the kitchen too. Instead of being all white they added warmth classic brown to it too and it looks cosy. Loved the house 😍😍😍

[@paperandtwine]

A good hack for working out how much floor space there is, is to look up at the ceiling

[@Amanda56193]

I have this house style in Scotland it was the very first to be built which is now 13 years ago. So it's such a popular family home still. I have a slightly different layout as have a window next to front door which makes hall a lot brighter and double doors from my lounge to dining room. There is a wall between kitchen and dining room which we have always contemplated on removing. I have 2 windows in my kitchen. Upstairs is very similar. I paid a lot less for it but Redrow stopped building in Scotland. I love my house its great to see its still getting built after all this time.

Wow, this is an amazing house for a new build and at that price. Looks fantastic from both the outside and the inside. Looks like extremely high quality. As someone’s notes though, this looks like it has many options which would take the price up a bit towards £500k.

[@julianamohamed4241]

Hi Matt and Summer, thanks for the video. I just bought a 4 bedrooms a study and utility, detached house with double garage and space to park 4 cars, it’s near Norwich, and the developer is Norfolk Homes. I bought it for £410k, the kitchen came with Bosch double ovens, Bosch 5 ring gas glass hob and Bosch dishwasher. Had to buy all other white goods myself. The ground floor has underfloor heating throughout with smart thermostats both downstairs and upstairs. House is 1432 sq ft. For the price, I much prefer the layout of this house just because the family room is part of the kitchen. But there’s a glass double door connecting my kitchen to the living room so It’s ok I guess. You should check out Norfolk Homes, at the moment they’ve just launched a new phase in Poringland but only a few units left. For the different kitchen cabinet colours in this house, I really like it, contemporary, goes with the design of the house. Thanks again guys, take care and stay safe.

[@alicegreen5282]

LOOOVE this house! Looks really cozy and modern!

[@thewraithize]

Worst thing about new developments is all the other houses over looking your garden

[@MJ-YT-USR]

Indeed, the privacy on new developments is very poor. Once some bushes and tress get established it will improve, but will never be great.

[@harrypike5140]

Right! Been looking through all these new build vids and they are just kind of give off the same, somewhat clinical vibe. They aren't bad looking houses, but just - obviously - not lived in, and moreover, the surrounding area isn't lived in, and is similarly clinical. It doesn't feel like an actual community, or an area where you can 'live', but rather what it actually is; just a space of land where a bunch of houses have been sprung up. All these areas look like USA-style developments where you have to drive to your local town / community hub. I've googled several new build developments and they're always just in the middle of some random area with no pubs in walking distance, not great transport links, lack of services nearby e.g. doctors & dentists, and so on. All these things must be considered. It's all well and good moving into some brand new build as a young couple, but how good is the rea for having kids? How easily is it to meet other people around your age in the community, or is there any community nearby at all? Unfortunately, I feel like most new build areas are new build areas for a reason...historically they haven't been built on as residential because there isn't much nearby. They don't feel 'part' of a pace, you know.

[@tracyhoward8228]

england is a tiny island. it aint texas

[@louism.4980]

@@harrypike5140 That's a good assessment, but pretty much every suburb is like that (not just new builds). Few amenities nearby as it's just streets of houses, that's the sacrifice you pay for paying a lot less than how much it would cost you to live near the the town centre. Obviously not every suburb is the same, but that is the expectation, there is not going to be much to do or see that is within walking distance.

[@bigbadchillybear]

This!!

[@yasalleasha5981]

I live in a block of flats in Bournemouth built by Redrow and have found that they have made a few shortcuts here and stupidly place radiators in awkward places but have noticed that the houses they build are done a lot better. Love your vids guys, have only found your channel today but you have entertained me all day while I’m isolating 😄😝

[@Paulhilvert]

Another really nice house looks like a great new development I think I prefer the interior on the smaller 4 bed but I do like the open kitchen diner in this house and good size bedrooms. Thanks again guys really cool you two seem to be so nice and genuine 😊👍.

Thanks for making videos like these mid range budget new homes. Very good budget new places for start up families coming even from aboard!

[@georgie-4402]

I have a Redrow flat in the South East, which is almost the same price as this house. Mind-blowing! Anyway, I have that same colour combination in the kitchen (dark wood and white) but in high gloss. Wasn't sure about it first but it's actually nice to break the space up a bit!

[@timward3116]

I love the homes in this series. There's something wonderful about new-builds - the smells, the perfect cleanliness, peaceful decor, furniture chosen specifically for its spot in the room. I'm not British, though, so KZbin is my magic carpet to Britain. Question: I have never noticed cabinets under bathroom sinks and the sinks don't seem to be set in a counter top in British homes. I only see pedestal sinks or, maybe, a sink that is hung on the wall. Are all sinks in British new-builds pedestal sinks without cabinets and a bit of counter? Where are cleaners and the next roll of toilet paper stored? One would hate to run out of toilet paper unexpectedly and be forced to walk down a hall to find the next roll.

[@davidpayne8898]

What a lovely home !! It’s amazing what you get for your money in other parts of the country. I just looked at a place in isleworth for 475,000 for a two bed apartment with two bathrooms. What would be good when doing new builds if you include what other costs you may incur I.E service charges. Its always told last by the agent or not at all until you ask them. Good video

[@laurameakin]

We don’t have this developer in my area (tayside) but I’m liking their homes in this estate and whoever is doing their decor is doing a good job of staging. Price wise I can’t comment on schools, town and amenities etc as I don’t know area but seems a fair price for a new build that size and that quality.

[@francoiseblair3018]

Loving your home tours! How about new builds in Kent?

[@vladandlaika]

I live in the USA but enjoy seeing how homes in England are different and similar to homes here. I really like this model and the layout on both floors. It is a clean straightforward design with some nice touches. Could you please comment on garages, basements, and air conditioning in new homes in the UK for this American. Thank you and thank you both for what you are doing!

[@philipcollins6122]

The garage for Redrow - The Cambridge house design is a single garage about 2.96m x 5.68m. English homes don't have basements or air conditioning. This is a popular house design which Redrow build all over the UK. The bay window and kitchen design has changed recently. Here are some resales (non show homes) . The plot sizes are small for new build homes compared to older properties and most new UK developments have social housing on them due to government legislation. You could have a professional couple both working full time and paying a mortgage for a 4 bed detached, opposite a single stay at home Mum with two kids with autism living in a 2 bed terrace (Ledbury house design) with no garage, just a space out front, with all their bills paid for by the government. Some private buyers don't like new build estates that have too many social houses on them. Too many social houses can bring social problems to your neighbourhood. www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/72529110#/ www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/96536093#/ www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/71725095#/

I like the layout but would prefer an island in the kitchen. I would also replace the kitchen living area in with a formal dining area. I also like the two-tone kitchen color scheme.

[@Scientist538]

What happens when you need to replace the fridge? Also interested in hearing critique from builders who work on redrow sites if any happen to see this comment, I have heard some bad stuff about them from tradies, this is coming from a RDW shareholder so has brought me some concerns. Would be interesting to see a quick shot of the lofts just out of curiosity to see the storage space up there and general design of the trusses, wouldn't expect you'd get much considering the top story partially vaulted ceiling design. Thanks for the video.

[@MarlonKingShow]

I'm biased as I own one, but I love the layout of this house, I think it is the perfect size if you are looking for a slightly bigger than the normal family house. the 4th bed is a box room but otherwise, I have loved living in mind for the last 3 years. Having a big family area and a separate living room when you have kids really does help. My one has the island/wrap around kitchen work top which is better for kitchen space but you have a dash less space to put your dinning table and family area. I also don't have the cupboard in the hall way (though I wish I did now seeing it). thanks for the tour.

Love your videos btw!!!

[@andrewchurcher2367]

Good looking New Build thanks guys

[@laurameakin]

The two tones in the kitchen is a developers trick sometimes to show u the options available in the kitchens etc when u buy early on the building process. Obviously if u end up buying the show home it could be bought as seen or u can buy and they would change doors over for charge. As a show home usually obviously furniture sold in sometimes too. But I like the two tone of done on the right doors. What I’m noticing tho is the placement of furniture... right up against radiators when most of us just wouldn’t do that so again some rooms looking bigger than they are.

[@meganaddinall1836]

You should come to sheffield & do a tour there !! I would love to watch that x

[@AkashAB4U]

I like that this house is bigger than the previous one next-door. It is nicely designed and very spacious. This house with four bedrooms is close to the cost of our home here in Queens, New York. It also feels bigger than our house too, despite ours having a full basement and full standup attic with plenty space. The space in this house is well utilised. What I didn't like about this house, which is minor: 1) It has the dark cupboards in the kitchen, which makes the room feel darker. 2) Instead of an island there is a dining table. 3) There is a second living area with couch and tele. The dining table could have been in that area instead.
