A selection of new homes at a Crest Nicholson development

Buying a new home is the biggest investment of your life

Why compromise by purchasing a second-hand property with the potential for hidden problems when you can choose a brand-new Crest Nicholson property? Buying a new home offers more than just a blank canvas to make your own; it provides peace of mind and a range of energy saving benefits.

Built in Quality

All new build homes are independently assessed during construction and are covered by a 10-year NHBC Buildmark, Premier Guarantee or another warranty provider guarantee. The first two years are covered by Crest Nicholson’s own dedicated customer service team.

The design stage incorporates security and low-level maintenance, and a 'fit for purpose' inspection is conducted on every new build home before occupancy.

Crest Nicholson homeowners are supported by a dedicated customer care team who ensure the highest standard of service.

Championing sustainability – efficiency as standard

One of the key benefits of new build homes is that they come with great insulation and the latest energy-saving features, making them cheaper to run than older homes. Our energy-efficient new homes are built to reduce waste and be environmentally friendly. At Crest Nicholson, we also create a sense of community within our developments by adding parks, play areas, and other features for the benefit of all who live there.

At Crest Nicholson, we will build you a beautiful, modern home which provides:

  • Higher insulation standards
  • Energy-efficient appliances and lighting, and areas which maximise natural light
  • Water-efficient appliances
  • Transport links in mind
  • Safety – for you and your visitors
  • Carefully selected quality materials with a lower environmental impact
  • A healthier environment through ventilation and design

We will seek out new and evolving technologies and skills to continuously raise the sustainability standards of our new homes, which will help you to reduce your carbon emissions, environmental 'footprint' and lower your energy bills.

As a Crest Nicholson homeowner, you can:

  • Reduce your energy use – and your gas and electricity bills
  • Reduce your water use and charges
  • Increase your recycling
  • Choose more sustainable modes of transport
  • Access local amenities easily
  • Enjoy open space and landscaped communal areas
  • In some areas, benefit from renewable energy sources
  • Live in harmony within a sustainable community
