Save £1,400 a year at Wentworth Grange

A leading housebuilder is encouraging homebuyers to buy new at its Barnsley development in a bid to save more than £1,400 on energy bills.

Persimmon Homes said today’s buyer needs to consider the cost savings associated with buying a newly-built home at their Wentworth Grange development as opposed to an older equivalent.

Simon Whalley, sales director for Persimmon Homes West Yorkshire, said: “According to recent research by the NHBC (National Housing Building Council), those who live in new build homes built to today’s standards could save more than £1,400 a year on their energy bills when compared to neighbours in older homes.*

“The research indicates that a four-bedroom detached new home, like our Roseberry, could be 57 per cent* cheaper to run than an updated Victorian equivalent. And our three-bedroom semi-detached Hanbury could be 53 per cent* cheaper to run than an older build of the same style.” Persimmon Homes has predicted that with the £1,400 savings per year estimated by the NHBC, families could save approximately £35,000 over the lifetime of a 25 -year mortgage.

Simon added: “New homes offer enormous cost savings to households, both annually and over the lifetime of a mortgage.

“And while energy efficiency is only one of the advantages of buying a new build property, the potential to save such a large amount of money per year could mean the difference between buying a small home and your forever home.”

Wentworth Grange is a stunning collection of spacious three and four-bedroom homes, epitomising the unmistakable quality and style that is synonymous with Persimmon Homes.

The development is located in a popular residential suburb of to the south of Barnsley, offering excellent transport links with the M1 just minutes away.
