NEW HOMES RELEASED AT POPULAR SITE IN WATTON

Norfolk-based house builder Abel Homes has released the fifth phase of its highly successful hus46+ development in Watton, where it is building 101 highly-sustainable new homes.

The latest phase – the last but one – sees four houses and a bungalow released for sale, on a site which has seen each successive phase sold out ahead of schedule.

Two three-bed houses, two two-bed houses and a three-bed bungalow make up the latest release – on a road named Saddlers Drive, reflecting the site’s former role as home to the famous Abels shire horses. 

Visitors to the site are met with a huge shire horse collage made of found farm implements, a piece of art commissioned by Abel Homes from leading wildlife artist Harriet Mead.

The new homes are contemporary in design, and boast the latest in energy-efficient features such as photo-voltaic solar panels and high levels of insulation.  Buyers will not only benefit from lower energy bills, but will receive payments from the index-linked ‘Feed in Tariff’ from the government for 20 years as well.

As well as the energy-efficient features, each of the new homes has a high level of features, including A-rated Bosch appliances (stainless steel electric oven, stainless steel gas hob, as well as integrated fridge/freezer and dishwasher) and sustainably-sourced cedar cladding.

Prices for the newly released homes range from £165,000 to £285,000.

Natasha Goddard, sales and marketing manager for Abel Homes, which is based nearby in the town, said, “Our hus46+ site in Watton has proven to be very popular, with buyers loving the design of the whole site, with its wide open green spaces designed to foster a sense of community.

“Both the contemporary design and the sustainable nature of these new homes have been attractive to buyers; the energy efficient features mean that not only are these new homes affordable to buy, but they are efficient and affordable to run as well. 

“There is already a vibrant community feel amongst those living at hus46+, and we expect this new release to be very popular - and would advise early viewing.”
