Setting up home - Live the fantasy
The reasons for making a move are as individual as people but what is shared is the anticipation of how life will be in a new home. Properties today are often sold on the basis of the lifestyle they offer as much as the actual design. Whether selecting your very own first home where you can sit back and relax, selecting an abode big enough to accommodate a growing family, or looking for the luxury of an attractive smaller space that can be locked up and left whilst enjoying carefree living in the empty next years. Whatever the reason, setting-up home can be an exciting prospect.
Whatever you desire for your new home you will want to try and ensure that the reality matches up to the fantasy and there are certainly ways to increase your chances.
Choosing to purchase a Stately park home provides you with the opportunity to have an input in the design of your living space. You might be considering sharing your first home with a friend when the provision of two double bedrooms and two bathrooms giving adequate personal space would be beneficial.
When choosing a family home where more people have to be considered, flexibility can be offered in the layout to provide a playroom or study, as so required.
If downsizing is your plan, your priorities will change. You will want to ensure that the new place has the space to store those precious things you want to retain but give you a layout which is easy to look after with the minimum of effort. You might wish to seize the opportunity to have a different living space than you have ever had before, choosing perhaps open-plan living and informality into your life rather than a traditional design.
Stately homes can be purchased for private land, for which local planning permission would need to be sought. Alternatively, a park can be selected to suit your own personal requirements. Moving to a residential park can be an attractive option, where living in landscaped surroundings with like-minded people, comforted by the security and community spirit this offers is favoured by many. There are many residential parks throughout the UK to choose from, offering a variety of facilities. The British Holiday and Home Parks Association publish the ‘Residential Home Parks Directory’ which gives a comprehensive list in county order. This book is available to purchase via their website:
www.parkhome.org.uk or by ringing Tel: 01452-526911. Alternatively you can use our park finder which will list parks in your area. Once you have selected a park, a visit may be arranged with the owners or managers to view the plots available. This also gives you the opportunity to order the home of your choice with them, knowing that the transport, siting onto a prepared base and connection to all services will be arranged for you.
At Stately, we put the same care and attention into looking after our customers as we do in building our homes, from the time of placing your order through to the Customer Care offered once you move in.
