Why Buy New? | New Home Benefits

Energy efficient homes

New homes are far more energy efficient than older houses, with owners saving almost £2,200 a year* on their energy bills. Mortgage lenders now offer special green mortgages which take those savings into account when assessing how much a homeowner can afford to borrow.

Providing your new house has an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) of B or above, like all Kellen homes, you can qualify for a green mortgage.

Every Kellen home features quality materials and energy-efficient appliances to reduce environmental impact and save you even more money. Kellen homes are fitted with energy-efficient LED lighting and two-zone smart programmable gas central heating system with thermostatic radiator valves. Our new homes also have stylish UPVC flush sash windows, French doors with double-glazed units, and a 7.4 kW electric vehicle charger.

Better for the environment

Because new homes are more energy efficient, they are better for the planet. However, we understand that the process of sourcing materials and building a new home has an impact on our environment, which is why we take pride in our sustainable approach to housebuilding.

Our commitments include rehoming and protecting wildlife, preserving and planting new trees, shrubs and wildflower meadows, as well as recycling all our build materials and using local suppliers and sub-contractors.
