Launch Success For Barratt At Liberty Park, Caterham

Barratt Homes

BARRATT SOUTHERN COUNTIES has achieved an impressive start at Liberty Park, Phase I of its development on Stanstead Road in Chaldon, Caterham. Prospective purchasers have been flocking to look around the stunning new showhome and one of the new family homes was reserved almost immediately at the launch weekend.

Liberty Park offers 24 three, four and five-bedroom luxury homes, with prices starting at £437,995.

“We are delighted with this result at Liberty Park”, says Trevor Sawyer, managing director of Barratt Southern Counties. “This clearly demonstrates that there's still an active market, in an area like Caterham, for high quality, family homes that provide value for money. We are receiving a high volume of enquiries.”

Barratt is offering qualifying potential buyers attractive incentives. These include the chance to part-exchange their existing homes through its 'Home Exchange' service, making the business of buying and selling properties almost effortless and virtually stress free.

The specification of the Liberty Park homes is luxurious, with three bath/shower rooms and kitchens with top of the range appliances that meet the most testing energy-saving standards.

As one of Britain's foremost sustainable developers, Barratt has ensured that Liberty Park also has strong eco credentials. The development will incorporate ground source heat pumps and other eco-friendly features that will meet the needs of today's discerning buyers concerned about the future of the environment.

Eventually the development will extend to 48 houses. The next phase, Liberty Place, will also be situated on Stanstead Road and will include two-bedroom apartments.

The town of Caterham is within easy reach and hosts a wide variety of bars, restaurants, shops and leisure facilities; Croydon is just a 20 minute drive away, offering access to high street shopping names at The Whitgift Shopping Centre.
