NEW energy efficient Redwing homes in Ellesmere Port will be available to buy as well as rent.

Built by developer Northstone, the 218 houses at Glisk will be rated EPC B and contain energy conserving features and technology which will help reduce bills. Prospective tenants and homeowners are now able to add their names to the reserve list.

The site will boast a mix of two, three and four-bedroom homes with community green spaces and lush planting. Northstone has revealed a first look inside the showhomes, now open alongside a drop-in ‘Huddle’ space to the meet the team.

The high-tech new homes are designed with high ceilings, big windows and open-plan interiors. They also boast insulation and triple glazed windows to prevent heat loss; smart tech that recovers heat from waste-water and controls the lighting and heating; and electric vehicle charging points.

Anita Jolley, Sales Director at Northstone, said: "It’s fantastic to be throwing open the doors to the design-led homes at Glisk. They’re our first ever properties in Ellesmere Port and Cheshire and we’re on a mission to tackle people’s outdated perceptions of new build homes.

"The properties are not only super energy efficient, they’re beautifully designed, built to a high standard and are packed full of features that make them unlike anything currently on the market. We’ve already got prospective residents lining up to reserve and we’d encourage people to come down to see us and have a look around."

Those buying will benefit from recently announced changes to Stamp Duty, with the threshold before any tax paid set to rise to £250,000 for all and £425,000 for first time buyers.

Rentals are being offered by Letta, a new Peel L&P company set up to offer quality homes for rent. Those reserving now will be able to move in from November, with the homes let and managed through Redwing, part of Liverpool-based property company Regenda Group.

Louise Nicholson, Branch Manager at Redwing, said: "Homes at Glisk are the first of many excellent, high quality and sustainable homes by Letta. They’re not only built to an exceptional standard, but provide flexible living space, natural light and low emissions. There’s no doubt they will be extremely popular in the rental market."

Glisk is the latest community to be launched by Northstone, who are also delivering new homes in Bolton, Wigan and Barrowford, Lancashire.
