Persimmon Homes are building houses at Newbold. The sign tells the tale. What is basically a terrace house with a parking spot sells for about £165K.
A detached house sells for about £240K upwards.
This is modern housebuilding, low energy, (double glazed, low ceilings, well insulated, built on concrete rafts). The price (paid for on a mortgage) clocks up when you start specifying kitchens, bathrooms, conservatories.
Increasingly Persimmon have been peddling a form of 3 story ersatz vernacular architecture to build up density to meet the requirements for new houses. The front of this house with it's stuck on door is a mess with windows dottted about of different sizes.
