There are so many benefits of buying a newly built home over an older property, it’s an easy decision to make. Everything is new, clean, compliant with the latest standards, and built to last. The list is long, here are just a few examples:

We take pride in what we do, so you can take pride in where you live.
Our philosophy of doing things the right way and not the easy way can be seen in every home we build. We care deeply about the impact of our work and the legacy we leave – creating homes and communities defined by craft, care and social responsibility. Homes that people trust and aspire to, for this generation and the next.

All Hopkins Homes are designed to be highly energy efficient, helping homeowners enjoy lower running costs from day one. On average, new build homes are 21% cheaper to run than older properties, saving homeowners over £420 a year on energy bills, without changing their lifestyle.
With modern construction standards and A or B EPC ratings as standard, our homes are more comfortable, more sustainable and better prepared for the future. Most older homes sit at a D rating. Bridging that gap isn’t easy or cheap. Upgrading an older property to match the energy efficiency of a new build can cost anywhere between £23,100 and £83,000.
By choosing a new Hopkins Home, that investment is already taken care of. Energy efficiency comes as standard, not as an afterthought.
