- Thank you for watching! We hope this was helpful if you're looking to buy a new build house in the UK in 2024. We bought a Linden Homes Eveleigh, which is a 3 bed semi detached property.
Head over to our channel to see our other home related videos. Such as a house tour, lots of DIY & a huge garden renovation!

1 year in a NEW BUILD HOUSE UK 2024 | our experience
We moved into our new build a few months before you did and there was and still is so much negativity around them. We absolutely love our house, it’s warm, dry and safe and has a 10 year warranty - what’s not to like. It’s so frustrating that people spread negativity towards them, most of them have never bought one. We also had snags but they were all sorted so quickly so no complaints there. Here’s to many more years in our new homes!
Love this! So true
Completely agree! We miss our new build so much (even tho we love our house). The neighbour cut away is so funny hahahaha
Check your cameras 😂😂😂
Thankyou so much for explaining about buying a New Build, loved little sweet Millie in the background on the pillow, look forward to more Adventures with you, Peace..x
Love your videos Bethan & Joe. Milly is so cute!
This was very helpful. Thank you ❤x
We moved into our new build in July 2022. Absolutely love our house we actually downsized, had a lot of snags but to be honest they have sorted most, apart from our loft so much condensation causing mould. But other than that it’s fabulous. 💕💕💕
Great you guys are happy with your purchase. I think it's the same as with anything it's what you make of it that makes the difference. You've put a lot of time and effort into it and you deserve to be happy there. Well done and keep up the good work. Can't wait to see what you guys get upto next.
Thanks so much ❤️🥰
Cheers for doing this. Useful 👍
Pleasure! 🫶
Hi Beth and Joe great video especially if any one is thinking of buying a new build❤❤❤
That’s what we hoped 🥰
Loved your video as always. I started watching your videos as we were about to buy a new build. We moved may last year and absolutely love it. Our house suprisingly has quite a bit of storage which is good. I love seeing what you have done with your house and get loads of ideas for ours. Thanks guys 😊
Ahh you're lucky! We've got a fair amount but probably have way too much stuff 🤣 glad you're enjoying the content ❤️
Waiting for our Pembroke to be finished, thanks for the video.
so excited for you!
Useful video! I'm about to complete on my first new build soon. What were your biggest/worst snags?
How exciting!! Our worst was the hob / kitchen worktop, we had the whole thing replaced - we also had an unworking oven which was replaced with a better version & a very wonky sink 😂 you just have to be honest and let them know you’re not happy with the end product xx
We are looking at relocating this year and have visited a new development which we really liked. Having researched a bit further am now conscious that access to amenities isn’t as good as it would be if we bought an existing house. The dilemma we have, is does that issue outweigh the benefits of a new house with everything new, better insulation and a guarantee?
That's an interesting point! We did mention that on another of our videos that new build developments are usually built on the edges of towns. So as you say, they are a little bit further from the town centre. We have the same situation and sometimes we do feel like we have to jump in the car to get a nice meal etc but have gotten used to that and I definitely think the benefits of a new build outweigh the benefits of being centrally located!
Yeah that's a good question. You need to ask yourself how often would you need the amenities and could you plan them in on route to/ from somewhere. Would you enjoy walking to them? You would save fuel and be more green. Try and imagine yourself in each location.
Hi love your classes planters. What sort of timber cladding did you use pls? Thanks 😊x
Cladded *
Ah thank you! It's called shadow gap. We got it from a timber merchant near Birmingham but you might be able to find it elsewhere 🙂
Great thanks ☺️
We are in the process of buying a Linden home. Construction just started.
How long did your one take from start to finish?
Was the completion on time or was there any delays?
Hi! That's a good question! We were quite early in the process too on our phase, we too bought before the house was built but it was about 5 months from us reserving the plot to us completing. They seemed to be quite vague about the completion date so that it didn't seem delayed (if it was at all) we just kept in contact with them, just so we knew what the progress was like.
Hope that helps!
@@BethanandJoe 5 months isn't bad at all. They gave us 3 months window at the moment which is Aug/Sep/Oct.
Many thanks for the reply 👍
