Why now is the time to buy a new home in Sampford Peverell

We are highlighting  changes to stamp duty, which could add thousands to the cost of homeownership.

While the rates rise for completions from April 1, 2025, a small number of homes at The Orchards in Sampford Peverell  are  ready to move into now.  There’s even the rare opportunity to own a new build bungalow.

Edenstone operations director Chris Edge said: “It’s well-known that property searches increase just after Christmas, but there’s no time like the present when it comes to looking for a new home in Sampford Peverell. Visit the show home now to start your home buying journey and you’ll be able to ring in the changes in your new home in early 2025.
