Have you ever dreamed
of building your own home?

Custom build gives you control over your new home and much more design freedom than new housing developments typically allow, but unlike self-build lets you hand over the planning and delivery to a professional team.

The Northchurch Homes Custom Build team are here to support and assist every step of the way, from when you choose your plot with the assistance of Land Sales Support Ltd to Potton who have been in the self-build market for over 50 years and will guide you to securing planning permission, creating the design and constructing the frame for your home. Northchurch Homes offer a range of services to help make the experience of building your custom home as simple and stress-free as possible to create a house which suits your lifestyle and aspirations.

Creating your own home is a fantastic opportunity. It can be an enriching experience, albeit with some manageable challenges along the way.

Having a good understanding of the design process will help to ensure that you get what you want at the end of the project. By investing time at the beginning, you’re more likely to enjoy your project and still have finances at the end to enjoy the other good things that life has to offer. Ask the Northchurch Team for an initial concept information checklist to help you start planning your dream home.

Your Northchurch Site Manager will be on hand to ensure your dream becomes a reality co-ordinating the trades and services to deliver your dream home.  Our custom build consultants are there to help you with choosing from a palette of exterior wall finishes, to designing and configuring the internal layout to assisting with floor coverings, internal wall finishes, kitchen design and bathrooms. We are here to help.

Unlike a traditional house purchase, where the full sales price is paid on completion, the transaction is a broken down into a land transaction, which once completed a JCT build contract is put in place together with the design guide which will incorporate the build choices and specification that have been agreed. Build will commence and the standard construction and finishing of your new home will take approximately 40 weeks to deliver.

You can buy your home by financing the build using a specialist custom-build stage release mortgage*. Payment is due on a monthly stage payment basis. Any additional extras will be charged at the end of the four-week period to coincide with the regular payment schedule (not in line with the installation of the goods).

 *(Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.)
