Personalise your home
There are so many ways that you can personalise your new home from the moment it starts being built. With a huge combination of styles, you can tailor your home to your taste with choices and upgrades, making it truly your home, your way.
You can choose from a stunning selection of kitchen and bathroom upgrades, appliances, flooring, wall tiles, wardrobes and everything in between, all carefully selected from trusted manufacturers.
From interior design features to more practical options such as alarm systems, garden fencing and additional power points, get creative and put your stamp on your own blank canvas.
Soon after reserving your home, you’ll be invited to an options meeting, this is usually held within 28 days of reservation, and is where you can choose your stunning options and let your creative juices flow! As options depend on the build stage of your home*, your Sales Executive will outline everything that’s available to you and offer any advice or additional information you may need. However, it’s worth noting that if you reserve your home after the roof has been added, kitchen choices will have already been made.
To secure your options, all you’ll need to do is pay a 25% deposit, and then the balance can be paid on completion of your home.
Kitchen
We work with trusted UK kitchen suppliers to offer a stunning range of kitchen units, worktops and appliances for your dream home. We use trusted suppliers to fit kitchens who also specialise in creating a product that suits every customer’s individual styles and needs. The kitchen is the heart of the home, and so you can choose your cupboard doors, worktops, hob, cooker hood, tiles and much more to create your perfect space. All Gleeson kitchens come with an upstand and splashback as standard with upgrades and tiling available.

Garden
Don’t forget that the garden is an extension of your home; so, why wouldn’t you style it up and create a gorgeous space with our extensive optional extras, just like you would your interior?
Your garden comes as the perfect blank canvas, just waiting to be personalised to suit your style. You can choose from a range of fencing options, for your rear garden, plus a handy gate if you wish. For additional privacy you can upgrade to a 1.8 metre high fence (please note the fence posts will be placed on the your side of the garden and the fence will face outwards).
We can extend your patio with paving slabs so that you can make the most of your outdoor space and we can turf your garden too. We’ll also be able to fit you an outdoor tap to make maintaining your new lawn that little bit easier.
If you’ve opted for a home with an attached or integral garage then we can supply power to it, with one light point, one switch and one double weather resistant socket. We can also do the same to detached garages but the price may differ slightly so check in with your Sales Executive on this.
