There are not many housing developers that will let you remove internal walls as they help you to design your dream home – but Claymore Homes give you full control of the floor plan, and much more.

Currently building its Nethermill Heights development in the North East’s Cruden Bay, just eight miles outside Peterhead, the developer is going further than most to help attract a wide range of homebuyers, of all ages. In total, around 150 homes with three, four, five and six bedrooms will be built off Golf Road, on the Newburgh side of Cruden Bay.

So far, 23 new homes have been released in its first phase and 50% of them have already been reserved. View the slideshow below to discover more:

Homebuyers are impressed with the range of options available to them, not only in terms of property sizes but in choosing internal designs and layouts.

Nethermill Heights is aimed at everyone, as there is no ‘typical buyer here. That’s because prices start under £200,000 for a three-bed semi-detached which will appeal to first-time buyers and those taking advantage of the Help to Buy scheme. There is also a mix of three and four bedroom bungalows, which are proving popular amongst those who are retired, downsizers or growing families wanting rooms on one level. These beautiful single storey homes are also idea for those with mobility or health issues.

Then there is the top end properties, like the awe-inspiring Ythan, a stunning six-bedroom detached home or the attractive five-bedroomed Orkney, Meldrum or Haddo.

As well as the exterior, there are decisions to be made about the interior of your Cruden Bay home too.

Most developers offer choices when it comes to bathroom/kitchen tiles and flooring, and Claymore Homes does too, but the developer is also able to modify the internal layout by moving internal walls and adding in doors and windows to open up its spacious homes even further, depending on the buyer’s wishes.

The developer can provide minor changes right through to the redesign of internal layouts, thanks to its FREE design service.

This is unusual but, as buyers are purchasing ‘off plan’, this flexibility is something Claymore Homes is keen to offer as an additional incentive so buyers can build a home to suit their lifestyle. Covid-19 restrictions have meant that it may not be as easy to sit down with the design team, so discussions of layout changes and internal alterations take place via telephone calls and email exchanges, often with the buyers sketching their personal preferences on to the planning drawings.

Although the building project at Cruden Bay has only recently started – and the showhome won’t open until the end of October – it is still possible to reserve your property today, tailor it to suit your needs with the design team, and collect your keys for summer 2021.

This faster-the-normal as early as a nine-month turnaround, which also allows for planning consent, is something the developer is particularly proud of.
