General

Each home will benefit from the installation of an air-source heat pump, making it potentially more cost effective to run while also helping to lower carbon emissions. Each house has its own private rear garden and allocated parking; residents will also have access to communal outside space that will feature a fruit and vegetable garden and a play park.

As the primary landowner, Stonewater will maintain and manage the surrounding public spaces, including protecting and enhancing the green spaces and biodiversity across the area by creating a 'green corridor' which links to nearby cycle paths. A public artwork is also being created for the scheme which reflects the local area and its history and which will become a focal point for the new community.

Shared Ownership

Shared Ownership is a scheme which enables you to buy a share of a property subject to affordability whilst paying a subsidised rent on the remainder. The more of the property you own, the less rent you pay.

Once you have bought your initial share, you may be able to purchase the remainder of the property as and when your circumstances change. This is an optional process known as Staircasing.

All shared ownership properties are leasehold and therefore usually attract a service charge. In the case of houses, the freehold would usually be transferred to you on 100% Staircasing (subject to lease restrictions) The service charge will include buildings insurance as well as a charge for the cleaning and/or maintenance of any communal areas such as car parks, greenspaces and so on. Maintenance of lifts (where installed) as well as communal grounds in the case of flats may also be included. In some cases, an external organisation may be set up to maintain aspects of communal areas therefore customers may be required to make contributions to a Management Company. Lastly, there may be a requirement to contribute towards something called a reserve fund which is designed as a contingency to cover the costs of any large prospective works. For details about any particular development, please contact us.
