19 January 2012 - GET A MOVE ON WITH JONES HOMES IN 2012!

Before making the big decision to move in 2012, prospective North West homebuyers should first take a close look at Jones Homes’ best-ever choice of brand new properties.
Jones Homes has enjoyed more than 50 years of building success and over this time it has maintained long and happy relationships with dozens of towns and thousands of homeowners throughout the region. Its current developments, underway in Cheshire, Derbyshire, Greater Manchester and Merseyside look set to continue this trend in 2012.
Jones Homes has a proud reputation for building homes of character and individuality in desirable locations and its current sites in Alderley Edge, Bolton, Cheadle Hulme, Glossop, Horwich, Macclesfield, Middlebrook, Middlewich, Moston, Newton-le-Willows, Widnes, Wilmslow and Wythenshawe are no exception. With year on year visitor levels up 21% and new sites opening in 2012, it promises to be another busy year for the award winning builder.
Depending on the location these developments, between them, provide a choice of luxury apartments for those seeking a contemporary lifestyle, mews-style homes for the first time buyer, versatile townhouses and spacious detached homes for the growing family. As Area Sales Manager, Hilary Dean says: “We recommend a good look round our show homes before deciding where to purchase. People are always impressed by the attention to detail which makes all the difference in a Jones show home.”
Despite the continuing challenges facing the industry, 2012 could be the ideal time to make a move – stable, realistic prices may help customer confidence and as it returns, the award-winning builder’s traditional values of providing quality homes in good locations backed by high standards of customer service will further re-assure prospective new home buyers.
In addition Jones Homes has two successful on-going initiatives to help home seekers make that move. FirstBuy is a popular way for first time buyers to get a foothold on the property ladder. Available on selected plots at several Jones Homes’ developments in the north-west, the Government-backed scheme enables those who meet certain conditions to purchase a new Jones home for up to 80% of the full market price.
The other initiative is Easymove, whereby Jones Homes gives a helping hand to those considering a new Jones home but are held back because they still have their own house to sell. Easymove gives existing homeowners the chance to reserve a Jones’ home and at the same time they receive practical help from Jones Homes to give them a better chance of selling their existing property.
Although Jones Homes has been creating homes with considerable appeal for many years it also makes a significant contribution to the overall appearance of the neighbourhoods in which we live. Wherever possible mature trees are retained and neighbourhoods enhanced through the creation of careful landscaping schemes. As a result the Company is a past winner of ‘Gold’ in the British Housebuilder Awards and over the years has won nine Green Leaf Awards for its care and consideration of the environment.
The hallmark of a Jones home is luxury accommodation with high standards of construction, design and specification. During the recent wintry weather Jones homeowners have enjoyed a host of modern energy efficient features including double glazed lockable PVCu windows, gas central heating and superior levels of insulation.
Most showhomes and sales centres open from 10.00am to 5.00pm during the week and from 11.00am to 5.00pm at weekends. For those unable to call in, visit www.jones-homes.co.uk or ring Caroline Francis on 01625-588300 for more information.
23 November 2011 - FIRST TIME BUYERS TURN TO JONES HOMES

Choosing a brand new home is the biggest financial decision most people make, but for first time buyers the task can be even more daunting.
However it seems that would-be home owners in the north-west are turning to Jones Homes in ever increasing numbers for help and advice as they search for their first starter home.
The six month period from May 2011 to October 2011 has seen the number of first time buyers visiting Jones Homes’ developments soar by 46% over the corresponding period of 2010. And with mews style homes available in Moston, Woodhouse Park, Bolton, Horwich and Newton-le-Willows sites, first time buyers have a great choice of homes.
And now could well be the ideal time for first time buyers because the award winning builder has two on-going initiatives designed to help people make that move to a brand new Jones home.
The Government backed FirstBuy scheme was launched to encourage aspiring first time buyers to come forward and take that first step on the property ladder. It is specifically designed to help those struggling to buy their first home due to the need for high deposits.
Jones Homes’ FirstBuy properties are available at only three of its sites and a strictly limited number of plots are allocated to each development, so would-be homeowners are being urged to act NOW to secure their dream home.
With FirstBuy, Jones Homes and the Government together will offer a 20% equity loan, which, alongside a 5% deposit from the buyer, will enable those who qualify to take out a 75% mortgage on the rest of the property. For example, the successful buyer of a house worth £123,950 at Newlands Grange, Newton-le-Willows, would pay just £99,160 and have to find a deposit of only £6,197 to secure a new home! The other two sites in the scheme are Elmwood, Woodhouse Park, and Broadhurst Manor, Moston.
The second, a shared equity scheme at Chorley Place, Horwich and The Meadows, Middlebrook, which is available on selected plots only, enables would-be purchasers to buy a property for just 80% of the full purchase price! Subject to terms and conditions, participation in the scheme is simple and straightforward – purchasers do not have to pay interest on the remaining 20% and no loan is attached to the 20%. Those buying into the scheme own 100% of the property but pay back nothing of the 20% until the house is sold at any time in the future.
It means that a 2-bedroom Marton house style, with a full purchase price of £135,000, would be available at just £108,000! What’s more eligible buyers would only have to find a deposit of £6,750 to secure this property.
Most show homes and sales centres open from 10.00am to 5.00pm during the week and from 11.00am to 5.00pm at weekends. For those unable to call in, visit www.jones-homes.co.uk or ring 01625-588300 for more information.
23 November 2011 - ANDREW AND JENNY DISCOVER MIDDLEWICH’S BEST KEPT SECRET!

Many people write letters of complaint if they’ve had a bad experience buying a particular product or service. Few though take the trouble to write in when things go well.
Young couple Andrew Wheeler and Jenny Timmins, however, were so delighted with their new home at The Kingfishers, off Finneys Lane, Middlewich that they wrote in to Jones Homes with glowing reports about their home buying experience.
Andrew takes up the story: “We moved in three months ago and we’ve been absolutely delighted with our home and how Jones Homes have looked after us.
“We were both property owners so Jenny and I decided to pool our resources and buy a brand new home together – we’re getting married next year and our 4 bedroom detached Wellington is just what we wanted.
“We’d looked at homes on a few other developments, but nothing came close to The Kingfishers. The rooms are really spacious and the quality of finish is first class. We’re also situated in a lovely tranquil spot, which is close to the canal.
“Both Val, our sales negotiator, and Carl, the site manager, went out of their way to provide us with all the help and advice we needed. Nothing was too much trouble, and any questions or problems we had were dealt with quickly and efficiently. Customer Services were always helpful and the new negotiator Jackie still pops by to see if we’re OK.
“We’re very happy here and hope to stay for many years to come,” Andrew concludes.
There’s no doubt that Andrew and Jenny have discovered something special at The Kingfishers, as the availability of brand new family homes in semi-rural mid-Cheshire is limited. Currently Jones Homes is the only builder in the Middlewich area to provide a choice of both 4-bedroom townhouses and 4-bedroom detached homes.
Two show homes are available to view and the 3-storey townhouses, which overlook the Trent & Mersey Canal provide open views across to Harbutt’s Field, once the site of a Roman fort.
A tour of the fully-furnished Daresbury detached show home is highly recommended as it demonstrates to those seeking a luxury lifestyle how professional interior designers use inspirational colour schemes, fittings and furnishings to create a stylish and comfortable living environment.
The Richmond show home is traditional family townhouse but with contemporary appeal and style. This versatile 4-bedroom property with integrated garage offers split-level accommodation over three levels.
The Kingfishers really does offer its residents the best of both worlds – just minutes away from the amenities of a busy, historic town centre, it also provides easy access to the nearby countryside.
For those with a house to sell Jones Homes’ Easymove scheme is giving a helping hand to those considering a new Jones home but are being held back because they still have their own house to sell. Easymove gives existing homeowners the chance to reserve a Jones’ home and at the same time they receive practical help from Jones Homes to give them a better chance of selling their existing property.
Ever since the early 1990s when its first Middlewich development opened,
Jones Homes has maintained a long and happy association with the town and its people. Over the years it has successfully completed several schemes across the Borough - The Orchards and Meadow View were later followed by Abbey Gardens in 1996.
The show homes open from 10.00am to 5.00pm during the week and from 11.00am to 5.00pm at weekends. For those unable to call in, ring 01625-588300 or visit www.jones-homes.co.uk for more information.
11 November 2011 - VISITORS FLOCK TO VIEW NEW SHOW HOME IN WIDNES

A pre-view event held by Jones Homes at the weekend for prospective home buyers at Heathlands, off Norlands Lane, Widnes, has attracted more than 50 visitors!
Jones Homes’ sales negotiators were kept busy over the two days as people queued to see the star attraction, the stunning new 4-bedroom detached ‘Bedworth’ show home.
For those searching for a top quality family home, a visit to this beautifully-furnished show home is highly recommended as it demonstrates what’s best about buying new. It shows visitors how Jones Homes’ professional interior designers use inspirational colour schemes, fittings and furnishings to create a stylish and comfortable living environment.
Visitors to Jones’ show homes are always impressed by Jones Homes’ fully furnished show homes. According to Sales Manager Anna Halliwell: “Buying a new home is the biggest financial commitment most people make, so we strongly advise home seekers to have a good look round our show homes before making the big decision. Our interiors are really special and visitors are always impressed by the attention to detail which makes all the difference in a Jones home.”
Set in an idyllic, semi-rural location Heathlands offers a choice of spacious 4- and 5-bedroom detached family homes. The development, surrounded by countryside, is just 2½ miles from the town centre and directly to the south, across the River Mersey lies Runcorn, the other major town within the Borough of Halton.
Jones Homes, one of the north-west’s leading private house builders, is bringing a wealth of experience gained from over 50 years’ of success, to the Widnes area. It is the founding member of The Emerson Group, one of the Britain’s leading family-owned residential and commercial property developers.
Prospective homebuyers can look forward to something really special – in the recent LABC North West Building Excellence Awards, The Kingfishers in Middlewich, was named as the best site in its category. These awards celebrate the very best in construction and acknowledge the high levels of skill and professionalism within the building industry.
With stable realistic prices now could be the ideal time to buy and Jones Homes has an on-going initiative designed to help people make that move to a brand new home. Easymove gives existing homeowners the chance to reserve a Jones’ home and at the same time receive practical help from Jones Homes to give them a better chance of selling their existing property.
The show home is open daily, except Tuesday and Wednesday, from 10.00am to 5.00pm weekdays and 11.00am to 5.00pm at the weekend. For those unable to call in, more information is available from Caroline Francis on 01625-588300 or visit www.jones-homes.co.uk.
2 November 2011 - 18% SURGE IN VISITORS TO JONES’ SHOW HOMES

The six month period from May 2011 to October 2011 has seen the number of visitors to Jones Homes’ developments in the north-west leap by 18% over the corresponding period of 2010.
For award winning Jones Homes, currently building new homes in Cheshire, Greater Manchester, Derbyshire and Merseyside, the increase in visitors is perhaps an indication that the housing market is continuing to show signs of a gradual recovery.
According to Sales & Marketing Director, Denise Caldwell, Jones Homes is in good shape to meet the continuing challenges facing the industry. She says: “This significant year on year increase in visitor numbers to our sites is most encouraging. Despite difficult times for the industry we’ve been consistent in our commitment to provide top quality homes backed by high standards of customer service. With over 50 years building success these traditional qualities have served our homebuyers well ever since 1959.”
And now could well be the ideal time to buy because the award winning builder has two on-going initiatives in the region designed to help people make that move to a brand new Jones home.
The first initiative is Easymove, whereby Jones Homes gives a helping hand to those considering a new Jones home but are being held back because they still have their own house to sell. Easymove gives existing homeowners the chance to reserve a Jones’ home and at the same time receive practical help from Jones Homes to give them a better chance of selling their existing property.
The second is the Government backed FirstBuy scheme, launched to encourage aspiring first time buyers to come forward and take that first step on the property ladder. It is specifically designed to help those struggling to buy their first home due to the need for high deposits.
Jones Homes’ FirstBuy properties are available at only three of its sites and a strictly limited number of plots are allocated to each development, so would-be homeowners are being urged to act NOW to secure their dream home.
With FirstBuy, Jones Homes and the Government together will offer a 20% equity loan, which, alongside a 5% deposit from the buyer, will enable those who qualify to take out a 75% mortgage on the rest of the property. It means, for example, that the successful buyer of a house worth £123,750 at Broadhurst Manor, Moston, would pay just £99,000 and have to find a deposit of only £6,187 to secure a new home! The other two sites in the scheme are Elmwood, Woodhouse Park, and Newlands Grange, Newton-le-Willows.
Prospective home buyers seeking something special can take full advantage of Jones Homes’ best ever choice of new properties situated in some of the finest locations in Cheshire, Greater Manchester, Derbyshire and Merseyside. Between them these developments provide a choice of modern 2-bedroom apartments, 2- and 3-bedroom mews-style starter homes, versatile 3-storey townhouses and spacious 4-bedroom detached family homes.
Buying a new home is the biggest financial decision most people make, so potential purchasers are being advised to have a good look round Jones’ show homes before making the big decision. With the recent mild weather home seekers have been out in force visiting Jones’ fully-furnished show homes around the region. Home seekers have the ideal opportunity to see how Jones’ professional interior designers use inspirational colour schemes, fittings and furnishings to create a stylish and comfortable living environment.
Current sites are located in Alderley Edge, Bolton, Cheadle Hulme, Glossop, Horwich, Macclesfield, Middlebrook (near Bolton), Middlewich, Moston, Newton-le-Willows, Wilmslow, Widnes and Woodhouse Park. Most show homes and sales centres open from 10.00am to 5.00pm during the week and from 11.00am to 5.00pm at weekends.

19 January 2012 - STUNNING ‘HOME OF THE MONTH’ ON OFFER AT KINGSBOROUGH MANOR, ISLE OF SHEPPEY.
Jones Homes’ Kingsborough Manor has earned an excellent reputation as an aspirational address on the Isle of Sheppey. All the beautifully designed executive-style four and five-bedroom homes feature a high standard specification and provide ample parking and garaging – as a result the Jones Homes’ sales team has had a difficult task selecting the latest ‘Home of The Month.’
The house that has been chosen this month is plot 211, The Holborn Regent - partly because of its cul-de-sac location and partly because of its appealing interior layout. Currently under construction, this attractive new home provides an abundance of living space including a dual aspect lounge, a separate dining room and a superb kitchen/family room with French doors which open onto the rear garden. There’s also a cloakroom in the hall and a utility room which leads to the double garage. On the upper floor is a master bedroom with en-suite, three further bedrooms and a family bathroom.
“One of the benefits of the homes at Kingsborough Manor is that the buyers who want a brand new home don’t have to compromise on space,” says Sara Stanhope, Sales & Marketing Director for Jones Homes Southern. “These new homes offer all the benefits of new build including low maintenance, energy-efficiency and all the latest fixtures and fittings but they also offer the space, inside and out, that is more often associated with older properties. These new homes have generously-proportioned rooms which are light and airy – and they have good-sized gardens, garaging and ample parking. Anyone who views the ‘Home of the Month’ will be able to appreciate the space – and the style.”
For further information on Kingsborough Manor or the ‘Home of the Month’ which, priced at £395,000, offers excellent value for money, please call the sales team on 01795 881084.

19 January 2012 - SALES SUCCESS MEANS THE LAST CHANCE TO BUY AT CHATSWORTH STRAND IN SOVEREIGN HARBOUR!
Jones Homes Southern’s Sales Consultant, Seraina Raleigh, is delighted with the sales success of Chatsworth Strand in Eastbourne’s Sovereign Harbour where only one apartment remains available.
For Seraina, who now works at Jones Homes’ Mayfield Heights development in St Leonards-on-Sea, the pleasure is tinged with sadness as she leaves Chatsworth Strand: she loves the stylish, beachfront apartments and likes Sovereign Harbour so much that she moved there herself!
“We moved to Sovereign Harbour from Purley, near Croydon about two years ago and absolutely love it!” comments Seraina. “It’s clean, peaceful, safe and quiet – even though there are lots of activities just a short walk away. This is a traffic free zone and there’s a different pace of life – people seem much more relaxed here!”
“Everyone makes the most of the marina and the waterfront with its cosmopolitan atmosphere,” adds Seraina. “Whatever the weather, there’s something special about living here. In summer, the blue skies, the sea and the beach are fabulous but even on damp and misty day, there’s a certain magic. On New Year’s Eve, the residents put on the most amazing fireworks display and everyone stands on their balcony and sings Auld Lang Syne with champagne in hand!”
“Chatsworth Strand has been a very popular development with people from all over the country; some of our buyers live here full time, others come down for weekends and holidays and some have bought to rent,” comments Sara Stanhope, Sales and Marketing Director for Jones Homes Southern. “Visitors can’t believe the quality of the apartments and the outstanding sea views –the usual comment is that there’s very little comparison between what’s on offer here and elsewhere in the property market!”
For further information on the remaining apartment at Chatsworth Strand – a two-bedroom first floor apartment which comes complete with flooring, a range of integrated kitchen appliances and a premium furnishing package for just £245,000 – please contact Seraina at Mayfield Heights on 01424-851541, Thursday to Monday inclusive from 10 am to 5.30 pm. Details on all Jones Homes’ developments are available on the website at www.jones-homes.co.uk.

21 February 2011 - PURCHASERS SAY PRIORY GATE ‘HAS IT ALL’
Jones Homes are proud to report excellent visitor levels and sales at its fantastic development of Priory Gate in Aughton near Ormskirk & its recommend a friend scheme is proving to be very popular with some of its purchasers.
This prestigious development of 2 and 3 bedroom apartments is set in the much sought after and picturesque village of Aughton near Ormskirk.
All of the spacious apartments are finished to the highest quality. The contemporary feel of the fitted kitchens and beautifully finished bathrooms make these homes, homes to be proud of. Breathtaking views across the countryside & the development’s rural location feels a million miles away from the hustle & bustle of Liverpool or Manchester but with the local train station a mere 5 minute walk from the development and with excellent links to the motorway Priory Gate has it all.
Two of its residents made their move to Priory Gate in December 2009, they saw the development progress with interest and decided releasing some equity from their own 4 bedroom detached home was an excellent idea and have not looked back since.
The development’s location allowed them to stay in the much sought after area of Aughton where they have lived for over 40 years, they are also still near to their grown up children and grandchildren. Moving to this development allowed them to downsize, which had not really been possible in the area before the Priory Gate development was built.
They said ‘the benefits of living in a maintenance free environment, where the gardens are all cared for, everything is brand new and there are endless views over the countryside was a fantastic opportunity and appealed to us greatly’.
Their old neighbours and lifelong friends visited them in their new home and were overwhelmed by everything that Priory Gate had to offer. Large spacious rooms, excellent fixtures and fittings, brand new appliances and bathrooms and a lovely peaceful lifestyle in a much sought after area. They couldn’t wish for more.
They where so pleased that they decided to ‘test the water’ and put their own property on the market, within days it had sold & they had to move fast. Demand has been high at this lovely development but the Sales Negotiator managed to secure them their dream home. They reserved and completed on their own property at Priory Gate in no time at all.
Leaving behind 40 years of memories and downsizing was a big decision for both couples but the benefits of Priory Gate far outweighed any negative points and the two couples love their new lives at Priory Gate and continue to recommend their friends!
Jones Homes have commenced work on the second phase of this development with several reservations having been taken already and with brand new prices just released a buzz of activity is sure to follow.
Jones Homes recommends that you visit the sales negotiator on site who will be pleased to show you around the show apartment and discuss the plans for the next phase.
Open to visitors 7 days a week from 11am to 5:30pm or telephone Priory Gate 01695 581358 for more information.
29 November 2010 - INTEREST HIGH IN NEW BLACKPOOL DEVELOPMENT
A brand new development from Jones Homes Fylde is causing a stir amongst prospective home buyers in Blackpool.
Set in a prime location on Common Edge Road, The Orchards provides easy access to the M55 motorway and Blackpool town centre with Lytham St. Anne’s and Preston just a short drive away. Building work is well underway and when complete the development will comprise twenty-seven 2-, 3- and 4-bedroom homes.
Ever since the sales cabin opened the award winning builder has been delighted with the level of interest being shown. According to a spokesman from Jones Homes Fylde, “Visitors have been buzzing around the site over the past couple of months and the feedback from potential buyers has been excellent – in fact some eager purchasers have already made reservations!”
Also proving popular is a new initiative called Jones HomeBuy and a reservation was taken using this scheme during The Orchards’ launch weekend. Subject to terms and conditions, and available on selected plots for a limited period only, Jones HomeBuy enables would-be home owners to buy a new Jones home right now for as little as 85% of the full purchase price – Jones Homes provides an equity loan for the remaining 15%, interest free for the first 5 years, and buyers have up to 10 years to repay the equity loan.
Regional Director of Jones Homes Fylde, Mark Chadwick, is backing the scheme to be every bit as successful as the Government backed HomeBuy Direct, which ended in September. He says: “HomeBuy Direct was immensely popular and although this has now finished we’re confident that our new Jones HomeBuy scheme will continue to help prospective purchasers get a foothold on the property ladder.”
