6–10 weeks
Contract to handover
4–6 months

Priced separately

Underfloor heating, MVHR ventilation, Solar PV + battery, Extended warranty, Aluminium windows, Engineered wood floors, Premium tile floors, Full kitchen (Howdens), Premium bathroom, Stone facade cladding, Extra bedroom / storey, Site services and drainage.
