Practical Information

Persimmon Homes has achieved a 5-star builder rating from the Home Builders Federation, signifying that over nine out of ten customers would recommend the company. However, prospective buyers are advised to conduct their own due diligence, as independent reviews highlight varying experiences regarding build quality, 'snagging' resolution, and post-sale customer care. The development offers a range of financial incentives and schemes, including Shared Ownership and New Build Boost. Current completion status and plot availability are dynamic; to arrange a viewing or obtain the full price list, tenure details (some properties are leasehold), and council tax band information (to be confirmed post-occupation), direct contact with the Trevethan Meadows sales team is required.
