Jubilee Rise

Development Overview

Jubilee Rise is a new build residential development by Persimmon Homes, located on Tickow Lane in the market town of Shepshed, Leicestershire (LE12 9EY). The scheme comprises 210 new homes, offering a mix of two, three, and four-bedroom properties. Current new build houses for sale are priced in a range starting from approximately £329,995, with four-bedroom detached plots available at prices up to £399,995. The development plan includes a commitment to transferring 20% of the units to an affordable housing provider for rent and shared ownership opportunities.

Property & Specification Details

The house types available at Jubilee Rise primarily consist of semi-detached and detached family homes. Specific four-bedroom house styles include the 'Carradale,' a detached home featuring three bathrooms, and 'The Marston,' a detached property which incorporates a dedicated study space. Other available styles include 'The Rivington' and 'The Barnwood.' A core focus of this development is sustainability, with the inclusion of Persimmon's 'Eco Range' homes. These new build properties feature specific enhancements such as solar panels, EV charging points, enhanced insulation, and improved air-tightness, which the developer states can contribute to a 31% reduction in carbon emissions.

The development site is planned to offer on-site communal benefits, including a large play park, a woodland area, and dedicated sports facilities, such as a basketball court, teqball, and tennis courts.

Developer and Practical Information

Persimmon Homes is a FTSE 100-listed national housebuilder. The company is currently designated with a 5-Star builder status by the Home Builders Federation (HBF), reflecting that over 90% of customers surveyed would recommend the developer to a friend. However, potential buyers should note that the company has historically faced criticism regarding build quality, leading to an independent review in 2019 that highlighted a 'systemic nationwide failure' concerning the installation of fire cavity barriers in some properties; the developer has since committed to increasing independent quality inspectors.

To facilitate the purchase of new build homes at Jubilee Rise, a number of incentive schemes are offered on selected plots, including Part Exchange, Own New Rate Reducer, Deposit Unlock, and a Deposit Boost (5% contribution). Specific availability of house types and incentives is subject to plot status and should be confirmed directly with the developer's sales team.
