The cash you need, the monthly cost, schools and journeys, answered for this home on this page.
Tell me what you are after: a place, a budget, the bedrooms, the type of home, and what matters most. Then refine it in your own words.
Answers come from the listings and the calculators; illustrations are not advice.
Against the 8 other homes for sale at Rose Meadows.
The builder has not published any service charge, estate charge or ground rent for this home: ask the sales office before you reserve.
An illustration, not advice: stamp duty at the rates in force today (GOV.UK), the monthly payment at the Bank of England's average quoted rate for 2-year fixes at 90% LTV, October 2026, the latest it has published.
With a 10% deposit (£78,000) you would borrow £702,000, a 90% loan to value. 9 lenders publish 25 two-year fixed deals at that loan to value. Here are 5 of the 25, sorted by monthly payment.

Expected completion: Move in 2027, as Taylor Wimpey states it. That is later than a mortgage offer usually lasts (about 6 months), so buyers usually apply nearer the time; some lenders give new homes longer. Plan reservation to the keys for this home
Sorted by the figure you choose, and nothing else: not a recommendation. Each payment is a repayment mortgage over 30 years at the rate the lender publishes for this loan to value; after the deal, at the lender's variable rate today, which can change. The cost over the deal is its payments and the lender's stated fees, less any cashback, and the APRC is worked out the way the FCA sets for lenders. NewHomeSearch is not authorised by the FCA, does not give mortgage advice or arrange mortgages, and receives nothing from lenders. A mortgage is secured on your home. Lenders decide who they lend to and may lend less on some new homes, flats in particular: check every figure with the lender.
