New build or old build? Why new wins every time

Let's be honest - when you're house hunting in Lincolnshire, there's something romantic about those period cottages with their wonky beams and original features. 

But after years in the building game, the team at Horgan Homes can tell you why their new homes at St Helen's Place in Mareham Le Fen offer something those older properties just can't match.

Your energy bills won't give you nightmares

Those charming period properties? They're often money pits when it comes to heating. The homes at St Helen's Place come with air source heat pumps and PV panels as standard. 

That means you're not throwing money at sky-high energy bills every winter or facing the massive cost of retrofitting a 200-year-old cottage.

What you see is what you get

The horror stories about buyers who've fallen in love with a period property, only to discover dodgy electrics, dodgy plumbing or structural problems after they've signed on the dotted line are endless. 

At St Helen's Place, everything is brand new, built by the local Lincolnshire workforce and comes with proper warranties. 

No nasty surprises lurking behind the walls.

Built for how we actually live

Here's the thing - there's a real shortage of quality bungalows in Lincolnshire. People want single-storey living, but they don't want to compromise on style or space. 

The two, three and four-bed bungalows and dormer bungalows at St Helen's Place are designed around real life. 

As managing director Sophie Horgan puts it: "A home should feel intuitive - you shouldn't have to think about where to put your coat or how the light falls in the kitchen."

Quality you can see and feel

Horgan Homes was named best small housebuilder in the UK at the 2023 WhatHouse? Awards, and you'll see why when you visit St Helen's Place. 

From the Samsung integrated appliances to the luxury Minoli tiling, they don't cut corners. It's about creating homes that people can grow into, grow old in and feel proud of.

No project management required

While your friends are living in dust sheets for months trying to renovate their period cottage, you could be unpacking in your new Horgan home. 

Keys in hand, everything working perfectly and your new life in Mareham Le Fen ready to begin.
