Interest Rate Cut Sparks Confidence in New Homes Market

The Bank of England announced yesterday a base rate cut to 4.25%, bringing a welcome boost to the UK housing market and creating new opportunities for buyers ready to make their move.

At Kendrick Homes, we believe this positive shift will give buyers greater confidence and financial flexibility. A lower interest rate means more affordable monthly mortgage repayments – helping more people take that next step towards a new home.

James Rennison, Managing Director of Kendrick Homes, commented:
“This rate cut is fantastic news. It brings a renewed sense of optimism for buyers and gives people the opportunity to make their move with greater financial confidence. With a range of high-quality homes ready or nearing completion, we’re in a great position to help buyers make the most of this moment.”

At The Green in Owlswick, only two homes remain at this exclusive development of luxury countryside residences. Among them is New Berkeley House, the crown jewel of the site – a five-bedroom, 3,000+ square foot property that exemplifies high-end living, blending modern elegance with timeless design.

At Laureate Ley in Minsterley, just one home now remains – the final three-bedroom Westley house. Nestled in beautiful Shropshire countryside and within easy reach of Shrewsbury, this is the last opportunity to join this peaceful, established community.

In Shurdington, near Cheltenham, our Coopers Chase development is also down to its final home – a stunning three-bedroom property in a sought-after semi-rural location with excellent access to the Cotswolds and beyond.

Our newest development, Crickley Fields in Brockworth, is already proving popular with buyers, with two homes already reserved. Located just off Shurdington Road, this exciting site will officially welcome customers to its new show home towards the end of June.

If you’ve been waiting for the right time to move, this rate change could be the opportunity you’ve been waiting for!
