Harbour Edge being freehold is not subject to ground rent. All the other apartments being leasehold do have to pay ground rent as part of the lease structure, but it is set at a “peppercorn”, which is a traditional legal term for negligible rent.

The draft budget service charge can be found using the link and is calculated by reference to the gross square footage of the property. The service charge is broken down into each set of buildings and then common grounds which include the entrance driveway, woodland and jetty etc. So for example – because the lift only serves the 6 apartments in the Main House – other owners will not be asked to contribute to the costs of maintenance of the lift. Similarly building insurance is broken down into each separate building.

Harbour Edge, being freehold, has a more limited service charge contribution which just relates to upkeep on the common driveway, woodland, jetty etc.

The developer has retained a possible future building plot accessed off Lower Court Road with rights of access to services, the woodland and jetty etc. The developer will pay a contribution to the service charge and also be a member of the Management Company.

Each apartment will have its own dedicated parking and there are two spaces for each apartment except for The Hide where each apartment has one space. Harbour Edge has two parking spaces. There is no additional visitor parking. Parking is free on much of Yealm Road which runs in front of the development.

Yes – each pair of parking spaces (each space for The Hide) will have its own external socket linked to the apartment supply for charging.  As this is straight off the apartment supply, it is an overnight charging facility not a fast charge.  We are looking into providing one common fast charging unit on site.

Yes  – we own the bank directly in front of the site across from Yealm Road and have our own private jetty which is for use of residents only.

All six apartments in the Main House have storage rooms at the Lower Ground Floor / Parking level – some with restricted head height in places as they have arched ceilings.  Harbour Edge also has its own store by the two parking spaces.

Please refer to the website and marketing material for an indicative guide of the interior design style.  All kitchens and bathrooms will be fully fitted with all white goods including washer/drier. Floor finishes are a combination of engineered veneered oak flooring, there will be tiles in the bathrooms and carpets in bedrooms. All apartments will be generously supplied with electrical sockets and lighting as well as 5amp circuits for lamp lighting.  BT/TV/SKY provision is installed throughout with a communal sky aerial.

All our homes all have full fibre broadband, allowing you to get online quickly and easily. We understand that good broadband connection is one of the vital deciding factors for people buying a new home, so we have installed two options for ultrafast full fibre technology. This means fast, flexible, reliable WiFi coverage throughout your living space. Choose from two super-fast options supplied either by BT or Gigaclear, who are both transforming rural communities with full fibre broadband. You will simply need to order your own service connection and Sky box for example.

Yes fitted wardrobes will be provided in almost all bedrooms.

Mains gas, water and electricity with individual metering will be supplied. Also we are making provision for BT High Speed Fibre, Sky and Gigaclear high speed broadband which is currently being laid throughout Newton Ferrers. Foul water drainage is to the mains.

Each property will have its own gas fired boiler.  In the Main House the heating is by way of traditional radiators with under floor electric heating pads in the bathrooms. In Yealm Wood, The Hide and Harbour Edge – all the heating is underfloor.

Yes – we will be installing the heating and limited lighting with capacity to be controlled by a HIVE remote online system.

We are aiming for EPC B for the new build and C for the Main House conversion.

No – due to the nature of the ground conditions and being in an AONB, these were not possible.

Yes – Yealm Wood has sedum roofs, which are not accessible except for maintenance but will look great, especially from the 2nd floor master bedroom of Apartments 3 and 4.

This will be located normally in the hall cupboard with power to fix alongside your router.

We have made real efforts to obtain very high standards of acoustic sound insulation for both airborne and impact sounds. We are aiming for between +5 and +8 over building regulation standards, which is a significant improvement.

Yes – this will be in a store at the front of the Main House.

Each private garden will have an external tap and also electric points and all roof terraces and the balconies on the Main House will have an electric point.

There is CCTV on the Main House as this is the main access point for all properties.

We are using ICW who provide a 10-year warranty and full details will be available in the legal pack.  We do reserve the right to provide as an alternative an architect certificate in compliance with Council of Mortgage Lenders requirements.

Yes – this is part of our commitment with ICW Warranty

A £2,000 reservation fee will be required to secure a property and take it off the market. A full legal pack will be sent to your solicitor and exchange of contracts is expected to take place within 28 days of the receipt of the legal pack. On exchange a 10% deposit is paid. The development is now complete, as of September 2020.

No, the project will be completed at the same time for all properties.
