Building a sustainable community

SUSTAINABILITY & CARBON REDUCTIONThe homes at Caspian Quarter all reflect

the Sustainability and Carbon Reduction

requirements of the Barking Riverside

development proposals. These include the

following features:

LIFETIME HOMES STANDARDSAdhering to the principle of Lifetime Homes

means that the apartments at Caspian Quarter

will be accessible and adaptable for the lifetime

of the residents. This means that homeowners

will be able to live in their property even if their

circumstances change.

SECURED BY DESIGNThe principles of Secured by Design aim to

reduce crime, creating a safer environment for

residents. Each Caspian Quarter apartment

features windows and doors built to Secured by

Design standards as well as secure parking and

communal areas for the residents.

LANDSCAPING FOR LOCAL SPECIESNative trees and shrub species have been

carefully considered in the development’s

landscaping scheme. Bird and bat boxes are

just two of the features included to encourage

wildlife habitats to develop and to enhance the

area’s ecological value.

LIVING ROOF AND SUSTAINABLE RAINWATER DRAINAGELiving roofs incorporate planting species native

to the Barking area. All of the apartments at

Caspian Quarter have an area of living roof

as part of the landscaping strategy of the

development. In addition, the roofs form part

of a sustainable surface water and rainwater

drainage solution.

HIGH LEVELS OF BUILDING iNSULATIONAll homes have high levels of insulation to reduce

energy consumption.

SUSTAINABLE BUILDING MATERIALSSustainable building materials have been used

and where possible these have been specified

with a recycled content to help reduce the impact

on the environment.

EXCEPTIONAL SOUND INSULATIONSound insulation performance levels between

properties have been designed to exceed

building regulation requirements to improve

residents’ well-being.

CYCLE STORECycle storage is provided for the benefit of the

apartments to encourage the use of cycles,

helping to reduce reliance on cars.

CREATING COMMUNITIES

Caspian Quarter at Barking Riverside is part of

something special. This is a development which

has been created to become a proper community,

rather than just a collection of homes.

Consideration of the environment has been key

to the creation of Barking Riverside, from the eco-

friendly features of the homes themselves to the

installation of a central communal garden in a pretty

courtyard setting.

What’s more, the layout of this new community has

been carefully thought-out to reduce the need for

cars; cycle, pedestrian and public transport routes

all offer easy access to local amenities without

getting behind the wheel.

Along with these environmentally-friendly elements,

residents will also benefit from the work of the

Barking Riverside Community Interest Company

(CIC). The CIC is responsible for the management

and maintenance of public areas, open spaces and

play equipment, as well as street cleaning, waste

management and landscaping. In addition, the

group will encourage residents to speak up about

local issues, making sure their voice is heard where

it matters.

HELP TO BUY LONDON

Buy with just 5% deposit

Help to Buy London is a Government backed equity loan aimed at helping you purchase your new home.

The scheme is open to both first time buyers and existing homeowners on new build properties up to a maximum value of £600,000.

To use the scheme, you will need at least a 5% deposit. You will then be eligible to receive an interest free equity loan from the government of 40% of the value of your new home, which means that you only need to secure a 55% mortgage.

EXPRESS MOVER

To make the whole process of selling and buying easier, Bellway has put together a range of services. Express Mover is the solution if you want to buy a Bellway home but haven’t sold your own house.

The Advantages:// A recommended local agent will be

used to market your present home// You agree the selling price on your present home// The Estate Agent works harder making your present

home a higher priority to sell// Details of your present home will also be marketed in

our sales offices// Bellway will do all the chasing with the Estate Agent to

secure a sale for you// You get a market price for your present home// You can trade ‘up’, ‘down’ or ‘sideways’// Properties outside our region can be registered

on the scheme// Most importantly - it’s free of charge! Bellway pay your

Estate Agent fees// Prospective buyers are properly qualified before being

given an appointment to view your present home

Help to Buy London is subject to eligibility and may not be available on this development. The equity loan must be repaid after 25 years, or earlier if you sell your property and is interest free for the first 5 years. From year 6 a fee of 1.75% is payable on the equity loan, which rises annually by RPI plus 1%.

Unrivalled customer care

For seventy years the name Bellway has been synonymous with quality craftsmanship and quality homes, we are justifiably proud of this reputation and work hard to provide you with a home that meets with your dreams. From the day a customer visits our sales centre to the move-in day we aim to provide a level of service and after-sales care that is second to none.

In recognising the close involvement our customers seek in purchasing their new homes we deliberately gear our sales hand-over process to involve our customers at every possible opportunity. Firstly all our homes are quality checked by our site managers and sales advisors. Customers are then invited to pre-occupation visits; this provides a valuable opportunity for homeowners to understand the various running aspects of their new home.

On the move-in day our site and sales personnel will be there to ensure that the move-in is achieved as smoothly as possible.

Providing customer care and building quality homes is good business sense. However, we are aware that errors do occur and it has always been our intention to minimise inconvenience and resolve any outstanding issues at the earliest opportunity. In managing this process we have after sales teams and a Customer Care centre that is specifically tasked to respond to all customer complaints.

We have a 24 hour emergency helpline and provide a comprehensive information pack that details the working aspects of a new home; a 10 year NHBC warranty provides further peace of mind.

We are confident that our approach to building and selling new homes coupled with our Customer Care programme will provide you with many years of enjoyment in your new home.
