Homes that are not only strong in build, but in character too.

Story homes challenge the conventions of the mass-produced, standing apart from the crowd. Our homes are set a little further back from the road, and with more space between them. The finish of each one is different, so that you are not living in the same house as your neighbour. And the best combinations of bricks and stone are used, with considered design features at every turn.

With a brand new Story home, you will find there are no compromises on quality, no corners cut – just solid, beautiful homes.

SOLIDLY-BUILT WITH QUALITY MATERIALS.

Premium specification. Added strength and character.

DESIGNED FOR LIFE.

Unique modern features. Effortlessly flowing spaces.

FAMILY-RUN COMPANY FOR OVER 30 YEARS.

Pride in our homes. Pride in our workforce.

WE’LL GIVE YOU MORE SPACE INSIDE & OUT.Well-proportioned living areas.

Set back off the road.

Your everyday needs are catered for in the village, with shops, a post office, pubs and schools, including St. Wilfrid’s C of E Primary School. There is also a vibrant and welcoming community centre at the heart of Halton, popular with all age groups. Plus, with stunning scenery on offer close to home, you can easily enjoy the area’s natural beauty, as well as woodland and riverside walks, whenever you want.

If you enjoy history, you don’t have to go far to discover more about Halton’s past. Evidence of an 11th century Norman motte as well as many 17th and 18th century buildings are present in the village.

Halton Grange is perfectly located, offering easy access to Lancaster and the M6, opening up the north west with Preston and Manchester being reached in 30 and 60 minutes respectively. And if you want to travel further, the West Coast Mainline from Lancaster provides regular train services to Glasgow and London.

All journey times are approximate.

Of course, every home is unique. But with a new Story home, you’ll discover some elements are shared. Like open-plan living areas that radiate light and space. Well-designed kitchens that deliver practicality and durability. Beautifully designed bathrooms and en-suites that take centre stage. And there’s also bi-fold and French doors that come as standard, helping to create a seamless link between your home and garden.

What’s more, when you buy a new Story home, you have the opportunity to personalise your home even further with our choices and extras which can be incorporated seamlessly into your new home.

But it’s not only our premium specification that’s well considered. Our homes are built with sustainability in mind, with the aim of helping the environment and saving you money.

A new build is more economical to run than an older property. It uses less energy and produces significantly lower CO2 emissions, meaning lower running costs, and a saving of up to £1,410 pa on a 4-bedroom detached new build property.* Energy saving features could include:

• High levels of thermal efficiency• ‘A’ rated kitchen appliances (majority of appliances)• Dual flush toilets• 100% energy efficient lighting

Each home at Halton Grange is built with thermally-efficient building materials, and has a smart meter installed, so you can monitor your energy consumption. This, along with water-saving appliances and an airtight design, will give you all the benefits of a new build home.

Markers indicate standard specification. The specification relates to the majority of plots and appliances and is dependent on housetype design. Please note that the interior design, fittings and furnishings that make up our show homes are not part of our standard specification. Story Homes reserve the right to amend the specification. Please check individual plot specification and build stage with Sales Executive, or see our specification guide.

*A 4-bed detached Victorian house with some modern improvements has average yearly energy costs of £2,460. Whereas, the equivalent new build home that has been built to 2013 Building Regulations could have average yearly energy costs of £1,050, saving £1,410 per annum. SOURCE: new-homes.co.uk.

As a family-owned business, our mission is to design and build quality homes that people aspire to live in. Homes designed for life, that are strong in both build and character.

This strength and character is evident in our unique brand story, from our founder Fred Story to our rich, 30-year history of ‘doing the right thing’ – with integrity, honesty and respect for one another.

We take pride in everything we do, from how we craft and build our homes to our expert workforce. And we treat people how we would want to be treated – our staff, our craftsmen, our charities, our suppliers. And, of course, our customers.

Our exceptional quality and attention to detail runs through everything we do. And it is this that has given us our enviable reputation.

Customer satisfaction has always been one of our key strengths, and we regularly receive superb feedback from our customers which we use to help us make continuous improvements to our homes and our after-sales service.

TAKING CARE OF YOU

Our reputation is firmly built on the quality of our exceptional homes and our high standards of customer service. Before you move in, you’ll be given a comprehensive ‘Home Information File’ that explains everything about your new home and what you can expect from our Customer Aftercare team.

You will also receive a home demonstration from your Site Manager, who will answer any questions you might have about your new Story home. Your Site Manager and your Sales Executive will become your main points of contact in the first few weeks of owning your brand new home.

GOING THE EXTRA MILE

We pride ourselves on providing a friendly, easily accessible, knowledgeable and efficient service for our customers. And as well as care and support from our Sales team during your purchase, our local and dedicated team of advisors and technicians will also be here to take care of you after you have moved in.

Your Site Manager will contact you in the days following completion, and then again during the first few weeks you are in your home. This is to ensure everything is as you would expect your new Story home to be.

Our Customer Aftercare team will call you directly to introduce themselves. We provide dedicated and responsive aftercare for two years after buying your Story home, in addition to your 10-year build warranty, so you can rest assured you are in safe, professional hands with us.

The Consumer Code for Home Builders was developed by the home-building industry and introduced in April 2010 to make the home buying process fairer and more transparent for purchasers. Find out more at www.consumercodeforhomebuilders.co.uk
