A 6 minute read by Tom Bloxham

Welcome to our March edition of Newsplash - a monthly round-up of all things Urban Splash, featuring new homes, scheme launches, commercial news and much more.

This month we've got an update on all the new homes we have for sales this Spring. With the news that the Stamp Duty holiday has been extended on homes in England, that means buyers completing before the end of June can save up to £15,000 on home at New Islington and Avro in Manchester and Port Loop in Birmingham. There's also news of more of our modular Town House and Row House homes at Inholm, Northstowe in Cambridge and East Float at Wirral Waters in Merseyside. Finally, we've got updates on our artist initiatives at Port Loop and Park Hill. Read on for more.

Our new homes at Avro are almost complete and we’ll soon be sharing the first images from inside. Just four homes remain on sale and they’ll be ready to move into ahead of the Stamp Duty deadline.

Prices from £450,000.

We’ve got more homes coming soon

Though they wont complete for the Stamp Duty deadline, we’ve got more of our award-winning homes coming to neighbourhoods like Inholm Northstowe in Cambridgesghire, where our first Town House homes are now on sale, as well as at East Float, Wirral Waters in Merseyside. There, we’ll not only be selling our three storey Town House homes, but also our brand new, Row House homes.
