What is a semi-detached house?
As the name suggests, a semi-detached home is attached to another by a common wall. Often abbreviated to ‘semi’, the semi-detached home is the most common house type in England and Wales.
Typically, 3 bed houses for sale that are semi-detached are more popular and sell quicker than any other house type. Data from Zoopla reveals that 3-bedroom homes are the quickest to sell in the UK, averaging only 24 days on the market.

Lifestyle Benefits
There are numerous benefits to buying a new home, especially one such as the Gelt. New homes offer the unique opportunity to stamp your personality on your home. Starting with a blank canvas allows you the freedom to be creative and design a home that suits your lifestyle.
Low maintenance
Underrated but particularly poignant in the current climate, purchasing a brand new home that requires little, if any, maintenance is of huge benefit to many homebuyers. When looking at a traditional 3 bed semi-detached house for sale, there will invariably be things you want to change – elements that need fixing, modernising or removing. With a new home, you don’t have any of this, freeing up head space and time for enjoying life in your hassle-free home.
Efficient to run
All our new build homes, not just the Gelt, are energy efficient as standard. Solar panels and EV chargers are built-in, futureproofing for more sustainable energy use. With modern appliances, energy-saving fixtures and fittings and thermally efficient windows, doors and insulation, your new home will be much more economical to run, saving you time and money.
Flexible space
Whether you need all three bedrooms of the Gelt, or not, the flexibility a 3 bed house offers means there’s space for a home office or spare bedroom, games room or dressing room. And with certain plots, a garage is included too, offering future potential for conversion or extra storage, as needs change and evolve.
A better quality of life
A new home offers a fresh start and a better quality of life from the day you move in. With better ventilation, modern insulation, safety features and adaptable accessibility, day-to-day life just feels easier. What’s more, the ability to put your own personality on your new home and live somewhere with like-minded homeowners, means you’re creating more than a home – you’re building a community. The health and mental wellbeing benefits of this sense of belonging help you feel relaxed and supported from day one.
