Why Who You Buy From Matters As Much As What You Buy

When you’re searching for a new home, it’s easy to focus entirely on the property itself — the number of bedrooms, the layout, the garden, the price. All of that matters. But there’s another question that’s worth asking before you commit: who is building this home, and what does it actually feel like to buy from them?

For buyers across Broadgate Homes’ developments, that question has a consistent answer.

What 50 years looks like in practice

Broadgate Homes has been building in Lincolnshire since 1976. Not as a national volume builder processing completions at scale, but as a family business with a genuine stake in the communities it builds in. That longevity isn’t just a heritage story — it’s evidence of something more important. Builders who don’t look after their customers don’t last five decades.

What it means in practice is a team that communicates clearly, supports you through a process that can feel overwhelming, and remains available long after you’ve collected your keys. The kind of aftercare and attentiveness that only comes from a business that treats its reputation as something worth protecting.

What our buyers say

The most honest measure of any housebuilder isn’t their marketing — it’s what their buyers say once they’ve actually moved in.

“I was anxious about buying a new build — but the quality, the finish, and the support from the team completely changed my mind. Six months in, I couldn’t be happier.” — First-time buyer, Broadgate Homes

“Warm, friendly and nothing was too much trouble. The team genuinely helped us make up our minds — and we haven’t looked back.” — Buyer, Broadgate Homes

That anxiety about buying a new build is something we hear often — particularly from first-time buyers. The unfamiliarity of the process, the commitment involved, the worry that the finished home won’t match expectations. It’s a reasonable concern. And it’s one that the right builder, with the right team and the right standards, resolves quickly.

Two developments. Two reasons to move.

Whether you’re looking for a well-connected Lincolnshire market town or a quieter setting with a more intimate feel, there’s currently a Broadgate home worth considering at both of our active developments.

The Errol — a charming red-brick semi-detached home with traditional gabled roofs and characterful white-framed windows, designed for relaxed, modern living at The Furlongs, Holland Park.

The Errol — The Furlongs at Holland Park, Spalding

Bright, balanced and full of thoughtful detail, The Errol is a three-bedroom semi-detached home designed for modern living — with space to gather, space to retreat, and clever features built in from the start. Priced from £249,995, it represents genuine value for a well-specified new build in a well-connected location. A £10,000 buyer incentive is currently available on plots 330 and 331 — making it a particularly compelling moment to act.*

Every home at The Furlongs includes solar panels, battery storage and an EV charging point as standard — not as an optional extra. The average homeowner saves an estimated £1,353 per year on energy costs compared to a typical older UK home.† Running costs matter, and a Broadgate home is built with that in mind.

The Glenfarg — a charming semi-detached home finished in soft buff brick with red-tiled roofs and white-framed windows, featuring a distinctive coach house archway — blending traditional style with modern living at The Furlongs, Holland Park.

The Glenfarg — Gleneagles Drive
