Why you should buy a Vivly Living home in 2025

Make 2025 your year

A new year brings new opportunities and the chance to take a step towards the life you dream of. For many, owning a new home is at the top of that list; a space to call your own that also improves your lifestyle and meets the needs of your everyday life.

At Vivly Living, we believe a home is more than bricks and mortar. It’s where memories are made and futures are built. That’s why we don’t just build houses; we create communities that inspire connection and offer comfort. When buying a Vivly Living home, you’re choosing a lifestyle centred around quality, community and care.

Beautiful surroundings

We only build homes in beautiful locations with stunning views. Our developments are surrounded by the gorgeous Yorkshire countryside, situated in beautiful, vibrant villages with all the amenities you could wish for and a fantastic sense of community. Designed to complement their surroundings, our homes blend perfectly into the landscape, enhancing both the environment and your lifestyle.

Convenience and community at your fingertips

Vivly Living is not just a property developer, or even a housing developer. Vivly Living creates communities that are built for longevity. Our developments are located in charming and welcoming areas. If you’re making the move from the big city to the countryside for the first time – you won’t regret moving to Denby Dale, Shepley or Skelmanthorpe! Each village hosts an array of fantastic local businesses, from boutiques to cafes.

Fantastic aftercare

At Vivly Living, we know that buying a home is just the beginning of an exciting journey. From the moment you get your keys, our dedicated aftercare team is here to support you and ensure that your home is everything you dreamed it would be. Within the first 28 days, we prioritise urgent queries and schedule resolutions efficiently to minimise disruption. After this, we offer ongoing support for two years to provide you with peace of mind every step of the way. From a home demo before move-in to an out-of-hours emergency team, our aftercare is well-considered. With Vivly Living, we take care of the details so you can focus on what really matters; enjoying your wonderful new home and the life that comes with it.

Designed for every stage of life

Whatever stage of life you’re at, we have a home that’s just right for you. Across two available developments, we offer a variety of 2-to-5-bed homes that suit many different lifestyles.

For downsizers, our thoughtfully designed homes offer a fresh start – less maintenance, more freedom and the chance to prioritise what really matters in life. Our beautifully designed homes, set in stunning Yorkshire villages, provide the perfect space to enjoy life with the comfort and convenience you deserve.

For growing families, our homes are built with space and practicality in mind. Open-plan kitchen/diners create a hub for family time, while well-proportioned bedrooms provide individual space and privacy. The safe and welcoming villages of Shepley, Denby Dale and Skelmanthorpe are all great places to raise families, while nearby schools and parks make everyday life easier.

For young professionals, Vivly Living homes offer modern living and functionality; perfect for those that work from home. Many of our properties have dedicated study rooms or bedrooms that could be transformed into a home office to suit your needs. Our developments are also conveniently located with excellent transport links, making commuting to the office almost as effortless as working from home!

First-time buyers will appreciate the quality of a Vivly Living home. We offer style, practicality and modern features. We believe in creating homes for life and hope that your first step onto the property ladder marks the beginning of a lifelong relationship with us.

Avoid April’s Stamp Duty increases

Stamp Duty relief ends on the 31st of March 2025. If you’re looking to buy in 2025 and are in a position to do so before April, it is strongly advised to start making your move now! Since 2022, buyers have been able to enjoy a raised Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) threshold of £250,000, meaning you pay no tax on the first £250,000 of your purchase. But as of April 2025, this threshold will drop back down to £125,000, which means more upfront costs for nearly all buyers.

The rules are slightly different for first-time buyers, so if you are interested to find out more, read our blog on 'What the Autumn Budget 2024 means for homeowners and potential buyers’ here.

So, if you’ve been considering a new home, these next few months could be your window to save on costs. Completing before April means locking in the lower Stamp Duty rates – and keeping more of your money in your pocket.

The faster you make your decision, the better. Leaving as much time as possible for conveyancing, mortgage approvals and buyer/seller complications is the safest way to ensure that you’ll be able to take advantage of the current rates.

2025 is the perfect time to take the leap and move into a Vivly Living home. From our stunning locations and high-quality builds to our people-first approach, we offer a living experience that suits your needs.

By acting now, you can avoid the April stamp duty increases and secure your dream home before costs rise. Visit one of our developments, explore the homes on offer and see for yourself why Vivly Living is the right choice for you.

Don’t just buy a house, buy a home that fits your life perfectly. With Vivly Living, the search for this is simple; make 2025 the year you take that exciting step!
