Moving home is often listed as one of the most stressful events in our lifetime – but equally it’s an exciting time, a new chapter waiting to be written; new memories to be made.

At Pearl House, we’re dedicated to making your life run as smoothly as possible – from our luxurious homes where you can simply turn the key, unpack and relax, to our hotel-style concierge who can take care of the little things that make a big difference.

The home buying process is no different – our aim is to make it as straightforward as possible. Our knowledgeable advisors are here to guide you through the home buying journey, every step of the way. And with our part exchange scheme, we can even take away the stress of selling your existing home.

We’re partnered with one of the UK’s most experienced and trusted part exchange providers, The PX Partnership, enabling us to guarantee the sale of your existing property through a home buying process that’s straightforward and fast.

Selling your home through our part exchange process removes uncertainties, by offering you a guaranteed sale of your property. In turn, this allows you to purchase your new home at Pearl House quickly and smoothly, with no risk of chains breaking or your sale falling through.With no estate agent’s fees to pay, this option can save you thousands of pounds.

Here are just some of the reasons so many of our customers opt to take part in our part exchange scheme:

• Quick offers – no need to wait for a buyer.
• Guaranteed sale – no risk of your sale falling through.
• Fixed price – avoid last minute price re-negotiations.
• Speed – your sale can proceed quickly to secure the Pearl House home you wish to buy.
• No estate agents fees – avoiding these fees can save you a considerable sum.
• Preferred moving date – choose your moving date at the outset and make plans with confidence.
• No chain – part exchange avoids becoming part of a chain, which can cause lengthy delays.
• No EPC required – saving you time and money.
• Stress-free removals – hold the keys for both your new and old homes for up to two weeks after completion, removing the stress of moving on one day.
• Worry and hassle-free – specifically designed to ensure your move is simple and straightforward.

So, how does our part exchange process work? Once you’ve chosen which exclusive home at Pearl House you’d like to buy, we’ll ask The PX Partnership to contact you. Their expert team will arrange valuations of your current home from two local estate agents.

Once the valuations have been made, an offer on your property will be made by The PX Partnership to us, and we’ll discuss this figure with you. You’re under absolutely no obligation, and if you choose to decline the offer there will be no cost to you.

If you choose to accept the offer, we’ll contact The PX Partnership for you – who will then arrange for a survey to be undertaken, and solicitors will be instructed to commence the legal process and work towards a completion date.

Once The PX Partnership have completed the purchase of your property, you can either choose to move into your new home at Pearl House immediately, or you have the flexibility to stay in your previous property for up to two weeks, so that you can move gradually to your new apartment, making the move even more stress-free.

Book your appointment to find out more and join us at our PX event to see how part exchanging your current home can work for you.

This Pearl situated right in the midst of Newbury provides a prestigious centrepiece for horse racing and the town; as one of the most attractive independent courses in the UK, Newbury Racecourse is celebrated by both flat and jumps trainers worldwide but especially those from Lambourn the nearby training centre, who produce excellent home-grown talent to follow. With their star attraction coming soon on 26^th and 27^th November in the form of the Ladbrokes Winter Carnival we thought this pearl would provide some interesting historical background to this celebrated event.

Racing has been focused on the Newbury area for some considerable time in one form or another, the first recorded racing at Newbury took place in 1805 with ‘Newbury Races’, an annual two-day race meeting at Enborne Heath. This continued until 1811 when it transferred to Woodhay Heath, with racing taking place here until 1815.

It was not until 90 years later when Kingsclere trainer, John Porter proposed a new racecourse at Newbury. The Jockey Club rejected Porter’s plans several times until a chance meeting with King Edward VII brought about a further application and with the King’s backing the application was approved.

In April 1904 the Newbury Racecourse Company was formed, land was purchased, and construction started on buildings and stables at a cost of £57,240. September 26th and 27th, 1905 saw the first ever flat race meeting at Newbury Racecourse, Copper King ridden by Charles Trigg and trained by Charles Marnes won the opening race, the Whatcombe Handicap. Marnes was presented with a Silver Cup (value £25) and Trigg received a gold mounted whip (value £10).

National Hunt racing followed shortly after Flat racing and in 1906, nine days racing were planned for Newbury in 1906 – six on the Flat and three over Jumps. A member’s badge which also covered the two days in 1905 was priced at 7 guineas!

Newbury racecourse has seen high-profile horses and trainers launch winning careers, legendary winner of 5 Cheltenham Gold Cups, Golden Miller made his steeplechasing debut at Newbury in 1931 and won, only to be disqualified for carrying the wrong weight.

Having hosted racing for over 100 years, the racecourse now hosts 29 race meetings annually – a mixture of flat and national hunt, major races held here include the Group 1 Lockinge Stakes, and its most famous race the Hennessy Gold Cup or as it is now known The Ladbrokes Trophy. Both Her Majesty The Queen and The Queen Mother have had many successful days racing their horses at the course.

Today there is provision for racegoers at every level, you can find all kinds of entertainment, including live music in the summer. The stands offer fantastic views of the course and for those looking to spend their winnings there is everything from fine dining to coffee shops, bars and even a bakery.

The Racecourse has a dedicated railway station on the line to London Paddington, and there is plenty of free parking on site – why not combine a visit to Pearl House for morning coffee with a trip to the racecourse?

Pearl House, Eden Retirement Livings first development in Newbury has been shortlisted for the Housing Design Awards 2021.

The submission for Pearl House Newbury was made by Eden Retirement Living architects ACG who designed the building creating 60 bespoke one- and two-bedroom apartments and penthouses for independent later living, along with communal facilities, concierge services, guest accommodation, retail units and car parking.

The building is unique in its design with a series of 3 and 4-storey blocks arranged in a C shape and centred around a split-level landscaped courtyard garden. Overlooking the main garden is the residents’ lounge, studio, and restaurant. On the upper courtyard level, raised planters are used to define communal garden areas and private patio spaces.

A simple material palette of red brick and bronze is enriched by a variety of textures and details including brick frames, smooth light bronze panels and recessed balconies. Inspiration has been drawn from the neighbouring 19th Century Georgian buildings and courtyard spaces to design a contemporary scheme that responds sensitively to the local area and provides an attractive backdrop for the Grade I listed St Nicholas Church.

The apartment interiors have been designed to be fully accessible for wheelchair users. Kitchen units have generous room between the units for ease of wheelchair movement and bathrooms have level access.

The Housing Design awards were launched in 1948 and are the longest running. World class judges who are experts in their field, range from planning to design and are highly respected here in the UK and overseas.

These are the only Awards promoted by all 5 major professional institutions – RICS, RIBA, RTPI, Landscape Institute and Chartered Institute of Architectural Technologists, meaning the awards are genuinely a cross industry partnership between various arms of government, the private sector and all key professional institutions.

Managing Partner Liam Kelly commented ‘we are thrilled to have been shortlisted for this award, as our first site for Eden, we took the design and concept very seriously and ACG have produced some fantastic designs reflecting our knowledge of the sector and taking things on a stage, we really hope people will enjoy living here and enjoying he space that we have created.’

The growing of grain around Newbury has been an important source of prosperity for many centuries, possibly back to prehistoric times. A great income for landowners and the town itself. The Charter granted to Newbury in 1581 by Queen Elizabeth I allowed the Mayor, Alderman and Burgesses to charge a toll on all corn sold in its markets. It is likely that corn was sold in the Market Place, in the open or shelter of the Guildhall, which stood there from 1611 to 1828.

In the 19th century, the importance of the grain trade saw Reading architect J.S. Dodd appointed to design the Corn Exchange building. Work began in 1861 and the building was opened on 4th June 1862. Merchants and farmers selling or buying corn congregated in the large open hall. A wool market was also held annually. Corn dealing in the Corn Exchange gradually declined until only one token desk came out on Market day. As something of a social event for the local farmers and dealers, other dealings were introduced, including oil, insurance and farm machinery. This finally ceased in 1983.

Throughout its life the Corn Exchange has been a major public building in Newbury. Its original prime purpose has been superseded by its secondary function as a venue for major public events in the town. After closing for four years, the Corn Exchange reopened in September 1993 after a £3.5 million refurbishment programme as a professional 400-seat theatre.

Today the Corn Exchange receives more than 100,000 visitors a year from across the region and hosts all manner of events, including the fantastic Newbury Spring Festival. We hope you will enjoy its events when you make a move to Pearl House.
