Things to consider about Sanctuary

In its favour

  • Owners who resold have made money: a median gain of up to 9%.
  • Several schools within 3 km.

Worth checking

  • Few sales each year, so a resale can take longer and prices move on a handful of deals.
  • Still being built: the handover date can move, and the price is paid in stages before you get the keys.
