New homes are being built across Somerset and will soon be available to rent or buy through low cost home ownership. All these homes will be advertised through Homefinder Somerset. Please note that all completion dates are estimated and may be subject to change.
Important: To be considered for many of the homes shown on this page you will need to have a local connection to the area where the property is, for example the parish, neighbouring parishes. To have a local connection means that you must either live in the area, have previously lived in the area, work there or have family who live there. This will be clearly explained on adverts for homes.
It is important that you keep your Homefinder Somerset application up to date and that it includes details of areas where you have a local connection. If you have not let us know that you have a local connection to an area you will not be considered for a home there if a local connection is required to that area.
