Legal & General Homes has announced the introduction of virtual reality (VR) technology at its Nobel Park development in Didcot, Oxfordshire, to give buyers a unique preview of the outstanding design and layout of its one- and two-bedroom apartments available for purchase.

This innovative initiative allows potential buyers to virtually step inside a furnished one-and two-bedroom apartment before they are built, offering a unique and immersive experience that sets a new standard in property viewing.

Prospective buyers can use the VR headset to ‘walk through’ the apartments in an entirely new way and to scale, to get a feel for the space, furniture layout and specifications available such as kitchen design, bathroom layout and balcony views.

With a click of a button, buyers can also see how a bedroom could be transformed into a study to help them view how the apartment can be altered to suit their needs. The experience can be cast onto a TV screen or iPad, making it a shared experience for couples, families and friends.

The VR provides an invaluable tool for buyers to get a realistic sense of their potential home, helping buyers to have more confidence in their off-plan purchase decision. Purchasing off-plan also means they can choose their finishes for both kitchen and bathrooms from L&G Home’s range of colour palettes and tile choices.

The VR has proved popular since its launch earlier this year and for those buyers looking to move in by Christmas, there are just eight one- and two-bedroom apartments remaining.

Hannah Chaulk recently purchased an apartment off-plan at Nobel Park following a VR viewing. Hannah said: “The VR headset provided a more realistic view of the apartment compared to brochure floor plans. It offered a better sense of the space and an interactive way to explore it.

“It was my first time using VR to view a home, and I really enjoyed the experience, especially when watching my mother use it. Many local developers are selling flats without any physical viewing options, so this technology provided valuable insight into the space and layout.

“The VR experience not only made the viewing more accurate and helpful but also added an element of fun and memorability. This surpassed what other developers offered and was instrumental in my final decision.

“I would highly recommend the VR headset to anyone in a similar situation. It makes the challenging decision of buying a property sight unseen much easier.”

The introduction of the VR headset also includes a website CGI virtual tour of the one- and two-bedroom apartments and a 30-second animation video of the interiors of the apartments which are designed to highlight the compelling nature of the VR experience.

The state-of-the-art apartments have an all-inclusive high-quality specification which includes Hive smart heating, Bosch integrated appliances, premium flooring throughout, and balconies, some of which offer beautiful countryside views.
