New Homes in Dorset rating highly for Health and Wellbeing

Health and Wellbeing
Since the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020, prioritising our health and quality of life for ourselves and our families has become more crucial than ever before. With this in mind, we understand the significance of choosing a living environment that promotes physical and mental wellbeing.

Here, we provide invaluable insights into the best properties based on their contribution to your health and overall wellbeing in Dorset. Collaborating closely with data experts CLSQ, we meticulously assess every current new homes development, assigning ratings under our ratings category ‘Health & Wellbeing’.

Our Health & Wellbeing rating takes into account various factors to ensure a comprehensive assessment, including proximity to places for active and natural leisure, such as playing fields, playgrounds, swimming and sports facilities, public open spaces, parks, and allotments.

We also consider levels of air pollution, noise levels from road, rail, and air transport, proximity to pylons and power lines, crime levels in the neighbourhood, and road traffic collision data for safety considerations.

By considering these essential factors, our rating system offers an in-depth score to help you understand what to expect in terms of physical and mental health from the area surrounding your potential new home.

The Importance of your Home Location 
Searching for a house is about so much more than just the physical walls that will be your new home. ‘Home’ is also a place where we meet neighbours outside on green spaces, take the children to school nearby, where we can walk to a GP practice and where local transport links ensure we can get to work or places of leisure easily.

Whatever is important to you, the WhatHouse? Location Ratings take into account that ‘home’ is our everyday experience of the surrounding area and how it fits with our lifestyle, just as much as it is the lovely house we will move into. Find out more about what location factors should be considered when searching for your new home:
