New build connection

You'd need to speak to VM Sales to get a site survey, but if this is full fibre then it ought to be possible to extend to a new point outside the new house. Coax might be more difficult. 

Is your own fibre connection a recent one?

We've started our new build in the garden beside our house.

We currently have Virgin fibre to our existing house and would like the same in our new one. (Whilst there is a BT cabinet right outside they are only offering fibre to cabinet & City Fibre are due at some point to fibre the village, Virgin are the only full fibre option.

However we are the last house on the run from the grey box. Does that mean we can't have a fibre connection unless we get Virgin to move the existing connection into the new building? (That bit would be easy enough as the entry for the fibre is a couple of metres from the new house but clearly would impact our existing house)

The only issue you would have is if the cabinet was running at capacity regarding the number of taps in use, or the connection exceeded the maximum viable distance from it. Fibre on VM is an anomaly, as in 95% of the country they are running cable (RF driven DOCSIS network) Broadband. This network is fibre-to-node, so the fibre may terminate up to 1kM away & service you through copper coaxial (Max possible from these networks 10Gb down, 1Gb up). There will be no effect on your existing connection by adding the new build. Even if both houses were sharing the same wall box, as long as you are not too far from the cabinet it will not have a detrimental effect.

It's fibre right to the house before terminating into coax just outside the house wall in the brown box.

The grey cabinet is 120m away ish.
