Northamptonshire property-seekers can take advantage of a great way to secure their first home at Taylor Wimpey’s The Wheatfields development in Burton Latimer.

Taylor Wimpey is offering aspiring first-time buyers a leg up on to the property ladder at its sought-after The Wheatfields collection of new homes in Burton Latimer.

Under the popular Government-backed FirstBuy initiative, selected properties for sale in Burton Latimer can be purchased by qualifying first-time buyers for 80% of their full price, including a 5% deposit, subject to status.

The spacious three-bedroom Plot 131 ‘Denford’ terraced property in Burton Latimer is one of the plots which can be accessed under FirstBuy at The Wheatfields for an 80% price of £119,996 (full price £149,995), with a 5% deposit of just £7,500.

Janet Robinson, Regional Sales Manager for Taylor Wimpey, says: “Great-value new homes for sale in Burton Latimer are always in high demand, and the availability of FirstBuy at The Wheatfields adds to its fantastic appeal for first-time buyers.

“However, this superb scheme is only available with a strictly limited number of properties in Burton Latimer, so I would urge anyone interested in finding out more to contact us without delay – before it’s too late!”

FirstBuy works through a joint loan of 20% from the Homes and Communities Agency and Taylor Wimpey, which is repayable at the end of the 25-year mortgage term or when the property is sold. To be eligible, purchasers must be first-time buyers and their total household earnings should be less than £60,000.

Ideal for couples or young families, the stylish ‘Denford’ features a contemporary fitted kitchen, a spacious lounge/dining room opening through French doors to the private rear garden, plus a handy guest cloakroom off the entrance hallway.

Upstairs, the landing leads to an en-suite master bedroom, two further bedrooms and a main bathroom, while two allocated parking spaces are located outside.

Alternatively, there’s an impressive selection of four-bedroom houses on sale now at The Wheatfields from only £229,995, while magnificent five-bedroom detached designs are priced from just £295,995.

All homes at the development are completed to a high standard specification, including energy efficient central heating, double glazing and a fitted kitchen with an integrated oven, hob and hood.

The Wheatfields boasts an appealing layout featuring an abundance of green open spaces as well as a public sports pitch and a pretty pond.

Burton Latimer is a thriving small town, benefiting from a range of local amenities for everyday needs including traditional pubs, bars, restaurants and takeaways, plus day nurseries, primary schools, a medical centre, a library and a post office.

An out-of-town leisure park, Pegasus Court, is within easy reach of the new homes, and includes a multi-screen cinema, restaurants, shops and a Tesco supermarket, while Wicksteed Park is only a short distance away for fantastic family days out.

Wider leisure, shopping and entertainment opportunities can be found in the market town of Kettering, which is just three miles from The Wheatfields, as well as six miles away in Wellingborough, and only 15 miles away in Northampton.

For commuters, the development has an enviable position close to the A14 for easy access to East Anglia and quick links to the M1 and M6 for London, the Midlands and the north. Kettering railway station is less than four miles from The Wheatfields for direct services to London St Pancras International in as little as 60 minutes, to East Midlands and Luton airports, and north to Leicester, Derby, Nottingham and Sheffield.
