First-time buyers are being offered an exciting opportunity to secure their place at Taylor Wimpey’s prestigious Waterside Grange development of new homes in Langley – with a deposit as low as £8,750!

The Government-backed FirstBuy initiative is now available at this stunning waterside community on the banks of the Grand Union Canal, giving qualifying customers the chance to purchase selected new apartments in Langley for 80% of their full price.

With prices starting at just £175,000 for stylish ‘Milton House’ one-bedroom apartments for sale in Langley, first-time buyers could achieve their dreams of home ownership at Waterside Grange for only £140,000, including a deposit of as little as £8,750, subject to status.
