When housebuilders are nearing the end of a development, buyers can often snap up some tempting deals on the last few homes left for sale.

There’s an opportunity to do so at Beechwood in Sacriston, close to Durham City, where Barratt North East has just reduced prices on the final remaining “Washington” two-bedroom terraced houses.

These are now priced at just £99,995 and are available through the Government’s Help to Buy Scheme.

This means buyers could purchase one of these stylish homes with just a five per cent deposit and a 75 per cent mortgage.

The “Washington” is one of Barratt North East’s most popular designs with first-time buyers, who like its open-plan layout, two double bedrooms and 624 sq ft of living space.

It has a living / dining room with French windows opening into the garden, downstairs cloakroom and a contemporary fitted kitchen complete with oven, hob and extractor hood.

The property has energy-efficient heating and double glazing, and buyers also benefit from the exclusive Barratt five-year guarantee on fixtures and fittings.

“The Washington is a terrific first home, all ready to move into and outstanding value for money at these reduced prices,” said Fenton Hewitt, Sales Director.

“I would advise anyone interested to come and talk to us now. They could be settled into their brand new home in time for the Christmas festivities.”

The Beechwood development has grown into a real community. It enjoys the benefits of a semi-rural setting five miles from Durham city centre, with countryside on the doorstep yet within easy reach of amenities and well-located for commuting.

Help to Buy has generated huge interest among North East buyers keen to take the opportunity to purchase a new-build home with just a five per cent deposit.

The magic of the scheme, says Fenton, is that buyers only need a 75 per cent mortgage.

“This means they can get a loan at a lower interest rate, which in turn means monthly payments are much cheaper than with a higher loan-to-value mortgage,” he said.

Showhomes are open at Beechwood from 10.00am to 5.00pm, Thursday to Sunday, and from 11.00am to 6.00pm on Mondays. For details, visit barratthomes.co.uk.
