Get help to buy a stunning apartment at Peninsula in Dovercourt

Homebuyers in Essex have a superb chance to snap up a beautiful apartment for a great-value price at Taylor Wimpey’s Peninsula development in Dovercourt.

The Government’s Help to Buy equity loan scheme is now available with stylish one and two-bedroom apartments, priced from just £84,995 at Peninsula, which boasts a sought-after location in this popular seaside town.

Help to Buy enables first-time buyers and those looking to move home to secure a Government loan for up to 20% of their new home’s full price – meaning they only require a 75% loan-to-value mortgage and a deposit as low as 5%.

Caroline Carter, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “The availability of Help to Buy at Peninsula means that our stunning one and two-bedroom apartments are now even more affordable than ever for first-time buyers and those with a property to sell.

“However, I’d advise anyone hoping to take advantage of this scheme to act now, as it’s already generating a huge amount of interest among home-hunters in the area.”

Each apartment at Peninsula has been thoughtfully designed to maximise space and natural light and would ideally suit first-time buyers or couples. Selected plots boast en-suite master bedrooms and/or attractive balconies with views of the Stour shoreline.

The one-bedroom ‘Maldon’ apartment, priced from £84,995, features an open-plan kitchen/living/dining room, a master bedroom and a main bathroom, while outside, there is allocated parking.

Alternatively, two-bedroom apartment designs include the ‘Frinton’, priced from £94,995, the ‘Kirby’ from £96,995, the ‘Oakley’ from £99,995, and the ‘Walton’ from £104,995.

All of the new homes at Peninsula 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.

Help to Buy is available on new-build properties up to the value of £600,000, and there is no salary cap for homebuyers taking advantage of this scheme.

Peninsula offers homebuyers an enviable lifestyle close to Blue Flag beaches, a wealth of restaurants, bars and cafes, a weekly market and monthly farmers’ market plus a great choice of shops, including an Asda supermarket on the doorstep.

In addition to windsurfing and a wide range of watersports, Dovercourt Leisure Centre in Low Road offers a swimming pool and solarium, fitness suite and floodlit pitch, while there are also local facilities for football, rugby, cricket and tennis.

Walking trails provide the chance to explore the nearby woodlands and meadows, while the country lanes and shoreline also make for perfect cycling.

Commuters will appreciate that Dovercourt Railway Station is only half a mile from home, offering regular services to Colchester in 30 minutes, Chelmsford in 60 minutes, and London Liverpool Street in 90 minutes. Road links are also excellent, with the A120 to Colchester close by, and Stansted Airport only 50 miles away.
