Apartment living has never been so affordable

First-time buyers could be moving into a newly built home a lot sooner than they think as one regional builder launches a stunning range of apartments.

Persimmon Homes Wessex opens its apartment showhome on Saturday 22nd February to put the spotlight on its spacious, yet affordable homes in Calne.

The Acorn apartments, priced from £117,995, form part of The Oaks development, in Hercules Road, which also offers nine different house styles, including three and four-bedroom properties.

Pauline Fletcher, sales and marketing director for Persimmon Homes Wessex, said: “These stylish new apartments will be ideal for first-time buyers, young professionals and investors.

“The development is located in the picturesque town of Calne and with Help to Buy available, 2014 could be a very exciting time for people looking to make a move.”

Help to Buy is a Government-backed shared equity scheme. It provides a 20% loan on the term of your mortgage, which is interest and repayment free for the first five years, while people only need a 5% deposit.

Pauline added: “For just £390 a month, people could be moving into their own apartment through the Help to Buy scheme, but with only eight apartments available people need to hurry if they don’t want to miss out.”
