Home-hunters choosing the thee-bedroom ‘Croft’ from the range of stunning properties at Taylor Wimpey’s Leybourne Chase development in West Malling, Kent, can enjoy the many benefits of buying brand new.

The leading housebuilder has launched a campaign – Don’t Make Do, Buy New! – to help first-time buyers and existing homeowners realise that purchasing a new property at Leybourne Chase is much easier and more affordable than they might have imagined.

Rather than making do, property-seekers can buy new with a deposit as low as 5% and then look forward to lower monthly mortgage repayments too – all thanks to the fantastic Help to Buy scheme!

Susan Joseph, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “The ‘Croft’ at Leybourne Chase offers a fantastic opportunity for those fed up with making do with their existing home – and with the Help to Buy incentive also available, they’ll find buying new is even easier and more affordable.

“The scheme is available exclusively for new-build properties so purchasers won’t have to worry about expensive repairs that can often come hand-in-hand with an older property – and modern energy-efficient central heating, insulation and double-glazing means that their new home is cheaper to run too. It’s a win-win situation!”

The impressive ‘Croft’, priced at £350,000, offers generous living accommodation across three floors, featuring a spacious living/dining room with double doors opening to the private rear garden, plus a kitchen/breakfast room and a guest cloakroom completing the ground floor layout.

Upstairs, the first floor landing leads to two bedrooms and a family bathroom, while the luxurious en suite master bedroom occupies the entire top floor. Properties of this design also benefit from a garage and driveway parking for two cars outside.

Alternative three bedroom homes are available at Leybourne Chase from £340,000, while four bedroom designs are priced from £440,000. Stylish one and two bedroom apartments are also on sale from only £190,000 and £220,000 respectively.

The Help to Buy scheme enables both eligible first-time buyers and those with a property to sell to secure a Government loan for up to 20% of the full price of their new home, so they only need a 75% loan-to-value mortgage and a deposit as low as 5%.

The initiative is available on new-build properties up to the value of £600,000 and there is no salary cap for customers who take advantage of Help to Buy.

Enjoying a delightful, semi-rural location on the grounds of a former manor house on the outskirts of Leybourne village, near West Malling, Leybourne Chase is a highly desirable new community.

Nearly two-thirds of the development site – some 140 acres – will be preserved as green open space for recreation and leisure, including parks, recreation grounds, fields, children’s playgrounds, sports pitches, footpaths, community allotments and an arboretum.

For commuters, West Malling railway station is just over a mile from the development and provides regular services to London Victoria. Maidstone is only seven miles away by road, while there are also quick links to the M20 for central London.
