Step on the property ladder with help to buy at Kings Park

The Eastwell Apartments at Kings Park

The majority of people across the nation still aspire to owning their own home, new research has found. Some 72% of adults want to be homeowners within the next two years according to research from the Council of Mortgage Lenders as part of its long running series on attitudes to housing. In addition, a majority of people - regardless of their own circumstances - feel that it is harder than it has ever been for young people to buy their own home with 75% believing action is necessary to help first-time buyers.

Those who are looking for an easier way to fly the nest can do so through the London Help To Buy scheme at Countryside’s newly launched Allerton and Eastwell apartments at Kings Park, Harold Wood. This allows buyers to purchase with as little as a 5% deposit, the Government will then provide an equity loan of up to 40% of the property’s value, which is interest free for the first five years.

Andrew Loveday, Sales Director at Countryside comments: “It is increasingly evident that a number of house-hunters are looking to the outskirts of London to find their long-term home. Home ownership is valued as a major landmark for personal and financial development and Countryside understands that affordability is crucial. We are offering a number of homes at Kings Park with Help to Buy providing the opportunity to purchase a home whereby it may be cheaper to buy than rent. With the impending Crossrail and already fast access to the centre of London, Kings Park in Harold Wood is proving very popular.”

Kings Park is currently offering an impressive collection of one and two bedroom apartments featuring a high specification and outside space with either a terrace or balcony. Benefitting from a beautiful parkland setting, with tree-lined avenues and green open spaces, Kings Park offers an outstanding lifestyle in an excellent location.

The Allerton and Eastwell Apartments are a collection of one and two-bedroom homes, with every property providing access to a private outdoor space and allocated parking. The apartment’s spacious open-plan living, kitchen and dining area, opens out to either a terrace or balcony, flooding the entire indoor space with natural light. The master bedroom in each home creates the ideal get-away, featuring integrated wardrobes and luxurious en-suites in the two bedroom apartments.

All built to an impressive specification, these stylish homes are meticulously designed to complement modern living. Contemporary kitchens feature gloss white units, stone worktops throughout and dark grey ceramic floor tiling. Bathrooms boast stylish white sanitary-ware, chrome accessories and warming oak details, creating a stylish oasis ideal for unwinding.

Despite its picturesque setting, Kings Park is within easy walking distance of a great range of amenities including a Post Office, supermarket, travel agent, several hairdressers, a bakery and a restaurant. Meanwhile, nearby Brentwood is home to many bars and eateries, a selection of high street and independent shops and charming boutiques.

Harold Wood Station is a five minute walk from Kings Park and from 2019 residents will be able to access the Crossrail’s Elizabeth Line, which will decrease journey times into central London by up to 19 minutes, and will offer direct and stress-free commutes into London. In addition to superb rail services, Kings Park is near to the A12, A127 and M25 for fast connections to London, Kent and further afield, whilst easy access to the M11 is convenient for travel through Essex and Hertfordshire to Cambridge.

Prices for the Allerton and Eastwell apartments start from £370,000 for a two bedroom property. For more information, visit kings-park.co.uk.
