Snap up a family home in Thornaby
23 November 2007
In today’s housing market the opportunity for first time buyers to get on to the property ladder at all is getting more and more difficult, so buying a larger family home can often seem like an impossible dream.
Which is why housebuilder Barratt Newcastle is extending its Dream Start incentive scheme to larger properties within its massive range of house styles, which makes making that first step on to the property ladder much more achievable for both first time buyers and also key workers.
The Dream Start package offers all first-time buyers and key workers the opportunity to buy a home today for 75% of the asking price with the remaining 25 per cent deferred — without interest or rent — for up to 10 years, or until the house is resold.
This means that for the first time family-sized properties such as the 3 bedroom detached Maidstone design can be bought at Mandale Park in Thornaby under the Dream Start incentive from just £123,750.
The Maidstone is a 3 bedroom detached family home, which includes an entrance lobby with downstairs wc, open plan lounge with the staircase to the first floor, a fitted kitchen with a dining area to seat five and French doors into the back garden. On the first floor the master bedroom has an en-suite shower room and there is another double bedroom, single bedroom and the family bathroom. This house also has a garage.
Mandale Park is a successful rejuvenation project of 800 brand new homes, which is now almost 90% complete. The houses from Barratt homes on this development feature several award-winning designs.
All have traditional exteriors while internally they feature modern fitted kitchens with oven, hob and extractor hood, plus a range of extras such as en suites, downstairs toilets and French doors.
Each property also benefits from double-glazing and gas central heating, and all the houses have a garage. Prices start from £169,000 (£123,750 with Dream Start) to £203,500. Incentives include Dream Start, 100 per cent part exchange, 5 per cent deposit paid or up to £500 a month mortgage subsidy for 12 months.
The showhomes and sales and marketing suite are open daily from 11am to 6pm. Alternatively, Barratthomes.co.uk contains comprehensive information about all sites and locations.
