Aspiring first-time buyers can secure a spacious family-size home for an affordable price at Bluebell Croft, Taylor Wimpey’s sought-after development of properties for sale in Kidsgrove.

The Government-backed FirstBuy scheme is available now with the three-bedroom ‘Woodville’ townhouse, offering a helping hand to Staffordshire property-seekers who are struggling to get a foot onto the property ladder.

This fantastic initiative means the ‘Woodville’ can be accessed by a qualifying first-time buyer for 80% of its full £162,995 purchase price – that’s just £130,396, including a 5% deposit of only £8,150, subject to status.

Taylor Wimpey and the Homes and Communities Agency will boost the purchaser’s down-payment with a joint loan of 20%, which is repayable at the end of the 25-year mortgage term, or when the property is sold. To be eligible for FirstBuy, customers must be first-time buyers with a household income below £60,000.

Carl Cooke, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “FirstBuy offers first-time buyers a unique opportunity to secure this exceptional property in Kidsgrove – the ‘Woodville’ is a superb first home offering plenty of space for young families to grow into.

“With such an amazing deal on the table, however, this stunning new home is sure to be snapped up quickly – so anyone hoping to take advantage of this leg-up onto the property ladder should hurry before someone else beats them to it!”

The ‘Woodville’ at Bluebell Croft is characterised by a spacious living/dining room opening through French doors to the private rear garden, plus a fitted breakfast kitchen and a handy guest cloakroom located off the entrance hallway.

Upstairs, the first-floor landing leads to two bedrooms and a main bathroom, while the en-suite master bedroom enjoys appealing seclusion on the top floor. Outside, the property benefits from a garage and allocated parking.

In common with all new homes at Bluebell Croft, the ‘Woodville’ enjoys a high standard specification, including gas central heating, double glazing and a fitted kitchen with built-in oven, hob and hood.

The new homes at Bluebell Croft are located in an established residential area, with a beautiful tree-lined public open space forming the heart of the development and mature trees and hedgerows complemented by new planting and landscaping.

The development enjoys a convenient location close to a range of amenities for day-to-day living, including shops, pubs, places to eat, a supermarket, a library, a health centre, a post office, a bank and schools for children of all ages.

Kidsgrove stands on the Trent and Mersey and Macclesfield Canals, both of which are navigable by boat, and offer scenic towpath walks, while the Sustrans National Cycle Network also passes through the area.

The town is home to an artificial ski slope, and keen golfers will be pleased to hear that the highly-regarded Alsager Golf and Country Club is located close to Bluebell Croft.

Nearby Stoke-on-Trent has a rich history that grew from the pottery industry, and today is a vibrant city offering great shopping and leisure opportunities. For days out a little further afield, Kidsgrove is within easy reach of both the Peak District and picturesque North Wales.

Bluebell Croft has excellent commuter links, being close to the A34, for convenient access to Newcastle-under-Lyme, plus the A50 for Stoke, while junction 16 of the M6 is just seven miles from home.

Kidsgrove railway station is only a mile from the new homes, and offers regular services to Stoke-on-Trent, Derby, Crewe, Manchester and London Euston.

To stand a chance of securing the ‘Woodville’ with FirstBuy at Bluebell Croft, first-time buyers can visit the Sales Centre, located off West Avenue/Old Butt Lane, Kidsgrove, ST7 1TW, and open 11am to 5pm from Thursday to Monday, or visit taylorwimpey.co.uk.
