Lovell keeps it in the family

For Manchester families in need of more space, homebuilder Lovell has a selection of spacious homes available with no stamp duty to pay.

An appealing four-bedroom home at the popular Gern8 development in Miles Platting costs less than £150,000 and, thanks to a commitment to help first time buyers in the area, the new homes are exempt from stamp duty.

Gener8 has so far been a very successful scheme and Lovell has clearly hit on a winning formula for homebuyers, with properties featuring a high specification interior range including top name brands. An integrated dishwasher, fridge freezer, washing machine and double oven all come as standard, which means the homes have the edge over second hand properties.

Add to the mix the excellent transport links to the city centre, and plans to offer green open spaces and new parkland at the location, Lovell’s price of £149,995 for a four-bedroom home looks very attractive. Prospective buyers can sample life behind doors at Gener8 when a stunning show home opens later this month.

Michelle Shaw, field sales manager for Lovell, said: “We understand the pressure on growing families who need space. The larger properties at this development offer great value for money and the chance to be part of a developing community.

“Gener8 will give families the perfect environment to live with leisure facilities, easy access to the city and, because the properties are eco-friendly, there are reduced energy costs too.”

The four-bedroom ‘Platley’ home has three floors of flexible living space. On the ground floor there is a spacious kitchen, which leads to the open-plan living and dining area, and a cloakroom, complemented by additional storage space. On the first floor there are two generous bedrooms and a family bathroom, plus a stylish master bedroom and en-suite shower room on the top floor.

“Whether you have a new arrival or just need space for a growing brood of teenagers, the Platley will suit every family’s needs as they expand,” added Michelle.

Lovell aims to create over 1,000 new homes at Gener8, in conjunction with Manchester City Council, in an established residential area.

A newly opened £7.4 million primary school and the extension of the Metrolink tram system providing fast, frequent trams later this year can only add to the appeal of the area.
