Secure a property in Nottinghamshire with a 5% deposit

The FirstBuy initiative lets homebuyers secure selected properties for 80% of their full price at Kings Acre, Taylor Wimpey’s sought-after development of new homes for sale in Clipstone, Nottinghamshire.

First-time buyers can step on the Nottinghamshire property ladder with an affordable deposit by taking advantage of the FirstBuy scheme at Taylor Wimpey’s Kings Acre development of new homes in Clipstone.

This exceptional Government-backed initiative allows qualifying purchasers to secure selected property for sale in Clipstone from this sought-after collection for just 80% of their full price, including a 5% deposit, subject to status.

With two and three-bedroom homes currently available under FirstBuy and a stunning new showhome now open at the Taylor Wimpey Nottinghamshire development, aspiring homeowners are being urged to visit Kings Acre without delay to find out more.

Carolyne Watkinson, Regional Sales Manager for Taylor Wimpey, says: “Ever since our new showhome opened, we’ve been welcoming more and more visitors in search of apartments and houses for sale in Nottinghamshire to Kings Acre, with many of them first-time buyers looking to find out more about FirstBuy.

“This superb scheme is available now with a strictly limited number of properties to buy in Clipstone at the development – so anyone hoping to secure their first home with a 5% deposit should visit our Sales Centre as soon as possible!”

FirstBuy works through a joint loan of 20% from the Homes and Communities Agency and Taylor Wimpey, which is repayable at the end of the 25-year mortgage term or when the property in Clipstone is sold. To be eligible, purchasers must be first-time buyers and their total household earnings should be less than £60,000.

This means that one fast-acting purchaser can secure the two-bedroom ‘Edale’ coach house-style apartment, for example, for 80% of its £99,995 full price – that’s just £79,996, including a 5% deposit of £5,000, subject to status.

Also available under FirstBuy are the three-bedroom ‘Denford’ house from £126,995 (80% FirstBuy prices from £101,596) and the three-bedroom ‘Crofton’ property from £142,995 (80% FirstBuy prices from £114,396).

All homes at the development are completed to a high standard specification, including energy efficient central heating, double glazing and a fitted kitchen with integrated oven, hob and hood.

Kings Acre enjoys a convenient location in the heart of Sherwood Forest close to a host of everyday amenities in the popular village of Clipstone, including local shops, pubs, a health centre, a pharmacy, a post office and takeaway outlets.

For a wider choice of facilities, Mansfield and the Four Seasons Shopping Centre are just four miles from the development, while Nottingham, one of the nation’s most vibrant shopping, leisure and entertainment destinations, is only 14 miles away.

Parents will appreciate that the village primary school is located within easy reach of the development and Garibaldi College is also nearby and includes a sports complex which is also open to the public.

For commuters, the A60 and the A614 are easily accessible from Kings Acre, for quick routes to Nottingham, while the M1 is just nine miles from home.
