Find out how you can put down roots at Graylingwell Park

Join national affordable housing provider, Affinity Sutton and a team of experts at the award-winning Graylingwell Park development in Chichester on Thursday 4th October; the sales team, along with mortgage advisors and solicitors, will be on hand from 4pm to 7pm to offer free information and advice on buying a home through shared ownership.

With shares starting from as little as 30 per cent, prospective buyers will be able to learn about the current range of homes available at Nightingales, the latest phase at Graylingwell Park which comprises new and refurbished one and two-bedroom apartments and newly built, three-bedroom houses.

The first homes to be released are the apartments in the restored buildings; the newly built apartments and houses will be released later in the year. Prices start from £49,650 and for a 30 per cent share, buyers only need a deposit of just £2,483.

Comments Affinity Sutton’s sales director Yvette Ruggins: “Shared ownership is an ideal way for buyers to get onto the property ladder. They can buy as large a share as they can afford up to 75 per cent and pay a discounted rent on the share they don’t own. At any stage, they can buy further shares as their circumstances change; eventually they can own their home outright.

“What makes this offer particularly unusual is the choice of homes available to buyers; it’s comparatively rare to find converted homes on a shared ownership basis and at Graylingwell Park, we are particularly lucky to have so many of the original Victorian and Regency buildings that were the original wards for the former Graylingwell Hospital; these are now the subject of an extensive programme of restoration and conversion which is creating some wonderful homes that are full of character. To reflect the site’s history we’re even keeping the original ward names for each of the buildings. Interested buyers should be quick to make their choice!”

Set within 85 acres of parkland, Graylingwell Park is a partnership between Linden Homes, Affinity Sutton and the Homes and Communities Agency. This award-winning scheme is the UK’s largest carbon neutral development, with high quality, energy-efficient homes set in glorious surroundings with nature trails and plenty of green open spaces. With environmental sustainability and community at its heart, a new community garden has recently opened for residents to grow their own fruit and vegetables, with everyone who takes part benefiting from the produce. There will also be an orchard, farm shop and community hall.

Graylingwell Park is perfectly located; while it is surrounded by glorious green parkland, it is less than a mile from Chichester’s historic city centre which offers a comprehensive range of shops, bars and restaurants. Reaching the coast is easy too, with the stunning beach of West Wittering around ten miles away.
