Boutique style homes in Wokingham made affordable
An eye for architecture, design and specification has brought a new look to modern housing as Home Group unveils a collection of cool, chic one and two bedroom apartments at Wiltshire Place just outside Wokingham in Berkshire. The homes are available on a shared ownership basis starting at £63,875 for a 35% share of a one bedroom apartment based on a full market value of £182,500. Two bedroom apartments start from £83,125 for a 35% share based on a full market value of £237,500
Situated just three miles from Wokingham, a picturesque market town which has recently been named as the best place to raise a family in an annual report by Family Investments and which maintained its place at number 3 in the 2012 Halifax Quality of Life survey, Wiltshire Place is located in a leafy residential setting known locally as the ‘green mile’. Offering a great range of local amenities, including schools and education centres, and a low level of crime, the town is also perfect for commuters with London Waterloo just under an hour away by rail and the M4 just minutes away by road.
The development comprises two manor house style buildings with doorways framed by grand pillars reflecting the traditional style of properties in this exclusive area.
Sophia Arain, Sales and Marketing Manager for Home Group comments: “With four apartments already reserved, the development has already proved popular with locals who have been raised in Wokingham and want to continue living in this highly praised area. The properties are available on a shared ownership basis, which means instead of having to fund the full cost of your new home, you can buy part of it and pay a subsidised rent on the balance, with the option to purchase additional shares as years go by, until the full 100 % can be yours!”
The beautifully appointed apartments have open plan living areas and have been finished to an extremely high specification. Features include contemporary style fitted kitchens with hob, stainless steel electric oven, chimney extractor, splash back and washer dryer. Bathrooms have thermostatically controlled showers with shower screen and vinyl flooring, while the two bedroom apartments benefit from en-suites as well.
Some of the ground floor apartments have their own private entry while some of the top floor apartments feature large porthole windows with wonderful views of the landmark church spire and the town centre just 3 miles away.
Wokingham benefits from excellent transport links being within three miles of Bracknell and seven miles of Reading. Central London is 37 miles away and easily accessible by rail, with a journey time of 49 minutes into London Paddington.
