Armed Forces Discount Scheme available at The Primary in Southall

Situated on Featherstone Road, Southall, just under six miles from RAF Northolt, Barratt London’s The Primary, a new development of 82 contemporary one-bedroom suites, one and two-bedroom apartments, is offering Armed Forces personnel a reduced price on their property through the Barratt Homes Armed Forces Discount Scheme. Anyone set to retire from the forces this year will be eligible until the end of 2013.
People who qualify for Armed Forces discount will be offered a £1,000 discount for every £25,000 on the cost of the property they are buying. For example, on a home costing £158,000 Armed Forces personnel would qualify for a reduction of £6,000.
The Primary is approximately 6 miles from RAF Northolt and only 20 minutes away by car. Located in Zone 4, the development is within easy reach of Heathrow airport (13 minutes by car) as well as central London (under 20 minutes to Paddington Station) via First Great Western rail service and the new Crossrail Line from 2018. Not only is the station being upgraded as part of the connection to Crossrail but London bus routes 105, 120, 195, 482, E5 and H32 all serve Southall Station, which is only a 10 minute walk away.
The development offers communal landscaped podium gardens exclusively for residents and there is parking and balconies or terraces to most apartments as well. The development has already launched for off-plan sales, with first completions scheduled for spring 2013.
Once home to the Duchess of Cambridge’s mother, Carol Middleton (or Goldsmith as she was then), Southall, Ealing, is a vibrant area in West London. Featherstone Road, where The Primary development is located, runs into Dudley Road, once home to Mrs Middleton’s family.
Southall is home to some of London’s top Indian restaurants and has been used as a film location in several Bollywood films, as well as ‘Bend it like Beckham’, staring Kiera Knightley.
Built on the grounds of an old Victorian primary school, the development will introduce brand new homes to the area that are perfect for first time buyers, downsizers, young families and investors.
Gary Patrick, regional sales director, says: “Our Armed Forces Discount Scheme is a great incentive to help military personnel get their feet on the property ladder and with its close proximity to RAF Northolt, The Primary is an excellent option for those posted at, or those that use the military base frequently as part of their work.
“The Primary is also ideal for first time buyers who have been struggling to find a way onto the property ladder in London, where prices are well above the national average and for anyone who travels regularly and needs a convenient, low maintenance London base.”
