The Edale at Kings Acre

The FirstBuy scheme is available with selected homes at Taylor Wimpey’s Kings Acre development in Clipstone – making it even easier for aspiring homeowners to step on the Nottinghamshire property ladder.

First-time buyers have a superb chance to secure a brand new property in Clipstone without spending months or even years saving a deposit at Taylor Wimpey’s Kings Acre development.

The leading housebuilder has a selection of high-quality new homes in Clipstone available with the FirstBuy scheme, offering aspiring homeowners the opportunity to snap up their perfect property for just 80% of its full price. Subject to status, homebuyers taking advantage of FirstBuy require a deposit of just 5%.

The two-bedroom Plot 59 ‘Edale’ property for sale in Clipstone, for example, is priced at £99,995, but can be purchased by a qualifying customer under FirstBuy for an 80% price of only £79,996, including a deposit as low as £4,999!

Carolyne Watkinson, Sales Manager for Taylor Wimpey Nottinghamshire, says: “Many first-time buyers struggle to take that important first step on the property ladder because of the hefty deposits often required by mortgage lenders – but FirstBuy offers them an easier way into home-ownership.

“Selected properties in Clipstone can be secured by qualifying customers for an affordable deposit with the Government-backed incentive and anyone hoping to take advantage of this amazing opportunity should contact us without delay.”

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 is sold. To be eligible, purchasers must be first-time buyers and their total household earnings should be less than £60,000.

The stylish ‘Edale’ coach house features a private front door and entrance hallway leading upstairs to an open-plan kitchen/living room, two well-proportioned bedrooms and a main bathroom, while the property also benefits from an integral garage.

Alternatively, three-bedroom homes are available now at Kings Acre from as little as £119,995, four-bedroom houses from just £169,995 and five-bedroom properties from only £224,995.

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