Step on the Hampshire property ladder with ease

A Government-backed incentive is making it easier for first-time buyers to achieve their dreams of home-ownership at Taylor Wimpey’s Limes Park development of new homes for sale in Basingstoke, Hampshire.
Fast-moving first-time buyers can step on the property ladder with ease thanks to the FirstBuy scheme at Taylor Wimpey’s Limes Park development of properties in Basingstoke.
This exceptional Government-backed initiative allows qualifying purchasers to secure selected two-bedroom apartments for sale in Basingstoke for just 80% of their full price, including a 5% deposit, subject to status.
However, with FirstBuy limited to a selected number of new properties for sale in Basingstoke at Limes Park, interested first-time buyers are being urged to visit the development as soon as possible to give themselves the very best chance of taking advantage of this incredible incentive.
Tim Betts, Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey Hampshire, says: “Countless first-time buyers have been able to become homeowners after discovering how simple and affordable it is to purchase a property in Basingstoke with the help of FirstBuy.
“Due to the high demand, and the fact the initiative is limited to a selected number of plots at Limes Park, I would urge those who dream of owning their first home to get in touch straight away to avoid missing out.”
One of the stylish new homes available with FirstBuy at Limes Park is the two-bedroom Plot 266 ‘Atkins House’ apartment, which can be purchased by one lucky buyer for 80% of its £175,000 full price – that’s just £140,000, including a deposit of only £8,750.
Meanwhile, the two-bedroom Plot 269 ‘Atkins House’ apartment, priced £177,000, is also available for an 80% FirstBuy price of £141,600, including a deposit of just £8,850.
Both of these stunning apartments feature a light and airy kitchen/dining/living room, an en-suite master bedroom, a second well-proportioned bedroom, and a main bathroom, plus allocated parking outside.
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.
Alternatively, there’s a superb selection of three and four-bedroom houses available to purchase at Limes Park from only £220,000.
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.
Limes Park is located on the north-western fringes of Basingstoke with the town centre just two miles from the development.
The town is home to a choice of music venues, multi-screen cinemas, tennis courts, a leisure park, sports clubs, an ice rink, a swimming pool and bowling alleys. Meanwhile, the open countryside is just a stone’s throw away, offering nature trails and opportunities for woodland walks and cycling.
To be in with a chance of securing an apartment with FirstBuy at Limes Park, first-time buyers should visit the Sales Information Centre, located off Peggs Way, Park Village, Basingstoke, and open seven days a week from 10.30am to 5.30pm. Alternatively, log onto taylorwimpey.co.uk/westlondon.
