Save thousands on a new home at Mirage in Welwyn Garden City

The Howard at Mirage

Home-hunters have a chance to save themselves thousands of pounds if they snap up a stylish townhouse at Mirage, Taylor Wimpey’s sought-after development in Welwyn Garden City.

The stunning three-bedroom ‘Howard’ is on sale now from only £289,950 and benefits from a contemporary design, with a spacious three-storey layout that more than meets the demands of modern family lifestyles.

What’s more, the leading housebuilder will pick up the 3% stamp duty bill on selected ‘Howard’ properties – that’s up to £8,699!

Christine Scarborough, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “Stamp duty can be a significant financial outlay, particularly for home-seekers looking for properties priced above the £250,000 threshold where the tax jumps from 1% to 3% of the sale price.

“With the Stamp Duty Paid incentive we are offering at Mirage, the lucky customers who snap up a ‘Howard’ can look forward to having plenty of spare cash on hand, which could be spent on furnishing their new home or on a well-deserved holiday.”

The ‘Howard’ features a light and airy living room opening through French doors to the private rear garden, plus a contemporary kitchen/dining room and a guest cloakroom off the entrance hallway.

Upstairs, the first-floor landing leads to two well-proportioned bedrooms and a main bathroom, while an en-suite master bedroom and study can be found on the top floor. The property also benefits from allocated parking outside.

Alternatively, a two-bedroom coach house-style apartment is also available at Mirage for only £199,950.

All new homes at the development are completed to a high standard specification, including central heating, double glazing and fitted kitchen with integrated oven, hob and hood.

Mirage enjoys a convenient location close to the tree-lined boulevards of Welwyn Garden City’s neo-Georgian town centre. The town boasts a large John Lewis and the Howard Centre indoor shopping mall as well as a wealth of restaurants, entertainment and leisure facilities.

Just 25 miles north of central London, Welwyn Garden City is an ideal spot for commuters looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the city, as well as for parents looking for a peaceful but well-appointed place to raise their families. There are many schools within close proximity of the new development, providing education for children of all ages.

Mirage also benefits from exceptional transport links, with Welwyn Garden City railway station just a stone’s throw away for regular services to London King’s Cross in under 30 minutes, while Junction 4 of the A1(M) is within two miles of the new homes and the M25 is just 11 miles away.

To find out more about securing the stunning ‘Howard’ for less at Mirage, property-seekers should visit the development located off Broadwater Road, Welwyn Garden City, AL7 3BQ, and open Thursday to Sunday from 10am to 5.30pm and Mondays from 2pm to 5.30pm.
