Apartments at Speakman Gardens

Following the First Time Buyer Show last month, house hunters in Prescot have been flocking to Taylor Wimpey North West’s Speakman Gardens development, where eight homes have been snapped up in the last few weeks.

The housebuilder has released a block of apartments to meet the demand in the first time buyer market. In addition Taylor Wimpey can now offer these homes under the new Government backed Help to Buy scheme, where eligible purchasers can get a 20% equity loan, meaning they only need to secure a 75% mortgage and pay a deposit of 5%.

Lynne Vogel, regional sales manager for Taylor Wimpey North West, said: “Sales at Speakman Gardens have been phenomenal these past few weeks, with people coming to site after meeting us at the First Time Buyer Show. We’re also delighted to be offering the new Help to Buy scheme on site, making it easier for young people to secure an affordable mortgage and get their first foot on the property ladder.”

The new Hayle and Kingsbridge apartments consist of open plan kitchen/dining/living rooms, two bedrooms, a main bathroom, plus the master bedroom has the luxury of an en-suite. There is also allocated parking. Apartments start at £89,995 or £71,996 with Help to Buy, which equates to mortgage payments of £282.69 per month.

Also available at the development on Steley Way is the three bedroom Bancroft. Another home ideal for first time buyers, the ground floor features a kitchen and open plan living/dining area with French doors to the rear garden, while the downstairs cloakroom and under stairs storage cupboard provide additional practical touches. Upstairs there are three bedrooms. The master bedroom has en suite facilities and there is a family bathroom. The Bancroft is available for £149,995 or £119,996 with Help to Buy

Speakman Gardens is ideally located just a short walk from the high street shops of Prescott and Liverpool is just eight miles away offering a wider range of shops, leisure activities and nightlife.
