Don’t delay visiting Taylor Wimpey’s Home of the Week
Are you looking to buy a home in Somerset but don’t know where to start? Then why not visit Taylor Wimpey’s Wembdon Grange development in Bridgwater and view its ‘Home of the week’, the Garsdale.
The spacious three bedroom house is perfect for those looking for modern living. The property comprises of an open plan kitchen/dining room with French doors leading out to the garden, a downstairs cloakroom for convenience and a spacious lounge.
Follow the stairs up to the first floor and you will find a master bedroom complete with an en suite shower room, a further double bedroom and a single bedroom, both serviced by a family bathroom. The Garsdale is priced from just £169,995.
Properties, such as The Garsdale, are now available on the Government’s new Help to Buy housing measures which aim to help over 75,000 buyers across the country purchase a new home.
Bettina Mahon, regional sales manager, said the new measures were good news for local buyers who could not otherwise afford to buy because of the large deposits required by mortgage lenders.
She commented: “We’ve seen some very positive signs that recovery in the housing market in Somerset is now underway and the measures announced by the Chancellor will go a long way towards boosting confidence and encouraging further improvement. Initiatives such as these really do make all the difference to those who thought home ownership was well out of their reach. We are delighted that we will now be able to offer the Government backed Help to Buy scheme on our developments across the region which will help prospective buyers make the move into their dream new home.
“We’ve had fantastic success with previous Government schemes such as NewBuy and FirstBuy; in fact in 2012 we supported 1,750 people across the UK buy a new home using the initiatives. The new Help to Buy scheme is sure to prove just as popular and will make a huge difference to both first and second time buyers who can afford the monthly repayments on a mortgage but not the hefty deposit.”
The proposed Help to Buy measures include an equity loan scheme which will be available on new build properties up to the value of £600,000. There is no salary cap for purchasers using the equity loan scheme, and it is available to both first time buyers and existing home owners alike. Eligible purchasers will receive a Government loan of 20%, which means that they only need to put down a 5% deposit and obtain a 75% loan-to-value mortgage.
Bettina added: “One of the many advantages of a new build property is that we can offer a variety of incentives and schemes suitable for all types of buyers. I’d urge anyone who wants to move but thinks they can’t afford the deposit or are having difficulty selling their existing home to visit one of our developments today. Our experienced sales executives will be able to talk you through the options and incentives available and you could be moving into your dream home before you know it.”
