Get 'Help to Buy' a new home at The Firs, Priors Green
Discerning home-buyers have been flocking to Taylor Wimpey’s popular The Firs, Priors Green development in Little Canfield, Essex, where the range of options means there’s something for everyone!
A wide selection of properties and homebuying incentives to suit every type of buyer combined with an idyllic, yet well-connected location, means the development is in-demand with savvy property-seekers.
Now, The Firs’ popularity is set to grow even further with the introduction of the Government’s brand new Help to Buy shared equity scheme, which enables first-time buyers and existing homeowners to secure their new home for as little as 80% of its full price, including a 5% deposit.
The four-bedroom ‘Kempsford’ semi-detached house at The Firs, for example, can be secured under Help to Buy for a shared equity price of just £219,996 (full price £274,995), including a 5% deposit as low as £13,750.
Michael O’Leary, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “The Firs is proving to be irresistible to a wide variety of property-seekers, thanks to the winning combination of high-quality homes, great-value prices and helpful homebuyer incentives – including the brand new Help to Buy shared equity scheme.
“Help to Buy 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.
“We’ve already received a great deal of interest in the scheme and so anyone hoping to take advantage of this incredible initiative should act now – or risk missing out!”
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.
The Help to Buy shared equity scheme involves a Government loan of up to 20% and is available on new-build properties up to the value of £600,000. There is no salary cap for purchasers using the scheme.
Alternative homebuyer incentives currently available at The Firs include NewBuy, which makes 95% mortgages available to creditworthy purchasers in a variety of circumstances. Easymover, meanwhile, sees Taylor Wimpey find a buyer for a customer’s property in just a few weeks, while Part Exchange is also available.
Incentives can be tailored to customers’ individual circumstances and are subject to availability, with full details available from the Sales Executive.
Located in the established new village development of Priors Green, The Firs nestles amid open countryside and mature woodland on the fringes of Little Canfield.
A new community centre, a nursery and a primary school have already been built at Priors Green, while new local shops in the heart of the village will be ready soon.
The larger village of Great Dunmow is just four miles away for a wider choice of wonderful shops and speciality stores plus pubs, restaurants, cafés and bars. It also boasts its own leisure centre and swimming pool, parks and children’s play areas, tennis courts, bowling greens and riverside walks.
The new homes are served by excellent transport links, with the M11 just over three miles away, while rail and coach connections – as well as international flights – are provided at Stansted Airport, less than two miles from the development, putting central London and Cambridge within an easily commutable distance.
