Secure a new apartment at Peninsula with Help to Buy

Homebuyers have a superb chance to step on – or up – the property ladder for less at Peninsula, Taylor Wimpey’s popular development in Dovercourt, Essex.
There’s a wonderful choice of newly-released apartments now available to reserve at this sought-after seaside development – and the Government’s new Help to Buy shared equity scheme makes securing one of these great-value homes even more affordable!
Help to Buy enables homebuyers to secure stylish one and two-bedroom apartments at Peninsula for just 80% of their full price – including a 5% deposit.
For example, the stunning one-bedroom ‘Maldon’ apartment at Peninsula can be secured under Help to Buy for an 80% shared equity price of just £64,796 (full price £80,995) including a 5% deposit as low as £4,050.
Alternatively, there’s a choice of two-bedroom apartment designs – the ‘Kirby’, the ‘Frinton’, the ‘Oakley’ and the ‘Walton’ – available at the development from £91,995 (Help to Buy shared equity prices from £73,596).
Stacy Dornan, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “Help to Buy is the perfect solution for would-be buyers who are struggling to step on or up the property ladder.
“This superb scheme makes it possible to secure an apartment for less at Peninsula and then enjoy the benefits of lower monthly mortgage repayments – and life in this wonderful seaside location!”
Each apartment benefits from a spacious open-plan lounge/kitchen/dining room, good-sized bedrooms and a main bathroom, with selected plots benefiting from en-suite master bedrooms and Juliet or full-size balconies with stunning vistas across the estuary.
The homes also include allocated parking outside and are completed to a high standard specification, including energy efficient central heating, double glazing and a fitted kitchen with integrated oven, hob and hood.
Visitors to Peninsula will soon be able to experience for themselves what life could be like for them at this in-demand development when the stylish new show apartment opens its doors later this summer.
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.
The NewBuy initiative, meanwhile, gives credit-worthy purchasers in a variety of circumstances the chance to access their ideal home with a 95% mortgage.
Peninsula offers homebuyers an enviable lifestyle close to Blue Flag beaches, a wealth of restaurants, bars and cafes, a weekly market and monthly farmers’ market plus a great choice of shops, including an Asda supermarket on the doorstep.
In addition to windsurfing and a wide range of watersports, Dovercourt Leisure Centre in Low Road offers a swimming pool and solarium, fitness suite and floodlit pitch, while there are also local facilities for football, rugby, cricket and tennis.
Walking trails provide the chance to explore the nearby woodlands and meadows, while the country lanes and shoreline also make for perfect cycling.
Commuters will appreciate that Dovercourt Railway Station is only half a mile from home, offering regular services to Colchester in 30 minutes, Chelmsford in 60 minutes, and London Liverpool Street in 90 minutes. Road links are also excellent, with the A120 to Colchester close by, and Stansted Airport only 50 miles away.
