Move up the housing ladder with Barratt and Help to Buy in Somerset

Buyers looking to move up the housing ladder in Somerset can now take advantage of the government’s Help to Buy scheme at Barratt’s Willow Brook development in Midsomer Norton.

Those looking for something larger can choose a three or four bedroom home and need just a five per cent deposit to make that move.

The Willow Brook development, which is just eight miles from the thriving city of Bath offers a range of detached and semi-detached homes, ideal for people looking to move into a bigger property.

With Help to Buy, those who already own a home can secure a 20 per cent equity loan from the Government, with no interest payable for the first five years after putting down just a five per cent deposit on a new build home.

Barratt sales director Andrea Pilgrim said Midsomer Norton is a perfect location for families with a range of both primary and secondary schools where pupils achieve above the national average as well as being within striking distance of both Bath and Bristol for commuters.

"Willow Brook is a perfect development for buyers looking for a combination of a family home together with excellent local amenities and with the availability of Help to Buy it is now even easier for buyers to take their next step on the housing ladder."

For information about current availability of the range of homes at Willow Brook, the showhomes are open daily from 11am until 6pm, or log onto barratthomes.co.uk.
