Tonbridge show homes open the door to further sales

With four sales in just seven days, the opening of two new show homes in Tonbridge has been hailed a success.

Properties at Redrow’s Somerhill Green development are proving popular – 37 homes have been sold to date with 10 reservations made in the weeks since buyers have been able to view the show homes.

The properties are attracting a mix of purchasers, including first time buyers who have used the Government’s Help to Buy scheme to reduce the initial cost of homeownership.

With homes selling fast would-be homeowners are being urged to act now.

Rachael Baillie, sales director for Redrow Homes (South East), said: “The fact that our sales rate has increased since we opened the show homes at Somerhill Green demonstrates just how important being able to view a property is. Dozens of people visited the properties in the first few days and with the increase in enquiries we’ve also seen a surge in reservations. Demand remains high and we’re encouraging potential purchasers to contact us to discuss their options. Those saving for a deposit could find that Help to Buy gives them the boost they need to get onto the housing ladder.”

The three-bedroom Wey and four-bedroom Lea show homes are both set out over three floors. Dressed to impress by professional interior designers, they give visitors an insight into the high specification, quality and finish they can expect in a brand new Redrow home at Somerhill Green.

The popular development offers buyers plenty of choice with everything from one-bedroom apartments to substantial five-bedroom homes. Prices start from £255,995 and many of the designs fall within the £600,000 threshold for Help to Buy.

Using Help to Buy, a brand new home can be secured with a 5% deposit and 75% mortgage. The remaining 20% is covered by an equity loan, which is interest free for five years.

Situated to the south west of Tonbridge, with direct access to the A26 and A21, Somerhill Green is ideally placed to achieve the perfect work/life balance. London can be reached in less than 40 minutes by train from the local station, while the beautiful Kent countryside is also within easy reach. Closer to home, there’s great a selection of schools, shops and restaurants nearby.

The show homes at Somerhill Green are open daily from 10am to 5,30pm. For more information see redrow.co.uk/somerhill.
