Final phase launches at property hot spot

The final phase of Crest Nicholson’s development, The Beacon in Hindhead has been launched, offering home buyers a picturesque and sought after location in the magnificent Surrey Hills. With 70 per cent of this popular gated development already sold, the final phase has been released to meet this continued demand.

The development comprises an attractive mix of two and three bedroom apartments all set within 6.4 acres of beautiful mature landscaped gardens with three tennis courts, private underground parking and a seven hole golfing green.

Ideally located in an exclusive country estate, rich in wildlife and woodland, the homes have been designed to enhance their exceptional setting and, beyond the development’s wide, sweeping lawns and verdant parkland, lay the breathtaking views of Surrey's areas of outstanding beauty. The Devil’s Punchbowl, a large natural amphitheatre and beauty spot of heathland, streams and woodland is only a short stroll away.

Pippa Bugby, Sales and Marketing Director at Crest Nicholson (South) Ltd. commented: “Homes at The Beacon have already proven popular with a wide range of buyers including downsizers, couples and first time buyers looking for a more peaceful style of living, yet without losing the connectivity or access to key local amenities. The release of the final phase presents the perfect opportunity for buyers to come and see what is on offer at this development which sits in a highly convenient and accessible location, yet provides a perfect country retreat.”

There is a wealth of local amenities in the village of Hindhead, with excellent road links that will be improved further in 2011 with the construction of the new A3 Hindhead tunnel. The pretty town of Haslemere, with its cobbled streets and selection of eateries, is only five miles away and Guildford, 15 miles from the development, offers leisure facilities and an array of restaurants and bars.

In addition to The Beacon’s private leisure facilities, other outdoor pursuits available locally include cycling, horse riding and sailing at Frensham Ponds. There are several excellent golf clubs to choose from, while Spectrum leisure centre at Guildford and Grayshott Hall, a renowned luxury spa are within easy reach.

Incentives currently available at The Beacon include recently launched SmoothMove and HomeBuy Direct. SmoothMove helps buyers who haven’t yet sold their existing home to move in the current climate. This scheme enables buyers to reserve a new home with the knowledge that Crest Nicholson will work closely with their estate agent to manage the sale of the existing property. In addition, purchasers who take advantage of this attractive scheme benefit from estate agents fees and HIPs costs being paid.

HomeBuy Direct is a brand new initiative designed to be a ‘stepping stone’ to home ownership. With the scheme, first-time buyers are able to secure a brand new home at The Beacon, at just 70% of property’s asking price upfront, making a two bedroom apartment at The Beacon priced at £229,950 an affordable £160,965 with HomeBuy Direct.

Prices at The Beacon start from £229,950 for a two bedroom apartment. All the stunning homes are now completed and ready for occupation, with carpets and contemporary flooring fitted throughout.
