An opportunity to get on the property ladder

With the Nationwide reporting a rise in house prices for the second time in three months,* the housing market is showing small signs of improvement so prospective first time buyers are being encouraged to buy now to avoid missing out.

The region’s leading housebuilder, David Wilson South Midlands, has a number of properties ideal for first time buyers across it developments and one such example is the three- bedroom Shelburne style at Oxley Village in Milton Keynes where just one of this house type remains unsold.

Jackie Day, Sales Director at David Wilson comments “Priced at £194,995, the Shelburne offers good value for money and an ideal opportunity for prospective homeowners to get a foot on the ladder.”

The Shelburne is a three- bedroom home which provides open plan living that gives a great feeling of space and modernity. The ground floor comprises a large lounge, sociable kitchen/dining area with French doors that lead onto the garden. The first floor comprises three bedrooms, the master of which benefits from an en-suite, plus a family bathroom.

Jackie adds “This is a charming property ideal for couples and professionals and its open plan design gives this traditional home a modern twist. Buyers can also take advantage of one of the great deals we’re currently offering including five per cent deposit paid which can help first time buyers who do not have a big enough mortgage saved.

“As a division we’ve witnessed increased sales activity during the spring period and at Oxley Village alone we’ve achieved nine reservations in the past four weeks which is a fantastic result which hopefully marks a slight recovery in the housing market. With just one Shelburne left on the market at Oxley Village, I’m encouraging anyone contemplating making the move into home ownership to do it now.”

Oxley Village offers a superb selection of three-, four- and six- bedroom homes in a pleasant, newly established residential area. The development itself benefits from a number of local amenities including shops, schools and a dental surgery but with Milton Keynes just a short distance away, Oxley Village is within easy reaching distance of the plethora of facilities this modern city has to offer.
