Last homes give dream start in Tunbridge Wells

The last apartments at Barratt Kent's Connaught Park in Royal Tunbridge Wells will shortly be released for sale. The exciting news for first-time buyers is that Barratt is offering its special Dream Start incentive on these homes, allowing you to buy a brand new one or two-bedroom apartment for only 75 per cent of the price, or as little as £121,875.

Dream Start buyers still own 100 per cent of their new property. The remaining 25 per cent is an interest-free loan that can be repaid at any time within ten years, or when the apartment is sold.

Barratt is hosting a cocktail party at Connaught Park on Thursday 18th September, from 4pm to 9pm, where prospective buyers can learn more about Dream Start and also have the first pick of the new apartments. There's an extra bonus if you reserve an apartment before Sunday 21st September: a fantastic 37" LCD screen TV, which will be included with your new home.

Adam Lawrence, Regional Managing Director of Barratt London and Thames Gateway, says: "Dream Start is an outstanding opportunity for first-time buyers and shouldn't be missed. We appreciate the difficulties of the current market and have many ways to support all homebuyers. I would urge anyone interested to visit us at Connaught Park to hear how we can help."

Connaught Park is an attractive Georgian-style development of one and two-bedroom apartments, in a beautifully landscaped, wooded setting around one mile from the centre of Tunbridge Wells. The last apartments are housed in Magenta Court, which overlooks woodland.

Apartments are ultra modern, light and airy, with a large open-plan living/dining area, ideal for entertaining, and a smart fitted kitchen. Each comes with an allocated parking space.

Connaught Park also offers a great lifestyle. Tunbridge Wells has plenty of character from its Georgian heyday, combined with great modern facilities. The Royal Victoria Place Shopping Centre has over a hundred high street names and there's a string of wine bars, clubs and restaurants in the town centre. Just minutes from Connaught Park are modern gyms and a nine-screen Odeon cinema.

Commuting to London is quick and easy; from High Brooms station, a short walk away, regular direct services to London Bridge take just 40 minutes. Road links are excellent, with the A21 leading to junction 5 of the M25 in around 15 miles. Gatwick Airport is approximately 35 miles away.

Apartments are priced from £162,500 for a one-bedroom apartment and from £197,995 for a two-bedroom apartment. Two show apartments are open for viewing.
