Heavenly homes found in Minster

It’s good news for househunters in Minster and the surrounding area as Persimmon Homes South East’s much anticipated new development has now launched. Heronsbrook in Minster offers househunters a diverse selection of properties to choose from including two bedroom apartments as well as two, three and four bedroom houses in both traditional two storey and contemporary three storey designs.

The homes have all been built sympathetically with the surrounding area and have been specifically designed to suit a wide variety of tastes and budgets.

Jason Stokes, sales director for Persimmon Homes South East, states: “Our launch weekend, which took place earlier this week, was a success among local people looking to buy. We received a lot of interest in the housetypes we currently have on offer, as potential purchasers are keen to secure their dream home at pre-showhome prices.”

Jason highlights the benefits of buying off plan at Heronsbrook: “By purchasing off plan, buyers are able to upgrade items in their chosen property from our Finishing Touches range as this can be carried out at build stage at a competitive cost – thus avoiding the expense and inconvenience of having builders in your home after you move in. Also, purchasers have the advantage of cherry picking the best plots, reserving the best homes fresh from the drawing board.”

Prices on the properties currently released at the development start from as little as £193,750 for a three bedroom semi detached Elmley design and as Persimmon is supporting the Government-led 70 per cent shared equity HomeBuy Direct scheme, purchasers could secure the same housetype for just £135,625!

Under the scheme, home buyers would own 100 per cent of their property, but just pay 70 per cent of the price. The remaining 30 per cent will be made up by an equity loan which is co-funded by the Government and Persimmon Homes. Households earning less than £60,000 who can not otherwise afford to purchase a suitable property unassisted on the open market will be eligible to apply.

Heronsbrook is set in the beautiful and historic village of Minster-in-Thanet. The centre hosts a range of local amenities including convenience shops, restaurants, pubs and cafés, a post office, local library, healthcare facilities and schools. A local supermarket is situated just a few miles away.

For those looking to commuter to further afield, neighbouring Margate, Ramsgate and Canterbury are a short drive away. Heronsbrook is also in close proximity to the M2, M20, M26 and M25 and via Minster’s own mainline train station London’s Charing Cross station is within easy reach.
