First-time buyer success story at Chippenham’s Piazza

Contrary to the popular belief that first-time buyers are being priced out of the housing market, more than 70 per cent of sales at The Piazza, Barratt’s stylish new development in Chippenham, have been to buyers taking their first step onto the property ladder.

“We’ve enjoyed great success at The Piazza, with a record number of first-time buyers snapping up homes here, and many residents are now settling in,” reports Louise Ware, Barratt sales director.

“We have a variety of one, two and three-bedroom homes and first-time buyers have been astounded with the assistance that Barratt can offer – including help with deposits, legal fees and Stamp Duty.

“We are currently offering our Dream Start deal on the properties here,” she continued.

With the Dream Start deal, prices start from an amazing £116,250 so first time buyers literally cannot afford to pass it up. “Buyers only need to secure a mortgage for 75 per cent of the asking price and there’s no deposit, it’s just an unbelievable deal.”

Current availability at The Piazza includes a two-bedroom Milton apartment and a one-bedroom Coach House. Both come with a garage and parking space.

Terraced houses include the two-bedroom Roseberry with garage and the three-bedroom Brandon with garage and parking space.

“The Piazza homes are an excellent choice for young couple or friends who decide to buy together,” Louise added. “Our larger three-bedroom homes, like The Essex, are ideal for families and we can offer part-exchange to buyers moving up to a larger property.”

Chippenham is an old market town full of character, with an excellent range of shops, restaurants, bars and pavement cafes. Located close to countryside, historic houses and picturesque villages, it lies less than four miles from the M4, offering easy access to Swindon, Bristol and Bath.
