Why rent when buying could save you money? If you think buying a stylish new apartment in Chippenham is out of your budget, think again. At Market Quarter you could be living in your own pad for as little as £455*a month thanks to Linden Homes Western’s Easy Start* scheme.

New homes in this area like the ones at Market Quarter are currently renting for around £625 a month so you could be saving yourself £170 a month on rent.

Unlike shared ownership schemes, you’ll own 100% of your home for 80% of the price and you won’t have to pay any rent or interest on the remaining 20% for 3 years. Easy Start has already helped a host of buyers, above all first-time buyers, purchase a new home built by Linden Homes. But with limited availability you’ll have to act quickly.

There are several apartments ready for immediate occupation so you could be in your brand new home this summer.

Ideal for first-time buyers, downsizers and professionals, the collection of contemporary 2 bedroom apartments at Market Quarter offers stylish, low maintenance accommodation. Rated as ‘EcoExcellent’ by an independent assessor, home owners can also rest assured that they are doing their bit for the environment without having to compromise on comfort.

Each of the apartments comprises a generous open-plan lounge and dining room with an adjoining kitchen, two good-sized bedrooms and a family bathroom. Most of the apartments also have an en-suite to the master bedroom.

Add to this the great location and it’s hardly surprising that Market Quarter has already proven popular. Chippenham’s historic town centre is just a short walk away offering a range of high street shops, independent boutiques, welcoming pubs and restaurants.

Commuters will find that travel links are first rate with the nearby M4 motorway providing easy access to Bristol, South Wales and London. Meanwhile, Chippenham train station is within walking distance and provides direct services to Bath in 15 minutes, Bristol Temple Meads in 30 minutes and London Paddington in just 1 hour and 20 minutes**. For travel abroad Bristol International Airport is around 25 miles distant.

In addition to the 2 bedroom apartments, there are also three 3 and 4 bedroom houses remaining, ideal for families looking for a new home in this family-friendly location.

Prices start from just £129,995 for a 2 bedroom apartment. See these fantastic properties for yourself - visit the Sales and Marketing Suite, open daily, 10am – 5pm, or log on to lindenhomes.co.uk for more information.
