High style at High Beeches

Sales negotiator Christine Hunt has some fantastic incentives for house-hunters seeking an apartment. With several high-specification two-bedroom homes ready to move into now, there has never been a better time to buy at Barratt Manchester's High Beeches development in Sharston.

And with Barratt's Head Start scheme available to key workers and first time buyers, there are considerable savings to be made.

"Some of the properties now on release overlook the landscaped communal courtyard with its ambient lighting and stunning water feature," says Christine. "These are really special apartments with some unique features such as floor to ceiling windows - they are quite inspirational."

The development has great road links to the motorway network and is within a few minutes' drive of Manchester International Airport.

And with security gates and video entry systems, there is the added ‘lock up and leave' element - meaning additional peace of mind for those having to travel for business on a regular basis.

Some of the properties are also available under the Head Start scheme, which means first time buyers and key workers can own 100 per cent of a new home for just 85 per cent. The remaining 15 per cent only becomes payable when the apartment is sold, transferred or after 10 years, which is soonest, and is calculated on the value of the property at that time.

The apartments, which all have an en suite shower to the master bedroom, and offer a full-fitted kitchen with integrated dishwasher, washer-dryer and fridge freezer.

The apartments are on release from £154,050.

The sales office at the development off Freshpool Way, Sharston is usually open seven days a week, 11am-6pm or visit Barratthomes.co.uk.
