City style living with an affordable price tag

From spacious apartments to contemporary three-bedroom houses, visitors to City East will find contemporary, good-looking homes without the city centre price tag.

The popularity of Gleeson Homes’ striking development continues unabated with a range of three-bedroom houses now leading the way and the opportunity to own a fashionable home for just 75% of the asking price.

On selected plots only, homebuyers can defer 25% of the cost of their new home for up to 10 years - with no interest or rent to pay. That means buyers only need apply for a 75% mortgage and should have access to some of the best deals around without having to put down a sizeable deposit.

Julie Rayner, sales director for Gleeson Homes, says: “Shared equity at City East is perfect for those who haven’t saved a large deposit but don’t want to miss out on one of these sought-after brand new homes. And they have up to 10 years before they need to pay back the outstanding amount, so they can wait until a time that suits them without worrying about any mounting interest.”

Every home at City East has been designed with originality and imagination to suit the demands of modern life. The location in Beswick is perfect for those in search of a contemporary home close to Manchester’s vibrant city centre; and Gleeson has created an inspiring place to live, with a choice of apartments, townhouses and detached homes in an area of the city that is moving towards a bright future.

The prices are also pretty inspirational, with three-bedroom townhouses from just £110,996 through the shared equity scheme. On limited plots there’s also the chance to ‘move in for just £99’, with carpets, lighting fittings and blinds all included, plus £500 towards legal fees.

Also just released is the next phase of contemporary apartments with prices from as little as £89,995 for a one-bedroom property; and from £104,995 for a stylish two-bedroom duplex design with its spacious accommodation arranged over two floors.

Gleeson can also help make it easier to get onto the property ladder with some great deals and access to independent financial advisers for free and impartial mortgage advice.

City East is part of the New East Manchester regeneration scheme, which is investing more than £250 million to transform the area into an exciting community with new homes, shops and schools. The development benefits from great public transport links and is ideally situated just off the A635, with easy access for commuters to the city centre and to the M60.

Shared equity from Gleeson Homes is available on selected plots at City East and the outstanding amount is paid back at market value at the time of repayment. For more information, visit gleeson-homes.co.uk.
