Home sales take stunning Staffs by storm

Customers just can’t keep their hands off George Wimpey North Midlands’ superb collection of properties at Farriers Keep in Newcastle-under-Lyme. Since the beginning of 2008, homes have already been snapped up by eager house-hunters, keen to live in a popular, vibrant town, yet on the edge of the Staffordshire countryside – the perfect location for families, commuters and country-lovers.

And now buy-to-let investors can also grab a great deal – those reserving a new home at Farriers Keep before 30 April 2008can enjoy a gross rental income of 6% of the purchase price guaranteed until 2012.

The offer aims to make it simple for would-be landlords to enter the buy-to-let market, while George Wimpey’s approved letting agents make life even easier by finding a tenant for them – and they’ll still receive monthly rental payments, even if their property is empty.

This spring customers can choose from a selection of new homes, including the four-bedroom ‘Heath’ townhouse, priced at £199,995.

An example of the sought-after homes available, The ‘Heath’, features a combined kitchen/breakfast room with French doors to the rear garden, a guest cloakroom and a spacious entrance hallway.

A large lounge with a Juliet balcony, the fourth bedroom and a family bathroom can be found on the first floor.

The top floor accommodation comprises a spacious master bedroom with en-suite facilities and built-in wardrobes, and two further bedrooms.

The property also benefits from an integral garage, and like all homes at the development, the ‘Heath’ enjoys a high standard specification, including gas central heating and double glazing.

Customers can also choose from the three-bedroom ‘Brooke’ at £202,500, and the five-bedroom ‘Tollerton’ and ‘Ashleigh’ designs priced from £339,995.

Farriers Keep is situated to the west of Newcastle-under-Lyme town centre, within easy reach of variety of local amenities including a shopping centre and a golf club.

The town is home to a wide choice of leisure amenities, health facilities, schools and nurseries, while Stoke-on-Trent, which offers a vast array of bars, restaurants, theatres and nightlife, is just a 10-minute drive from the development.

Commuters will also appreciate that the M6 motorway is just a few minutes away, putting Manchester and Birmingham within easy reach.

George Wimpey offers a range of deals tailor-made for all types of buyers, and for those with a property to sell, the leading housebuilder’s easymover programme offers a range of attractive incentives on selected properties.
