Where will you be living in 2010?

With its stock of homes already all sold out for 2009, leading house-builder George Wimpey North Midlands is offering excellent deals on homes purchased off-plan at its Earls Meadow development in Wem, Shropshire.

Customers can currently choose from a selection of stunning one-bedroom apartments starting from only £97,950 and two-bedroom houses from £117,950 –superb prices which can be secured now before the market picks up again.

Daniel McGowan, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “With our allocation of homes for 2009 already snapped up by savvy buyers, there are sure signs that confidence is returning to the property market, meaning that now really is a good time for people to reserve a new home.

“In addition to our range of incentives to help first-time buyers step onto the property ladder, our customers will secure their apartment or house for a fixed price, even if properties of the same design rise in value before moving day arrives.”

According to Nationwide, house prices rose 1.3% in July – the fourth time in six months – yet quick-off-the-mark movers can still take advantage of property prices that are an average 6.2% lower than this time last year*.

Among the homes available to purchase off-plan at Earls Meadow is the stylish one-bedroom ‘Elm’ apartment, comprising a well-proportioned bedroom, a light and airy living room, a contemporary fitted kitchen and a modern bathroom, while outside there is an allocated parking space.

Alternatively, the ‘Ashby’ is a superb terraced house with an attractive kitchen, a living/dining room opening through doors to the rear garden and a cloakroom off the entrance hallway. Upstairs the delightful accommodation comprises two bedrooms and a bathroom.

All new homes available at Earls Meadow enjoy a specification which includes gas central heating, double glazing and a fully fitted kitchen with built-in oven, hob and hood.

By choosing their home before it has been built, purchasers can also select their flooring and carpets, kitchen finishes and appliances, showers, tiling, bathroom suites and lighting. Because many options are built in as each property is constructed, the earlier a property is reserved, the more choices there are.

Earls Meadow is a superb mixed development in a village location, ideal for young families searching for extra space for their growing family, those looking to move up the property ladder or for downsizers simply looking to locate to a more affordable new home in a friendly community.

Wem has shops catering for everyday needs on the doorstep and ample shopping, sports and leisure facilities available at nearby Shrewsbury and Telford.

For children, Wem is home to a primary and a secondary school with sixth-form, while commuters will appreciate the town’s railway station provides services to Shrewsbury and Crewe.
