More home for your money in Darwen

If you are looking for good value new homes in Lancashire why not consider Darwen? This historic mill town is currently going through a revival.

Situated in the foothills of the Pennines, the town is benefiting from extensive investment and new housing developments that are attracting home buyers because of the location and value.

Miller Homes, one of the UK’s largest house builders recognised Darwen’s potential back in 2006 when it opened its Woodland Park development. This new residential community has matured beautifully and in its latest phase offers some of the hottest properties in the town. Woodland Park is located approximately 600m from the railway station and 800m from the attractive Market Hall and town centre.

Miller Homes is also making house buying in Darwen even more affordable, with the introduction of the Government backed HomeBuy Direct (HDB) scheme. HBD gives buyers that qualify the opportunity to buy a new home for a minimum of 70% of the price now. The remaining 30% is equally funded by Miller Homes and the Government with an equity loan.

The beauty of this scheme is that the equity loan is only repayable after 25 years and there is no interest payable on the equity loan for the first 5 years.

Using HBD a new 2 bedroom apartment at Woodland Park, priced at £79,995 is available through the scheme for just £55,997 now, making owning your own home more affordable than you might think and a better prospect than renting a flat or bed-sit. New releases at Woodland Park offer a choice of 2 bedroom apartments, 2 and 3 bedroom mews homes.
