Ideal solutions for first-time buyers in West Heath

Securing that first foot on the property ladder is now more affordable than ever for home-seekers in West Heath, thanks to a new initiative from Barratt. The award-winning house builder has devised a special package which aims to make the buying process as easy as possible for first-time buyers at its Westminster Place development.

Here, Barratt will help towards purchase costs when buying a new home. And to ease the financial strain even further, Westminster Place has been designated an affordable housing scheme, enabling purchasers to buy 70% of the property, without the need to pay rent on the remainder.

David Child, sales director of Barratt West Midlands, says “Rising interest rates and property prices mean it’s becoming more and more difficult for first-time buyers to make that initial home purchase – which is why we’ve decided to lend a helping hand. We’re committed to making home ownership available to the widest audience possible and will do all we can to help people achieve it”.

Westminster Place features a varied selection of one and two bedroom apartments and is situated on Alvechurch Road in West Health, close to a wide range of amenities. It is also ideally located within easy travelling distance of the M5 and M42 motorways.

All apartments are equipped with fitted kitchens and stylish bathrooms. Two bedroom apartments also feature en-suite bathrooms to master bedrooms. Energy-efficient heating and double-glazing ensure that fuel bills are kept to a minimum, whilst all properties are covered by a 10-year NHBC warranty. Prices start from just £104,950.

The sales office is open Thursday to Sunday from 11 am until 6 pm. For further information visit Barratthomes.co.uk/westminsterplace.
