Live the high life on the green

Live the high life on the green If you're on the hunt for a new home designed and finished to a high standard and close to open greenery, look no further than St Paul's on-the-Green. Built by Charles Church, this development of two, three, four and five bedroom homes and one and two bedroom apartments boasts a great community feel, thanks to the village green right at its heart.

The advantages of having a village green as the centrepiece of the development are endless; a suitable place for children to play safely whilst not straying too far from home, the green could also be utilised as a generous space in which to walk your dog, take a jog or simply sit out in on a sunny day. Furthermore, the vast green garden provides a sense of unity to the homes surrounding it, as well as an attractive view for residents.

On offer at St Paul's on-the-Green are the homes within Flower Lodge, a unique collection of one and two bedroom apartments. A two bedroomed apartment located on the first floor, plot 61 would be a great choice to buy. The fully fitted kitchen which features double doors leading to the sizeable living/dining room incorporates integrated fridge/freezer, integrated washer/dryer and stainless steel oven, hob and extractor hood. In addition, a stainless steel one and a half bowl sink with chrome mixer tap, stainless steel splashback and laminate worktops are included. The master bedroom includes stylish wardrobes with a choice of sliding doors.

As well as being located in desirable surroundings, the Flower Lodge apartments are decorated beautifully, with finishes such as oak flush internal doors with chrome door furniture, smooth ceilings throughout and Gardenia emulsion to the walls. There is also a decorative cornice to the hall, lounge, dining room and master bedroom in each apartment. Flower Lodge has been designed with comfort and security in mind, with features including double glazed timber windows, a steel front door with multi point locking system and gas fired heating via radiators as standard in all apartments.

As if they weren't appealing enough already, Charles Church has ensured that these apartments can be incredibly affordable by taking advantage of the FairShare shared equity scheme. The scheme allows you to pay only 75 per cent of the cost of the property but own 100 per cent, with Charles Church providing the other 25 per cent of the cost. You then pay back the 25 per cent when you sell your home or after ten years, whichever is sooner. The price of plot 61 is therefore reduced to just £149,963 from £199,950 using the FairShare scheme, an absolute bargain for an apartment of such quality.

St Paul's on-the-Green is just a few minutes away from the traditional town centre of Haywards Heath where a good selection of large brand shops and small independent stores are located. Alluring features for potential purchasers will surely be the impressive choice of restaurants and pubs that can be found along the pavements of The Broadway, a nearby tree-lined avenue, and the golf club and leisure centre situated in the town.

The countryside surrounding Haywards Heath is amongst the most beautiful in Britain and begs to be explored. In terms of transport, the railway station is only half a mile away, with the city of London approximately 45 minutes away by train and Brighton only twelve miles away by road.

Prices at St Paul's on-the-Green start from £149,963 (with FairShare). For further information please visit the showhome and Marketing Suite, open daily between 10am and 5pm or log on to Charleschurch.com.
