Final few homes at landmark development in Chelmsford

Anyone looking to enjoy a great lifestyle at one of Chelmsford's smartest new addresses needs to act quickly. More than 90 per cent of homes at The Tower have now been sold, leaving just a few two-bedroom apartments available at this superb landmark development from Barratt Eastern Counties.

The remaining homes are priced from £174,995 and to help homebuyers Barratt is offering to pay five per cent towards a deposit. Alternatively you can take advantage of Barratt's Head Start scheme, which allows you to pay just 85 per cent of the selling price. The remaining 15 per cent is an interest-free loan that doesn't have to be repaid for ten years and the buyer owns 100 per cent of the property.

Adam Lawrence, Barratt Regional Managing Director London and Thames Gateway, comments: "The Tower has been a great success story with consistently strong demand. In the current economic climate, we know that some people are finding financing difficult, so as well as paying your deposit, we can refer you to our recommended independent financial advisors, who will help you secure the best mortgage for your circumstances. With all this support and low interest rates it's a great time to buy and I'd urge anyone interested to contact Barratt very soon to avoid missing out."

Since it was first launched, The Tower, a striking building soaring to 11 storeys, has attracted a great deal of attention and has been honoured by two visits from the Mayor of Chelmsford. It is now firmly established as a landmark in the town.

The Tower offers a fantastic lifestyle ideal for young professionals leading a busy life; with a concierge service, secure underground parking available and private gym for residents. Located within walking distance of the town centre, adjacent to the railway station and with shops and even a theatre on the doorstep, living here could not be more convenient. With Liverpool Street just 30 minutes away by train, residents of The Tower can enjoy a London-style lifestyle and quick access to the city, without the high cost of living in the capital.

A few of the remaining apartments are on the higher floors and enjoy far reaching views across the town. The interior design is sharply modern with a large open-plan living/dining/kitchen space that is filled with light from floor-to-ceiling windows and French doors that open on to a balcony. Both the bedrooms are generous doubles and there are two bathrooms, one of which one is en-suite to the master bedroom.

Flooring is included throughout and the sleek kitchens are fully fitted with an integrated fridge/freezer and washer/drier so they are ready to move into right away. There are still limited parking spaces available so hurry!
