Aquamarine offers a stylish bijou abode

Many house-hunters aren’t looking for a place with more space – and for those seeking a more bijou abode, George Wimpey’s ‘Aquamarine’ at the Marnel Park development in Basingstoke is an absolute must-see.

Boasting the modern comforts of a brand new property, this one-bedroom, two-storey layout is ideal for couples and individuals who want a simple home to suit their needs.

Priced from only £131,995, the ‘Aquamarine’ is characterised by a quirky ‘upside-down’ interior design, with the light and airy open-plan kitchen/living room on the top floor, while the ground floor comprises a double bedroom and a shower room.

The living areas benefit from an attractive Juliet balcony and the kitchen is fitted with stylish units and a built-in oven, hob and hood. Outside there is an allocated parking space.

Regional Sales and Marketing Director for George Wimpey, Tim Betts, says: “The ‘Aquamarine’ design is extremely popular with those who want a cosy place to relax and enjoy a fabulous location in Basingstoke.

“This home is ideal for busy people who want to spend their spare time having fun, not looking after a large house, and it’s also a great choice for first-time buyers.

“We have an excellent range of incentives to help first-time buyers make their move to Marnel Park, including assistance with their deposit and legal fees – and all they need to do is come along and talk to us!”

Incentives include George Wimpey’s Deposit Match scheme, which helps purchasers double their deposit to up to 10% of the purchase price, reducing their mortgage and giving them a greater choice of lenders.

Alternatively, the leading housebuilder’s Easymover scheme provides a range of incentives for home-owners, including assistance with marketing an existing property and the estate agent’s fees paid.

Incentives can be tailored to homebuyers’ circumstances and are subject to availability. Further details are available from the Sales Executive.

Marnel Park enjoys an excellent location on the northern edge of Basingstoke, providing easy access to both town and countryside. The town centre and the impressive Festival Place shopping centre are just 10 minutes from the development by road and blend historical influences with bustling modern shops, cafes, bars and exciting leisure pursuits.

Basingstoke is also home to popular music venues, a choice of multi-screen cinemas, tennis courts, a leisure park, sports clubs, an ice rink, a swimming pool and bowling alleys. The open countryside is just a stone’s throw away, with great opportunities for woodland walks, running and cycling.

Marnel infant and junior schools are within easy walking distance of the new homes, while commuters will appreciate the M3 is just three miles away, and London Waterloo just 45 minutes by rail.
