Building to meet demand in Gloucester

Despite the current concerns about investing in the property market, Charles Church are still building - and still selling - at The Marketplace in Gloucester. This prestigious housebuilder has experienced steady sales at this location and the impressive homes and low prices ensure that this will continue. Prospective purchasers should hurry to take advantage of all that Charles Church has to offer.

The Marketplace is a development of one, two and three bedroom apartments, each benefiting from a parking space. The superior specification of these homes includes stainless steel NEFF appliances to the kitchen, fitted wardrobes to the master bedrooms and balconies to a selection of the upper floor apartments.

Charles Church is offering their FairShare shared equity scheme at The Marketplace, meaning that purchasers only need to pay 75 per cent of the cost of their new home, with Charles Church providing the remaining 25 per cent. The purchaser owns 100 per cent of their new home and only has to pay this money back after ten years or when they move. Using this scheme, plot 50, a two bedroom apartment at The Marketplace featuring fitted carpets is reduced in price from £129,995 to just £97,496.

As well as the impressive build quality of the apartments and the low cost under the FairShare scheme, perhaps the excellent central location of The Marketplace has been a factor in the development's appeal to purchasers. The surrounding retail park provides residents with amenities including a sports centre and gym, numerous shops, restaurants, a supermarket and a bank. Gloucester itself is home to a wide variety of eateries and bars, as well as entertainment opportunities including cinema and theatre venues. Commuters will welcome the direct rail links to London Paddington and Reading and the close proximity of the M5 motorway.

Prices at The Marketplace start from £89,996 using the FairShare shared equity scheme. For further information log on to Charleschurch.com.
