Charles Church commits to first time buyers

Following on from the successful launch of Charles Church’s family homes at the prestigious Barnwood Drive development in the sought-after Barnwood area of Gloucester, the company has now launched a range of impressive one bedroom homes to suit the first time buyer market.

Alison Reading, sales director for Charles Church, states: “Given the current market conditions, first time buyers are forgiven for being a little more than cautious about buying their first house, but at our Barnwood Drive development our latest release of competitively priced properties means that now really is the best time to buy.”

The one bedroom Romsey housetype consists of an entrance hallway, spacious lounge with adjacent kitchen and dining area and cloakroom on the ground floor, while upstairs hosts the master bedroom and sizeable bathroom. The Romsey is priced at £112,500 and on selected plots Charles Church is willing to pay the five per cent deposit for first time buyers, making it an affordable option for first time buyers looking to move to the desirable location of Barnwood.

Alison concludes: “At Charles Church we are renowned for building luxury high specification homes in highly sought-after locations and we don’t believe this exclusivity should just be reserved for just those with a high disposable income, which is why we are building our range of one bedroom homes to suit first time buyers at Barnwood Drive.”

The development is situated on the outskirts of Gloucester’s thriving city centre. Barnwood Drive’s residents will be able to take advantage of being situated close to local and high street shops, restaurants, cafés and entertainment venues. Gloucester boasts a number of highly regarded schools for all ages and the city also hosts Gloucester University for those with older children.

Gloucester is excellently located for those looking to commute as the M5 and the A40 are in proximity. The development is also conveniently located near to the main bus route to both Gloucester and Cheltenham’s city centre, which is just a 20 minute bus ride away. Those looking to use the rail network can take advantage of the city’s superb services, which mean that Birmingham is merely an hour away and London’s Paddington station is achievable in under two hours.
