Don't miss the boat in Ardrossan

After only opening a few months ago, well over half of the new homes and apartments at George Wimpey West Scotland's development ‘The Harbour', in the coastal town of Ardrossan, North Ayrshire have sold already. However, for those interested in buying into the coastal lifestyle, they have not missed the boat completely.

There's still an excellent range of three and four bedroom townhouses from £165,000, as well as three bedroom terraced homes from just £150,000. There's also still a selection of two-bedroom apartments for sale with prices from £112,000, but with 25 apartments and 17 family homes already snapped up, customers interested in one of these hot properties will need to move fast.

The Harbour is George Wimpey's debut development in Ardrossan and is located on Montgomerie Street, just off the town's Princess Street. This makes it very central for accessing the town centre, shops, train stations, bus routes, Ardrossan Harbour (with regular ferries to the Isle of Arran), schools and all other important, local amenities.

On completion, The Harbour will comprise 42 contemporary two-bedroom apartments and a selection of 31 three and four-bedroom family homes - all finished to a high standard and in a prime location for easy travelling to Ayr and Irvine. It is also only 17 miles to Prestwick Airport and 29 miles to Glasgow via the upgraded M77.

Michelle Logie, sales and marketing director for George Wimpey West Scotland said: "The revival of this pretty west coast town is certainly driving potential homebuyers to Ardrossan, as witnessed with our record sales over just the first few months of opening. Work is already well underway on the Clyde Marina, which is the regeneration of Ardrossan Harbour, and once finished this will become an attractive location for eating out, shopping and generally relaxing in your leisure time.

"Our advice to homebuyers that are interested in a good quality of life, by the coast which also represents very good value for money - is to move quickly - as people are realising the many benefits of living in this attractive town and this will only continue to grow."

"Our showhomes are due to open in July, but for customers keen to grab their slice of the action now there are some great pre-showhome offers available - just pop along to our sales information centre to find out more.

“Plus customers who visit The Harbour will benefit from our enhanced Easymover scheme when reserving before 30 June, 2008. This means that George Wimpey will sell your property for you and pay all the costs associated with your move.*

"The scheme brings an excellent prospect to purchasers at any time of year, but is particularly helpful at the moment for buyers who're keen to make their move to this extremely popular development.

"Not only does the Easymover scheme relieve customers of all costs associated with buying a house, including stamp duty and legal costs, but the company will arrange for a removal company to pack up your belongings and transport everything to your new dream home. Just ask our sales executive for more information on how we can get you on the move."

The sales information centre is open seven days a week from 10am-5pm. Alternatively, visit Georgewimpey.co.uk for latest availability and prices.
