New phase of homes launches at Repton Park in Kent

High demand from property-seekers has prompted leading housebuilder George Wimpey to unveil the brand new phase of its hugely popular Repton Park development in Ashford, Kent.

The development, which opened just four weeks ago, is already 49% sold – but fast moving house-hunters can choose from stunning designs to suit all tastes and budgets, ranging from just £109,995 for a stylish one-bedroom apartment to a great-value £204,995 for an impressive four-bedroom townhouse.

While a limited number of homes are available for a summer move completion, by reserving their new home for 2010 now, buyers can guarantee today’s low prices at a time when the property market is showing clear signs of a recovery.

Mark Pajak, Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey South East, says: “The combination of appealing designs, superb build quality and affordable prices has made Repton Park a big hit with home-buyers.

“We’re delighted to launch the latest phase of this fantastic collection of homes and urge property-seekers to contact us today – and become part of something really special.”

According to latest figures from Nationwide, house prices rose for the fourth successive month in August – yet off-plan buyers can still take advantage of property prices that are an average of 2.7% lower than this time last year*.

Securing a house before it is built also gives customers the pick of available plots and allows them to tailor the finishing touches of their home – including carpets, flooring, lighting and appliances – to suit their individual needs.

To make buying a home at Repton Park even easier, house-hunters can take advantage of incentives for first-time buyers and George Wimpey’s easymover programme, which lets customers with a house to sell reserve their new home and then sit back and relax while the housebuilder helps to find a buyer for their current property and pays the estate agent’s fees.

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

Just one of the fabulous homes now available at Repton Park for 2010 is the attractive three-bedroom ‘Jarvis’ townhouse, priced from just £184,995.

Ideal for growing families and couples looking to upsize, the heart of this three-storey home is its spacious lounge/dining room, which opens through French doors to the private rear garden, while the ground floor also boasts a modern, fitted kitchen, a guest cloakroom and handy storage cupboards.

Upstairs, the magnificent master bedroom and en-suite bathroom occupies the entire top storey and the first floor benefits from two further double bedrooms and a main bathroom.

Also available for 2010 is the four-bedroom ‘Hampstead’ townhouse, priced from £204,995, and the two-bedroom semi-detached ‘Bolney’, from £162,495.

All new homes at the development enjoy a high standard specification, including double glazing, central heating and fitted kitchen with integrated oven, hob and hood.

Homebuyers at Repton Park will benefit from Ashford’s large range of high street shops, traditional boutiques, butchers and bakers, while a choice of primary and secondary schools are also located within easy reach.

Good public transport is a vital part of the overall plan for Repton Park, and a new bus service will link the community with Ashford town centre and railway station, with rail connections to central London, Maidstone, Folkestone and to continental Europe.
