Last chance for a new home at The Acres
Only one property remains available at Orbit First Step’s Horley development, The Acres, and people keen to secure a low-cost home are being advised not to delay if they don’t want to miss out on the last opportunity to buy the one-bedroom apartment.
Twelve of the original homes, located just off Lake Lane, were quickly snapped up last year by people recognising the incredible value for money they offered. The last apartment includes a modern fitted kitchen with an oven, hob and extractor; washer/dryer and fridge/freezer as well as double glazing and gas central heating, carpets throughout (vinyl to wet areas) and parking.
The apartment can be purchased under the New Build HomeBuy scheme which offers buyers the opportunity to purchase a share of the property and pay a discounted rent on the remaining share. A minimum share on this apartment costs just £39,250 and the added beauty of the scheme is that you have the opportunity to ‘staircase’ - purchasing additional shares in the future, if you wish, until you own the property outright, just as you would when purchasing through a conventional mortgage, with no further rent to pay.
Sales and Marketing Manager, Diane Webster said: “The lucky buyer of this last apartment will be taking that all-important step on to the property ladder and their new home will be much more affordable than the majority of comparable properties offered on the open market in the area so it’s a really good offer. Most of the homes on this development were reserved extremely quickly so we don’t anticipate this last one will be available for long and we’d therefore urge you to speak to us as soon as possible if you are interested.”
The Acres is located midway between Crawley and Reigate, and it’s conveniently situated close to the M23, just one junction away from the M25, offering easy access to London for those who wish to commute to the capital and Gatwick Airport is just a short drive away.
