New homes for discerning buyers in Diss
Orbit First Step is offering a pair of two-bedroom apartments for sale under the New Build HomeBuy scheme at Cuthberts Maltings in the bustling market town of Diss.
New Build HomeBuy (formerly Shared Ownership) is a fantastic opportunity if you want to get a foot on the property ladder but can’t afford to buy a home outright. The scheme allows you to buy a share in a brand new property, paying a subsidised rent on the part you don’t own. You can then purchase further shares until eventually you own the property outright. An additional benefit of purchasing using New Build HomeBuy is that your deposit requirements will be far less than if you purchased outright.
With shares available from just 25 per cent (subject to terms and conditions), these apartments present the ideal opportunity to take your first step onto the property ladder for as little as £25,000. Not only are these apartments affordable – it is estimated that you would need a household income from just £12,000 to purchase one – they come complete with a fitted kitchen that includes an oven, hob and extractor. Each apartment has its own separate entrance and features an open-plan lounge, kitchen and diner, gas central heating, a communal garden and allocated parking.
Cuthberts Maltings is a mix of refurbished Maltings and new builds constructed by highly regarded local builder Danny Ward, who has a history of Maltings conversions within the town. Residents can enjoy all the town has to offer with a wide range of amenities including high street and independent shops, schooling to sixth form level, sporting and social amenities such as an 18 hole golf course, tennis, squash and bowls clubs plus football and rugby clubs within easy reach.
Diss is easily accessible, having a mainline rail station on the Norwich to London Liverpool Street line with a journey to London taking around 90 minutes, Norwich is only 20 miles or so to the north and Ipswich around 23 miles to the south. Bury St Edmunds is around 18 miles away and the Heritage Coast around Southwold just 45 minutes or so by car.
Sales and Marketing Manager, Diane Webster said: “These apartments are really well situated in a lovely part of a charming town. We only have two available and as they represent such great value for money, we expect there will be a lot of interest in them. If you have an annual household income less than £60,000 and are in need of an affordable home in the area, please do get in touch with us as soon as possible. We can quickly assess your eligibility and if you are accepted you’ll be one step closer to owning your very own home.”
