Mew show apartment showcases life at The Meadows

First time buyers looking to settle in Siston can find a brand new apartment to suit any lifestyle at The Meadows. A selection of homes is available at Barratt’s sought after development where a new one bedroom show apartment has just been launched showcasing the Moreton design.

“This eye-catching new apartment is perfect for first time buyers and is available with the HomeBuy Direct scheme so you only have to fund 70 per cent of the price,” said sales director, Andrea Pilgrim.

From £117,700, The Moreton offers an open plan living/kitchen/dining area with space and light. The kitchen boasts fully fitted contemporary units – with plenty of storage space and the apartment has a spacious bedroom and a bathroom.

“We know how tough it can be for buyers to put the finances in place before making that first move in to the property market,” said Andrea Pilgrim. “That’s why we offer the HomeBuy Direct scheme.”

Buyers can now reserve a brand new Moreton apartment under the government-backed scheme – designed specifically to help people onto the housing ladder.

“We are delighted to be able to offer HomeBuy Direct at The Meadows,’’ said sales director Andrea Pilgrim. “This scheme has proved extremely successful in this area in helping first time buyers in terms of affordability and we expect high levels of interest in these new apartments."

Buyers who are accepted for the HomeBuy Direct scheme only have to find 70 per cent of the purchase price on a new home. The other 30 per cent is funded by a joint equity loan from Barratt and the Government’s Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) together with the buyer’s five per cent deposit.

This means that the Moreton one bedroom apartment can be purchased for just £78,270. And buyers can also take advantage of the scheme when purchasing alternative one and two bedroom homes.

The Meadows lies close to the Bristol and Bath cycle path but, although it nestles in a rural location near Siston Village, the Avon Ring Road is close by, providing easy access to central Bristol with all its amenities.
