Super-stylish apartments in Irvine

21st June 2010 Print
Lovell apartments at The Courtyard, Irvine

Lovell has launched a stylish selection of two-bedroom apartments at The Courtyard – its new housing development in the centre of Irvine – which are available from just £115,000.

Offering relaxed and modern open-plan living spaces, these contemporary homes are ideal for singles or couples and would be a perfect first-time buy.

Lovell is also making them even more attractive with a fantastic range of incentives on selected homes including an offer to pay the buyer’s legal fees (up to a certain amount) or include extras such as carpets with the property.

A new view apartment has just opened giving homebuyers the chance to have a closer look at the properties’ stylish design and high-quality finishing. All the apartments feature stunning fitted kitchens with high-specification Bosch appliances including oven, hob and extractor, dishwasher, washing machine and fridge-freezer. Each master bedroom has en-suite facilities with all bedrooms benefitting from fitted wardrobes.

“These modern apartments offer superb design, fantastic value and a great location, in a quiet residential area but with the attractions of the town centre close by,” says Lovell sales advisor Frances Gray. “They would be ideal for someone currently renting and looking for a place of their own, especially with the deals we now have available.”

Lovell is now offering its Shared Equity Scheme on selected apartments at The Courtyard – enabling purchasers to buy a home for 75 per cent or 85 per cent of the sale price. This means that a buyer could move into an apartment through the Shared Equity Scheme paying as little as £86,250 up front. Lovell lends homebuyers the outstanding sum with no interest or rent to pay. Depending on their mortgage provider, that may mean homebuyers have no deposit to find.

When a home is bought through the Lovell Shared Equity Scheme, the loan sum is repaid after ten years or when the buyer wishes to sell or redeem their mortgage – whichever is sooner. The sum repaid will be 25 or 15 per cent of the current market value of the property (depending on whether the property was bought through the 75 per cent or 85 per cent Shared Equity Scheme). Purchasers also have the opportunity to make lump-sum payments to pay off the outstanding amount during the ten-year period.

Right in the heart of Irvine, The Courtyard is in a highly desirable residential neighbourhood with the town’s main shopping centre just a short walk away. The development is ideal for anyone working in Irvine or for commuters to Kilmarnock or Ayr. Both the M77 and Glasgow Prestwick International Airport are less than 10 miles away. Irvine railway station is less than a mile and it is just six miles to Troon ferry port.
