Coastal dreams come true for buyers at Torre Marine
Barratt is giving first time buyers the chance to secure a dream home by the sea. The developer is offering Head Start – a scheme designed to help buyers take their first step in to the property market – on a number of homes at Torre Marine in Torquay.
“We’re keen to make it as easy as possible for buyers to turn the dream of owning their first new home into a reality,” said sales manager, Mary Daymond. “Head Start is a shared equity scheme that allows buyers to secure a home for just 85 per cent of the asking price. The remaining 15 per cent is funded through a deferred Barratt loan.
And buyers don’t have to pay this until the home is sold again or in ten years, whichever is sooner.”
With a selection of attractive new homes on offer, Torre Marine has something for everyone. And first time buyers won’t be disappointed. From £132,500 – or just £112,625 under Head Start – the one bedroom Avon apartment is a spacious, airy property. It has a colour-coordinated bathroom, a modern, well-designed kitchen, a well-proportioned double bedroom and a dedicated parking space.
“And, right now, we’re offering a ground floor Avon view home with curtains and carpets included,” said Mary Daymond. “So there has never been a better time to come and see us at Torre Marine and see what we can do for you.”
The selection of homes available at Torre Marine is extensive. Included are the two bedroom Eddington and Martello designs, from £150,000 and £179,950 respectively. The three storey three bedroom Norbury starts from £203,500. And the four bedroom mid-terrace Salisbury is priced at £201,950.
“Securing that first home is one of the most difficult challenges facing buyers today,” said Mary. “And we want to make sure that everyone has a chance to live in a home of their own. It is our job to make sure the process is as straightforward as possible. Head Start is the perfect tool for us.
“Now is a fantastic time to for people to buy if they can because there is a very good chance of properties increasing in value later on.
“So, if it is just the financial side causing a problem, it is definitely worth paying us a visit at Torre Marine. We have helped many buyers in to their dream homes over recent years – and we hope to help many more in the future.”
