The Easy Start shared equity initiative offers first-time buyers the chance to secure their dream home at Taylor Wimpey’s Millers Court development of flats for sale in Canterbury for 85% of the full price.
First-time buyers are being urged to grab a fantastic opportunity to purchase a brand new home in a prime location at Taylor Wimpey’s Millers Court development of new homes in Canterbury – without having to scrape together a hefty deposit.
The leading housebuilder’s amazing Easy Start initiative means qualifying purchasers can secure selected two-bedroom ‘Bay Court’ apartments in Canterbury at Millers Court for just 85% of the price tag – that’s as little as £138,121*!
Under this incredible scheme, all the purchaser has to do is find a deposit for as little as 5% – only £8,125** – and Taylor Wimpey’s appointed independent financial advisors will help arrange a mortgage covering 80% of the price of selected Canterbury flats at the development.
The remaining 15% equity is provided by the housebuilder in the form of an interest-free loan to boost the down-payment on the property, which can be repaid in up to three instalments over a 10-year period.
Mark Pajak, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “Our fabulous Easy Start initiative can make owning a home a reality for buyers in search of property for sale in Canterbury who would otherwise struggle to raise enough money for a deposit on their first home.
“The purchaser owns 100% of the property from day one and is free to make payments during the 10-year period to suit their individual circumstances in up to three instalments.”
“However, property-seekers hoping to secure a brand new apartment using Easy Start at Millers Court should act quickly as this amazing offer is only available on selected plots.”
The stylish apartment at Plot 3 in Bay Court, for example, is available from just £162,495, or £138,121* with Easy Start, and features an open-plan kitchen and spacious living/dining area with attractive bay window, while two bedrooms and a main bathroom are also located off the private entrance hallway. Outside the property benefits from communal parking and access to a beautiful shared garden.
Alternatively, selected plots in Bay Court boast Juliet balconies and/or en-suite facilities to the master bedrooms.
Customers who reserve their new apartment off-plan can enjoy the added benefit of ensuring their new home is completed to their personal specifications by choosing from Taylor Wimpey’s Options range of interior finishing touches, including carpets, flooring, tiles, kitchen appliances and bathroom suites.
Canterbury is a modern and vibrant city, which has retained its picturesque town centre while moving into the 21st century, boasting more than 320 shops as well as a wealth of bars and restaurants, cinemas and theatres. Millers Court is within easy reach of an abundance of schools for all ages.
Commuters will appreciate that Canterbury is close to major road links and within easy reach of the City. The development lies just nine miles from the M2, about 16 miles from the M20 and under a mile from Canterbury East station, while Ashford International station is only 17 miles away, with journey times to London St Pancras just 38 minutes.
Canterbury is steeped in history with the city’s skyline dominated by the stunning cathedral, the oldest in England. The ancient ruins of St Augustine’s Abbey and St Martin’s Church form Canterbury’s UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Much of the surrounding countryside is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The beautiful north Kent coast is only a short drive away, with the artistic town of Whitstable – famed for its oysters – and the traditional seaside magic of Herne Bay both popular destinations for days out.
Three miles south in Bekesbourne is Howlett's Wild Animal Park, home to the late John Aspinall's collection of gorillas, chimpanzees, African elephants and tigers. Other parks in the area include Wildwood Trust, Druidstone Park and Wingham Wildlife Park, ideal for all the family.
