Essex property-seekers are being urged to visit Taylor Wimpey’s The Boulevard, Tamarinds, development – and discover the exceptional value offered by the selection of high-quality houses for sale in Colchester.
A fabulous opportunity is being offered to help aspiring home-owners secure their first house for less at Taylor Wimpey’s stunning The Boulevard, Tamarinds, development of property for sale in Colchester.
The leading housebuilder’s amazing Easy Start shared equity initiative is currently available for qualifying first-time buyers on selected three-bedroom properties at this popular development of houses in Colchester.
This means the spacious three-bedroom Plot 57 ‘Leigh’ terraced house, for example, priced at £174,995, can be secured for just £148,746* – that’s £50,000 less than a typical three-bedroom property to buy in Colchester and only £2,600 more than the average cost of a two-bedroom property in the CO4 postcode area**!
With Easy Start, all the purchaser has to do is find a deposit for as little as 5%, (subject to status) and Taylor Wimpey will provide 15% equity in the form of an interest-free loan, which can be repaid in up to three instalments over a 10-year period at the market value of the Colchester property when payments are made.
Michael O’Leary, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “Our fabulous three-bedroom houses at The Boulevard, Tamarinds, offer incredibly good value for money, with prices on a par with typical second-hand two-bedroom properties in Colchester.
“With Easy Start, first-time buyers who might otherwise be unable to raise enough money for a deposit on their first home can secure the home of their dreams for 85% of the purchase price – and bag the bargain of a life-time as well!”
The ‘Leigh’ is a delightful home featuring a spacious living/dining room opening through French doors to the private rear garden, with a contemporary fitted kitchen and handy guest cloakroom also located off the entrance hallway.
Upstairs, the landing leads to three bedrooms, including the master bedroom with en-suite shower room, and a main bathroom, while outside, the property benefits from two allocated parking spaces.
Conveniently located just over a mile from Colchester’s historic centre, homes at The Boulevard, Tamarinds, are within easy reach of the town’s wide selection of high street and independent shops, modern leisure amenities and restaurants.
A choice of schools for children of all ages are also close by, as are two universities, while the coast at West Mersea and Rowhedge is only a short drive from the development.
For commuters, nearby North Station provides regular services to London Liverpool Street in under an hour, while the M11 and Stansted Airport are easily accessible via the new A120.
