Jasmine Place top choice for buyers
Buyers seeking a new home in idyllic rural Somerset are turning to Jasmine Place in the picturesque market town of Shepton Mallet.
The Barratt development is celebrating a huge demand for its impressive selection of two, three and four bedroom homes. And a number of factors are being credited for the site’s success.
“We are delighted by the response we have seen here,” said Barratt sales director, Andrea Pilgrim. “There are a number of reasons buyers find Jasmine Place so hard to resist. The mix of homes at this development really does offer something for everyone – from young professionals and first time buyers through to growing families.
“Its location, in beautiful Shepton Mallet, is also high on the wish lists of many buyers. And Barratt’s reputation, as a top quality housebuilder is also an important consideration. We have been rated a five star builder – the best possible score – for two years runnin in the latest Home Builders Federation customer satisfaction survey.”
Among the homes currently available at Jasmine Place is the Roseberry design. Priced from £144,995, this two bedroom home features a large open-plan lounge leading to a modern, fully-fitted kitchen and dining area. From here there are french doors out to the rear garden.
The two bedrooms are an excellent size and there is an attractive, colour-coordinated bathroom.
“The Roseberry is a beautiful home and is perfect for first time buyers,” said Andrea. “Jasmine Place is proving particularly popular among those seeking their first move into the property market – because of the number of schemes we have in place to help them move from renting to buying.
“Often, people are put off because they are unable to secure the finances to make their first purchase. And that is where schemes, such as shared equity, can be a big help.”
For those seeking a move up to a larger home at Jasmine Place but feel unable to find buyers for their existing property, Barratt offers part exchange. “Our part exchange scheme makes it easy for buyers to move up the property ladder without the burden of finding a buyer for their current home,” said Andrea.
Another top consideration for buyers at Jasmine Place is the five year guarantee offered on all fixtures and fittings in place at the time of purchase.
“Buyers tell us this plays a crucial role in their decision to buy,” said Andrea. “We are the only housebuilder to offer this guarantee on new homes – and it provides extra reassurance at a time when people are making a major financial commitment.”
Shepton Mallet is the perfect rural town for buyers looking for a location away from the crowds but close enough to schools and other local amenities.
And there are excellent links to local towns and cities, including Bath and Bristol, making Jasmine Place ideal for commuters.
