First Time Buyer Deal Is Up For Grabs At Augusta Park

First time buyers trying to get onto the property ladder that don’t want to settle for a pokey flat should head down to Taylor Wimpey Southern Counties’ Augusta Park development in Andover where they’ll find the ‘Home of the Week’ is the perfect starter pad.

Plot 53 is an attractive three bedroom Chedworth style property ideal for a couple or young family. Available on the Easystart* shared equity scheme, this home comes with flooring included and can be snapped up for just £161,495 – all that’s needed is a 5% deposit!

Sarah Pasco, regional sales director for Taylor Wimpey Southern Counties, said: “We speak to many first time buyers who think their only option onto the housing ladder is by settling for a place that’s either too small, needs lots of work doing or is in the wrong area. Our ‘Home of the Week’ goes to show that when it comes to space, quality and location you don’t have to put up with second best when looking for your first home! In addition the shared equity scheme offers the ideal solution for buyers who otherwise wouldn’t be able to purchase their first home. So if this sounds right for you, why not pay plot 53 a visit and see for yourself?”

Under the scheme, first time buyers can purchase a Taylor Wimpey home for as little as 85% of the price now. Simply pay a 5% deposit on exchange of contracts, and 80% of the price via your prearranged mortgage on completion. Taylor Wimpey will then loan you the remaining 15%, with no rent or interest to pay for up to 10 years.

The Chedworth features an open plan living/dining room with French door access to the rear garden, a contemporary kitchen, a cloakroom and a handy store cupboard on the ground floor. Upstairs sits three bedrooms, one with en suite, and a modern main bathroom. A carport and private parking space complete this property.

Augusta Park offers the best of town life in a semi-rural setting, with residents within easy reach of the Hampshire countryside, the South Coast and the New Forest. The development is also ideally located for those who need to commute with excellent road links to both the east and west via the A303. The A34 and M3 are both close at hand and the train journey from Andover to London takes around 1 hour 20 minutes.

Currently available is a selection of three bedroom terraced homes and four bedroom townhouses and detached homes with prices starting from £189,995.
