New homes in Colchester for under £170k

Taylor Wimpey is urging Essex property-seekers to act quickly to secure one of the final homes at The Boulevard at Tamarinds, its fast-selling development of property for sale in Colchester.
There’s an exciting opportunity available for aspiring homeowners in search of houses for sale in Colchester – the final few plots at The Boulevard at Tamarinds are ready to move into now and, what’s more, they’re available with Taylor Wimpey’s fabulous Easystart shared equity scheme!
This means that these spacious three-bedroom ‘Hiat’ town-houses in Colchester can be secured by qualifying first-time buyers for just 85% of the full purchase price – that’s from as little as £169,996*!
With Easystart, all the purchaser has to do is find a 5% deposit, subject to status – as little as £10,000 – and Taylor Wimpey will help arrange a mortgage covering 80% of the price of this impressive Colchester property.
The remaining 15% equity is provided by the housebuilder 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 this property in Colchester when the payments are made.
However, with limited availability, anyone hoping to step onto the property ladder at The Boulevard at Tamarinds should act without delay to avoid missing out on this amazing chance to own a brand new home for less.
Michael O’Leary, Regional Sales and Marketing Manager for Taylor Wimpey, says: “These spacious ‘Hiat’ townhouses are the final homes remaining in the current phase at The Boulevard, Tamarinds, and with such great-value prices for these spacious properties, we don’t expect them to be available for long.
“And with our amazing Easystart initiative available with these plots, first-time buyers can choose their dream home now, without having to save for years for a hefty deposit. With their down-payment boosted by our equity loan, purchasers can benefit from more attractive mortgage deals, with lower monthly repayments.”
The ‘Hiat’ offers generous accommodation across three storeys and is the perfect choice for couples or young families.
A spacious living room and a contemporary kitchen/dining room with attractive Juliet balcony form the heart of this beautiful home on the first floor, while a handy utility room and a bedroom which could alternatively be used as a home office, along with an integral garage, occupy the ground floor.
Meanwhile, the top floor comprises two double bedrooms, one with en-suite shower room, and a main bathroom. Outside, the property benefits from allocated parking.
All new homes at The Boulevard are completed to a high standard specification, including gas central heating, double glazing and integrated kitchens including appliances.
Conveniently located just over a mile from Colchester’s historic centre, homes at The Boulevard 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.
To find out more about securing one of the final two ‘Hiat’ townhouses with Easystart at The Boulevard, Tamarinds, property-seekers should visit the Sales and Marketing Suite in Tufnell Way, off Bergholt Road, Colchester, and open Thursday to Monday from 10am to 5.30pm.
