New Hilsea homes launched to meet high demand
Due to the unprecedented demand for new homes at Austen Court in Hilsea, Taylor Wimpey Southern Counties has brought the launch of its second phase forward — offering even more choice for Portsmouth house hunters.
Phase two offers a new collection of two and three bedroom homes priced from £149,995. All the properties are finished to the same high standard that has made Taylor Wimpey the UK’s leading house builder and are ideally suited to first time buyers and families looking to move to a larger home.
Sarah Pasco, regional sales director for Taylor Wimpey Southern Counties, said: “Despite the tough economic climate interest in our developments shows no signs of waning, least of all at Austen Court! We originally launched a collection of apartments, but the demand was so great we decided to release the larger houses for sale much earlier than expected. The success of these properties is certainly down to their high quality and competitive prices, and as many of our customers have found, the financial incentives we have on offer make it even easier to get your foot onto the property ladder.
“The new houses, with spacious living areas and generous bedrooms, are ideal for young families looking to upgrade, but with a range of styles available, we are confident that all prospective buyers will find their dream home here in Hilsea.”
If you’re love to buy one of the new houses but are struggling to save enough deposit then Taylor Wimpey’s innovative Deposit Match* scheme could help. The scheme is ideal for those who want a better mortgage rate but need a larger deposit to secure one as the house builder will match your deposit by up to 10% of the purchase price via an interest free loan over 10 years
First time buyers looking for something a bit smaller could use the EasyStart* scheme, available on the development’s one bedroom apartments, which are part of Phase one, and priced from just £114,995. Under the scheme you could purchase your property for just 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.
Austen Court is located in Hilsea, a district on the outskirts of vibrant Portsmouth, and has a real community feel to it with good shops, restaurants and facilities. There are also several excellent educational facilities for all ages that make the area ideal for young families. With the M27 to Southampton and the A3 straight to London, as well as the train station just a mile away, Hilsea is well connected and easily accessible.
