Garden Square apartments now open
Genesishomes is pleased to announce a collection of new apartments named Farrington Square in Watford which are ideal for buyers seeking outside space. The sensitive redevelopment of a former Ministry of Defence site has transformed it into a collection of affordable apartments that fit perfectly into this green, secluded yet highly convenient corner of Hertfordshire.
Buyers can purchase between 25% and 75% and can increase their share at any time, all the way to 100% and outright ownership. Farrington Square is available to anyone who does not already own a property and is unable to buy a home on the open market. Their total household income must be less than £60,000 per annum and buyers must have savings of around £3,500 to cover moving and legal costs.
In addition to the shared ownership apartments, there are a number of properties available for private sale, private rent and social rent as part of the wider development which all benefit from the tranquil, green environment.
Inside, each home features Genesishomes’ customary quality and elegant finish. This typically includes sleek, contemporary-style fitted kitchens – complete with oven, hob, fridge/freezer and washer/dryer – fitted carpets to the bedrooms and living area and chic white bathrooms, which include a mirror, towel rail and shower screen.
Each apartment benefits from large picture windows, filling each room with masses of natural light. The landscaped square which the apartments are set around gives the development a strong sense of place.
Set within a quiet, established residential area, Farrington Square has a relaxed, campus-style feel with plenty of communal open space to enjoy during the summer months. All of the apartments have good sized, decked balconies, many of which look out over the square – great for an early morning cappuccino or an evening glass of wine.
Farrington Square is well placed to make the most of the rural delights of the Borough of Hertsmere as well as the bustling Bushey Village and Watford town centre, both just two miles away. The location is handy for a large Sainsbury’s supermarket, a Costco discount store, a new civic leisure centre and a David Lloyd health club. Watford also offers a tempting plethora of bars and restaurants, and the Palace Theatre, which presents a varied programme of drama, dance, music and film.
The location is something of a commuter’s dream: Watford mainline railway station, approximately two miles away, has a large car park geared for passengers commuting into London and regular services operating into London Euston, the fastest taking just 17 minutes. Even closer is Bushey station, with services to Euston connecting with the Bakerloo line just four stops down the line. Road links are equally handy, with junction five at Watford.
Prices start from as little as £38,000 for a 25% share in a one-bedroom apartment based on a full market value of £152,000. For more information, visit genesishomes.org.uk.
