Taylor Wimpey has launched the Government-backed FirstBuy scheme for first-time buyers at its Papermill Lock development of new homes for sale in St Neots, Cambridgeshire.
Aspiring homeowners in search of new homes in Cambridgeshire can step on the property ladder with ease at Taylor Wimpey’s stunning new Papermill Lock development of houses for sale in St Neots – thanks to the fantastic FirstBuy initiative.

And a select number of these new houses in St Neots are available with the Government’s FirstBuy scheme, a brand new incentive which is making home ownership a reality for many first-time buyers by eliminating the need for big deposits.
Under FirstBuy, qualifying purchasers in search of property for sale in St Neots require only a 5% deposit and a 75% loan-to-value mortgage, with Taylor Wimpey and the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) providing a 20% loan which is repayable at the end of the 25-year mortgage or when the property is sold.

The development is situated in the quiet village of Little Paxton, on the outskirts of St Neots – a thriving Cambridgeshire town with a bustling weekly market, regular farmers’ markets and a wealth of open space, parkland and riverside walks.
St Neots is also a popular spot for commuters, with regular services from the town’s railway station putting London’s King’s Cross less than 40 minutes away, and the A1 for London and Peterborough, the A428 for Cambridge and the A14 for the Midlands and East Anglia all within easy reach.
The town also offers plenty of leisure opportunities to keep residents of all ages occupied.
Riverside Park, close to the town centre, is set in 72 acres with a waterside frontage, a pitch-and-putt golf course and children’s play areas, a boating lake and a skateboarding complex – and is a great place to listen to relaxing live music on summer Sundays.
The Priory Centre hosts everything from theatre productions to discos as well as an annual folk music festival, while St Neots leisure centre offers tennis, badminton and squash courts, a swimming pool and sauna, a fitness studio and outdoor sports pitches.
