New homes in Leighton Buzzard available with FirstBuy

Taylor Wimpey is offering assistance to first-time buyers through the FirstBuy scheme at its Billington Grove and Catina Courts developments of new build homes in Leighton Buzzard.

Fast-moving first-time buyers can get help to step on the property ladder with the Government-backed FirstBuy scheme at Taylor Wimpey’s two sought-after collections of new homes for sale in Leighton Buzzard.

This fantastic initiative lets qualifying purchasers secure their new home with a mortgage of just 75% of the full purchase price – plus a deposit as low as 5% – and is available now with selected homes at the leading housebuilder’s Billington Grove and Catina Court developments of apartments and houses for sale in Leighton Buzzard.

Under FirstBuy in Leighton Buzzard, a lucky purchaser could secure a three-bedroom ‘Coniston’ townhouse at Billington Grove, priced £215,000, with a deposit of only £10,750 and a mortgage of just £161,250.

Meanwhile, a qualifying first-time buyer in search of property for sale in Leighton Buzzard could purchase a one-bedroom apartment at Catina Court, priced £87,500, with a deposit of just £4,375 and a mortgage of only £65,625.

Steve Rolt, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “FirstBuy offers first-time buyers a unique opportunity to leave renting behind and step on to the Leighton Buzzard property ladder in style.

“We have already experienced considerable interest in this fantastic initiative and availability is strictly limited, so I would stress to any aspiring homeowners in search of houses or flats for sale in Leighton Buzzard that they must be quick to avoid missing out.”

FirstBuy works through a joint loan of 20% from the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) and Taylor Wimpey, which means that eligible purchasers only need put down a 5% deposit and obtain a 75% loan-to-value mortgage.

The loan is repayable at the end of the 25-year mortgage term or when the property is sold. To be eligible, purchasers must be first-time buyers and their total household earnings should be less than £60,000.

Perfect for individuals, executive couples and growing families, the three-bedroom ‘Coniston’ townhouse at Billington Grove benefits from a lounge/dining room leading to a conservatory, which opens through French doors to the private rear garden, while a contemporary fitted kitchen with breakfast area and a guest cloakroom are also located off the entrance hallway.

Upstairs, the first-floor landing leads to two bedrooms and a main bathroom, while the en-suite master bedroom enjoys appealing seclusion on the top floor. Outside, the ‘Coniston’ has two allocated parking spaces.

One-bedroom apartments at Catina Court, meanwhile, are tailor-made for the demands of modern living, with each benefiting from a spacious lounge/dining room, an open-plan or separate kitchen, a double bedroom and a main bathroom off the internal entrance hallway. Selected plots boast Juliet balconies to living areas and the new homes include allocated parking outside.
