Just one property remains available with the FirstBuy scheme for first-time buyers at Taylor Wimpey’s Broadhurst Gardens development of new homes for sale in Cannock.

Fast-moving first-time buyers can get help to step on the property ladder with the Government’s new FirstBuy scheme at Taylor Wimpey’s Broadhurst Gardens development of new build homes in Huntington, Cannock.

This fantastic initiative lets qualifying purchasers secure a property for sale in Cannock for as little as 80% of the full purchase price – including a 75% mortgage and a 5% deposit, subject to status – eliminating the need to save for years to purchase a first property.

However, anyone hoping to take advantage of this amazing opportunity will have to hurry because just one of Taylor Wimpey’s new homes for sale in Cannock remains available under the FirstBuy scheme at Broadhurst Gardens.

The three-bedroom ‘Severn’ detached property in Cannock, priced at only £179,995, can be accessed by qualifying purchasers for 80% of its full purchase price – that’s £143,996 – with the FirstBuy initiative.

Carl Cooke, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “We’re delighted that the Government’s FirstBuy scheme is available at our sought-after Broadhurst Gardens development of houses for sale in Cannock, offering one lucky first-time buyer a unique opportunity to leave renting behind and step on to the property ladder in style.

“We have already experienced considerable interest in this fantastic initiative and so I would stress to those in search of new build homes in Cannock or houses for sale in Huntington 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.

Broadhurst Gardens is conveniently located on the edge of Huntington village, which benefits from a thriving community life and boasts many amenities, including a primary school, post office, local stores and takeaways, a youth club, community centre, bowling green, rugby club and church. The village recreation ground has a full-size football pitch, two junior pitches, a skate park and changing rooms.

A wider choice of local shopping, including chemists, butchers, bakers and supermarkets, are only a short drive away in Cannock.

Huntington is well connected to the A34 Cannock to Stafford road and the M6 is just over five miles away, making Broadhurst Gardens a convenient base for commuting to Birmingham, Wolverhampton and Stafford.

Railway stations at Hednesford and Cannock both operate regular services to Birmingham New Street and Stafford and each are located about one and a half miles from the village.

The development is situated on the fringes of picturesque Cannock Chase, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with acre upon acre of forest, woodland and parkland as well as visitor centres, museums, public footpaths and popular cycle trails.

To be in with a chance of securing the final FirstBuy plot at Broadhurst Gardens, first-time buyers can visit the Sales Centre, located off Stafford Road, Huntington, and open from 11am to 5pm, Thursday to Monday. Alternatively, visit taylorwimpey.co.uk.
