Taylor Wimpey launches FirstBuy in Telford

First-time buyers in search of property for sale in Shropshire can now take advantage of the FirstBuy scheme at Taylor Wimpey’s Castle Meadows and The Meadows developments of new homes in Telford.
The fantastic FirstBuy scheme has been making home-ownership a reality for first-time buyers across the country – and it’s now available at two stunning Taylor Wimpey developments of new homes for sale in Telford.
This amazing Government-backed initiative is being offered at the leading housebuilder’s Castle Meadows and The Meadows developments, removing the need for big deposits for those aspiring purchasers in search of new build homes in Telford.
Selected apartments and houses for sale in Telford at these superb new homes collections can be secured under FirstBuy for as little as 80% of the full purchase price – including a 75% mortgage and a 5% deposit, subject to status.
Taylor Wimpey and the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) provide a 20% joint loan for the qualifying property for sale in Telford, which is repayable at the end of the 25-year mortgage or when the property is sold.
Jan Titley, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “We are pleased to announce that the excellent Government-backed initiative is now available with a limited number of houses and flats for sale in Telford at our Castle Meadows and The Meadows developments.
“FirstBuy makes taking that initial step on the property ladder easier, but it’s an opportunity that won’t be around for long – so first-time buyers in search of houses or new build apartments in Telford should hurry if they want to take advantage.”
Under FirstBuy, the two-bedroom ‘Gladstone House’ apartment at plot 141 at Castle Meadows is available to a first-time buyer for only 80% of its £87,995 full purchase price – that’s just £70,396.
Similarly, the two-bedroom ‘Primrose’ semi-detached house, priced from only £131,995 at The Meadows can be secured for just 80% of its purchase price under the scheme.
Castle Meadows enjoys a convenient location just a few minutes’ walk from the High Street in Hadley, where community facilities and shops for everyday needs can be found, while The Meadows forms part of the wider Telford Millennium Village, an innovative development created in partnership with the Homes and Communities Agency and the borough of Telford & Wrekin.
Both of the developments are located within a short distance of Telford’s busy centre, which boasts a wide selection of national and independent shops, as well as leisure amenities including the 450-acre Telford Town Park and Telford Ski Centre.
Commuters will appreciate that the developments are just a short drive from the M54, putting Telford, Wolverhampton and Birmingham within easy reach.
