Last chance to secure a brand new home at Merchant's Quarter

22nd September 2011 Print
Merchants Quarter

Award-winning house builder Crest Nicholson is urging house hunters to act quickly if they want to secure a property at its popular development in Stevenage. Merchant’s Quarter – which is proving particularly attractive to London commuters – has nearly sold out, with just a few two bedroom apartments now remaining.

Crest Nicholson is making it easier for first-time buyers to purchase at the development by offering its exclusive EasyBuy* scheme. EasyBuy allows new purchasers to own 100% of their new home but only pay 80% of the price now. Through the scheme there is no rent to pay or interest accrued on the outstanding 20% of the property’s equity for the first five years.

Christine Tiernan, Sales and Marketing Director for Crest Nicholson South, said: “The popularity of this small, select development is testament to the prime location and desirable lifestyle that it has to offer. With so many of the apartments already snapped up, Merchant’s Quarter demonstrates the demand for high-quality, well-designed properties in commuter areas. We urge anyone interested to visit our sales office to see in the flesh the quality and lifestyle that Merchant’s Quarter has to offer.”

Situated on the tree lined avenue of Sish Lane, Merchant’s Quarter is within walking distance of Stevenage’s affluent Old Town and has a range of stylish new homes. The apartments are expertly finished to the high quality associated with Crest Nicholson. Kitchens come complete with modern units, worktops and brushed steel Bosch appliances, including an electric oven, hob and chimney hood. Bathrooms include elegant Hansgrohe fittings and each property also comes with a parking space.

The development is also a stone’s throw away the nearby King George V playing fields which are perfect for walking, jogging or even just a chance to relax in the sunshine. Also, just a short drive away is the larger Fairlands Valley Park, voted as one of the UK’s top 15 free visitor attractions, which includes many activities such as climbing, hiking and a range of water sports for the more adventurous.

Transport links from Merchant’s Quarter are excellent with junction seven of the A1 (M) within easy reach from Stevenage, whilst the surrounding towns of St Albans, Luton, and Welwyn Garden City are also within close proximity. The mainline station is just over a mile away offering easy routes into London with Kings Cross taking approximately 27 minutes. For international travel, Luton Airport is just eight miles away making business travel and even short European breaks more accessible.

Apartments are currently available to purchase with Crest Nicholson’s EasyBuy scheme starting at £122,360 (full price £152,950) for a two bedroom apartment. For more information, visit crestnicholson.com.
