Under the initiative, qualifying customers can secure their dream Herne Bay property at Meadow View for just 80% of its full price – that’s a 5% deposit and a 75% loan-to-value mortgage, subject to status – 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 term or when the property is sold.

Jason Stokes, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “A limited selection of properties at Meadow View is available through the FirstBuy scheme, putting first-time home-ownership within reach for even more would-be buyers.

“Demand for FirstBuy is bound to be incredibly high – so property-seekers will have to act fast if they are to make Meadow View their new home!”

Among the properties available at Meadow View is the recently released three-bedroom ‘Jasmine’. Priced from £198,500, this delightful starter home can be secured by qualifying purchasers using FirstBuy for only 80% of its full price – that’s just £158,800!

The ‘Jasmine’ is creating a high level of interest from house-hunters because of its great design, which features a light and airy living room with French doors leading out to the private rear garden, plus a modern fitted kitchen and a handy guest cloakroom on the ground floor. The three bedrooms are spaced out over the first and second floor, with the master bedroom benefiting from an en suite, while outside there is allocated parking.
