Ideal new homes in Bedford for first-time buyers
First-time buyers can get help stepping on the property ladder with the Government-backed FirstBuy scheme at Woodlands Park, Taylor Wimpey’s sought-after development of new properties in Bedford.
This fantastic initiative, in association with the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA), lets qualifying purchasers secure selected new homes for sale in Bedford with a mortgage of just 75% of the full purchase price – plus a deposit as low as 5% – and is available now with selected three-bedroom houses at Taylor Wimpey’s Woodlands Park.
The spacious three-bedroom ‘Eleanor’ semi-detached homes at Plots 39 and 40, for example, can be accessed by qualifying purchasers for 80% of their £195,000 purchase price under the FirstBuy scheme – meaning one of these fabulous new houses in Bedford can be secured for just £156,000, including a £146,250 mortgage and a deposit of only £9,750, subject to status.
Taylor Wimpey and the HCA will boost the purchaser’s down-payment with a joint loan of 20%, which is repayable at the end of the 25-year mortgage term, or when the homeowner sells the property in Bedford. To be eligible for FirstBuy, customers must be first-time buyers with a household income below £60,000.
Steve Rolt, Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey South Midlands, says: “FirstBuy offers first-time buyers a unique opportunity to leave renting behind and step on to the property ladder in style, and it’s available now with our highly desirable ‘Eleanor’ new build homes for sale in Bedford at Woodlands Park.
“We have already experienced considerable interest in this fantastic initiative and availability is strictly limited, so I would stress to anyone interested in taking advantage of the offer that they must be quick to avoid missing out.”
The focal point of the stylish ‘Eleanor’ is its beautiful open-plan living/dining room opening through French doors to the private rear garden, while a separate kitchen and a handy guest cloakroom are also located off the entrance hallway.
Upstairs is the impressive master bedroom with en-suite shower room, plus two further bedrooms and a main bathroom, while outside the property benefits from a garage and additional allocated parking.
Like all new properties at the development, this beautiful family-sized house is completed to a high standard specification, benefiting from central heating, double glazing and a fitted kitchen with integrated oven, hob and hood.
First-time buyers interested in securing one of these impressive properties can experience their space and style by visiting the ‘Eleanor’ viewhome which is now open at Woodlands Park.
Woodlands Park is conveniently situated for the very best of both town and country. Just over a mile from Bedford town centre, home to shops, bars and restaurants catering for all tastes, it is also surrounded by peaceful countryside and woodland.
For commuters, Bedford station offers mainline links to London St Pancras while the M1 and the A1 are each only a short drive away.
