Great-value new homes in Leighton Buzzard
Parents whose grown-up offspring seem reluctant to fly the nest can help their children secure a new property in Leighton Buzzard at Taylor Wimpey’s Heath Meadows development from just £6,247!
With rising house prices causing many aspiring buyers to struggle getting a foothold on the property ladder, the leading housebuilder is offering a selection of properties for sale in Leighton Buzzard with the fantastic FirstBuy scheme.
By making use of this Government-backed initiative at the Heath Meadows development of houses and apartments in Leighton Buzzard, qualifying first-time buyers can secure their new home for just 80% of its full price, meaning parents could potentially get rid of the kids by providing only a 5% deposit!
Tony Woodman, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “The rising cost of new build homes for sale in Leighton Buzzard, coupled with mortgage providers demanding a hefty deposit, has put off many aspiring buyers from making the move into home-ownership – and left them stuck in the parental abode.
“Thankfully, the solution could be here, because FirstBuy allows qualifying purchasers to secure selected homes for just 80% of their full price – including a 5% deposit, subject to status.
“With FirstBuy eliminating the need for big deposits, parents could help their children strike out on their own at Heath Meadows from just £6,247.”
The FirstBuy scheme works thanks to a 20% joint loan from the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) and Taylor Wimpey which is repayable at the end of the 25-year mortgage or when the property is sold. To be eligible, first-time buyers should have total household earnings of under £60,000.
For example, the two-bedroom ‘Lavender’ apartment at Plot 192 of Heath Meadows, priced at £124,950, is accessible to first-time buyers for an 80% FirstBuy price of just £99,960 and a 5% deposit of only £6,247!
This superb apartment features a light and airy living room with an open-plan fitted kitchen, plus an en-suite master bedroom, a further well-proportioned bedroom and a main bathroom, while outside the property benefits from a car port.
Alternatively, three-bedroom homes are available from just £179,950 at Heath Meadows, while four-bedroom houses are for sale from as little as £199,950.
Heath Meadows occupies a convenient location in popular Leighton Buzzard, and is well served by local amenities, including a nursery and schools for children of all ages.
Lying just two miles from the town centre, the development is within easy reach of a wide selection of high street and independent stores, a twice-weekly market and a wealth of pubs, restaurants, health clubs and leisure facilities.
Quick links to London make a home at Heath Meadows highly desirable for commuters, with the A5 and M1 close by and the town’s rail station offering regular services to the capital and the North. Those travelling further afield will appreciate that Luton Airport is only 18 miles from the development.
