Homebuyers Brian Lunn and Amy Taylor are looking forward to starting married life at Taylor Wimpey’s Broadhurst Gardens development of new homes for sale in Huntington, Cannock, after being helped on to the property ladder by the leading housebuilder.

Like many newlywed couples, finding the perfect home in which to start their married life was very important to Staffordshire property-seekers Brian Lunn and his fiancée Amy Taylor.

With their wedding scheduled for May 2012, the couple were excited to discover exactly what they were looking for at Taylor Wimpey’s Broadhurst Gardens development of property for sale in Huntington, near Cannock.

And by making use of the leading housebuilder’s fantastic 5% Gifted Deposit scheme at the development of new homes for sale in Cannock, Brian and Amy were able to secure their first home together for less than they ever imagined possible!

“We’re both first-time buyers and even after a year of living with our parents to save money, we didn’t think we would be able to afford our ideal place at Broadhurst Gardens,” says Brian (32), a plumber and central heating engineer, reflecting on their search for new houses for sale in Cannock.

“But the Sales Executive told us about the 5% Gifted Deposit scheme and we couldn’t believe it – we could actually own the home we wanted!”

Thanks to Taylor Wimpey providing the couple with a 5% boost for the downpayment on their first property in Cannock, Brian and Amy (29) were able to secure a three-bedroom ‘Severn’ detached house at Broadhurst Gardens.

“We saw one of the showhomes at the development and it looked great, so that helped us make our minds up. We really like the open-plan kitchen/dining room and the layout of the lounge of the home we have chosen, plus there’s a garage which I’m sure will come in useful,” says Brian.

“Broadhurst Gardens is in an excellent location – there are plenty of pubs and restaurants close to the development, there are some good golf clubs nearby and Cannock Chase is just down the road where Amy enjoys mountain biking with her father on trails near the development.

“We get married in May and our new home will be ready in June. We can’t wait to move in to our first home together as newlyweds!”

The similarly stunning ‘Croxton’ detached house is one of a wide selection of property designs currently available to reserve at Broadhurst Gardens, and is priced from as little as £154,995.

This impressive property features a light and airy lounge/dining room with French doors opening to the private rear garden, plus a stylish kitchen and handy guest cloakroom which completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, the landing leads to the en-suite master bedroom, two further well-proportioned bedrooms and a main bathroom, while outside, the property benefits from two additional allocated parking spaces.

Alternatively, a selection of four-bedroom detached properties is available at the development from just £199,995.

To make choosing one of these high-quality homes even more appealing, Taylor Wimpey offers a range of helpful homebuyer incentives suitable for first-time buyers like Brian and Amy as well as those with a property to sell.

For example, the leading housebuilder’s 5% Gifted Deposit scheme is available with selected homes at Broadhurst Gardens and can provide a welcome boost to purchaser’s deposits – with absolutely nothing to pay back!

Broadhurst Gardens is conveniently located on the edge of Huntington village, which benefits from a thriving community life and boasts many amenities, including a primary school, post office, local stores and takeaways, a youth club, community centre, bowling green, rugby club and church. The village recreation ground has a full-size football pitch, two junior pitches, a skate park and changing rooms.

A wider choice of local shopping, including chemists, butchers, bakers and supermarkets, are only a short drive away in Cannock.

Huntington is well connected to the A34 Cannock to Stafford road and the M6 is just over five miles away, making Broadhurst Gardens a convenient base for commuting to Birmingham, Wolverhampton and Stafford.

Railway stations at Hednesford and Cannock both operate regular services to Birmingham New Street and Stafford and each are located about one and a half miles from the village.

The development is situated on the fringes of picturesque Cannock Chase, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with acre upon acre of forest, woodland and parkland as well as visitor centres, museums, public footpaths and popular cycle trails.
