First time buyers looking for a smart affordable home near a thriving historical city should look no further than Oxfordshire.
Rose Hill is a large development situated on the south-eastern outskirts of the university town. In the throes of regeneration, the site will soon feature excellent local amenities and leisure destinations such as a cinema, health club, a community centre and pubs.
Only five minutes away, residents can visit the bustling historical village of Iffley which ends at Iffley Lock on the river, a famed destination for walks.
Redbridge Park and Ride is easily accessible, saving on parking costs and making a day out to the famed city centre cheap and enjoyable.
In the city centre itself there are several attractions for culture vultures and young families such as bars, theatres, cafes, museums and excellent shopping facilities.
Commuters and workers needing to travel regularly to London or the Midlands will be conveniently located near to the A34 which links to the A40.
Perfect for first-time home buyers, the 254-home development by Taylor Wimpey in Rose Hill offers a range of one, two, three, and four bedroom homes.
Those in search of deals can benefit from huge savings on those extra bills that make first-time home purchases more costly than expected. Taylor Wimpey is giving buyers the opportunity to put down less than £100 to reserve their first one bedroom apartment.
On top of reducing reservation costs to £99 only, additional outgoings such as stamp duty, legal costs and mortgage fees will be included in the purchasing price. Buyers will have a substantially lower-than-average deposit of five per cent to produce, before being able to take advantage of the huge savings in this deal.
Taylor Wimpey is currently offering the deal specifically for the £149,995 one-bed apartments, each of which possesses a balcony, spacious bedroom, kitchen and living room.
The developers are currently in the process of regenerating the site to meet the needs of all members of the community, whether they are just starting out on the property ladder or wanting to settle down with a young family.
