Top offers for new homebuyers in Northamptonshire
With its excellent transport links, Northampton and the surrounding area is becoming a hotspot for homebuyers. With Birmingham not far away, those after a new home in Northampton can make the most of both quiet country life, while never being too far out of the hub of things.
Deposit paid
Courtesy of Smart New Homes, moving to the area could not be easier or more affordable. Its deposit paid scheme means that any deposit a would-be homeowner already has will be matched, giving people the chance to get their hands on a better mortgage rate. For example, a five per cent deposit will be matched with a further five per cent, or, in some cases, increased even further. In either situation, those looking for that perfect home in Northampton can ensure they get a good deal. The interest-free loan will last up to ten years, meaning there is no pressure to repay straight away. Furthermore, Smart New Homes may also be able to pay stamp duty and legal fees.
Among the developments to offer this to new homebuyers is the Copse, a selection of George Wimpey homes in Kettering. Set in Mawsley Village, there is a range of two and three-bedroom apartments and townhouses on offer, starting from as little as £109,995. What's more, it also won the Daily Telegraph's Your New Homes award for Best New Build Village, so homeowners can rest assured their new property is among the best.
Another option is Seagrave Manor, which is to be found a short distance from Kettering. Its three and four-bedroom detached homes and townhouses could prove just the thing for families thinking of relocating to Northampton, as the 29 homes benefit from the stunning countryside and close proximity to amenities. Prices range between £159,995 and £249,995, with homebuyers also able to benefit from the excellent deposit paid offer which is currently running.
Homebuy Direct
The government-backed Homebuy Direct initiative is another way of securing a perfect home in Northamptonshire with less hassle. Those who qualify can pay as little as 70 per cent for their brand new home, with the remaining percentage paid back either when 25 years has passed or the home is sold or transferred. It is aimed at giving people the opportunity to own a new build home by giving them help with financing the move.
Miller Homes' Royal Gardens development is currently offering the Homebuy Direct scheme and boasts a number of different properties to suit every taste. It is just 15 minutes away from the centre of Daventry, with Daventry Country Park also just a stone's throw away.
