Property hunters in an attractive East Hampshire market town have the rare chance to snap up a brand new, purpose-built apartment.
Leading housebuilder Persimmon Homes has included apartments on its Barley Fields development off London Road – the only new build properties of this type currently available in the area.
Linda Humphrey, sales manager for Persimmon Homes South Coast, said: “We are very well known for our family homes, which have proved hugely popular at Barley Fields, but many people might not be aware that we also have apartments, with parking, at this site.
“These cleverly-designed and surprisingly spacious homes are very light and airy, with a dual aspect living room, fitted kitchen, two bedrooms and a modern bathroom – perfect for anyone starting out or starting over.
“With prices from just £179,950 these offer a brilliant way to get onto the housing ladder or a good option for anyone looking to relocate or downsize.
“Alton offers the best of both worlds – a historical market town within commuting distance of London. The excellent local schools make it a highly desirable place to live and we are delighted to be able to create homes to suit many different types of buyer here.”
Persimmon is able to offer the Government’s Help To Buy scheme at Alton, meaning qualifying customers can secure a property with a deposit of just five per cent.
Linda added: “Help To Buy has been a real boost to the housing market as it brings home ownership within reach of many more people. Our sales team at Barley Fields can advise on this and Persimmon’s part exchange scheme – just visit www.persimmonhomes.com or call into the development to find out more.”
