David Wilson Homes opens new show apartment at Saffron Walden development

With just ten two-bedroom apartments remaining for sale at the development, David Wilson Homes is opening a new show apartment at Oakhill Park in Saffron Walden in Essex this weekend (Saturday 14th and Sunday 15th January 2012). Priced from £189,995, these properties are expected to be particularly popular with first-time buyers as they are available with funding from the Government-backed FirstBuy scheme.

"Initial interest in the apartments has been high and following the launch of the show apartment we anticipate that the two bedroom homes will be snapped up quickly," says Dean Bellamy, Project Sales Manager for David Wilson Eastern.

The development is not only within easy striking distance of the station at Audley End (just a couple of miles away), but also close to some delightful Essex countryside. Proximity to the M11 brings Cambridge, London and Stansted Airport all within easy reach of home at Oakhill Park.

FirstBuy has proved to be popular with first-time buyers and those getting back into the property market since the scheme was launched by the Government last year. It is a great help to those otherwise struggling to save enough money to buy their own property. With FirstBuy, they need only a five per cent deposit and 75% mortgage, with the balance provided in the form of an equity loan from the housebuilder and the Government's Homes and Communities Agency. This loan is repayable at any time over the next 25 years, or when the property is sold. Purchasers have 100% ownership of their home from day one, however.

Dean adds: "FirstBuy has been a great success at a number of the David Wilson Homes developments across the region and we anticipate its popularity will continue at Oakhill Park."
