Part exchange with CALA Homes proving popular in Watford

As sales of townhouses have progressed quickly at its Nascot Grange development in Watford - with an average of one property a week being sold since launch in October 2011 - housebuilder CALA Homes has seen a big take-up of its part exchange assistance scheme at the development. It seems many homebuyers are happy to make the most of the company's offer to act as cash buyer for their old home when they upgrade to a new one at Nascot Grange.

"Sales of new homes are strong, but we are keen to help purchasers continue to move on the property ladder in the current market," says Alison Deakin, sales and marketing director of CALA Homes (South). "Using our part exchange scheme, with CALA acting as a chain-free, cash buyer, dreams of buying a new CALA home at Nascot Grange can become a reality, speedily and efficiently. Using Part Exchange also means that there are no estate agents fees."

The ‘Kirby' four-bedroom property has been one of the most popular choices at the development. At around 1,500 sq ft, it offers plenty of accommodation and is priced from £499,950. On the ground floor is an open-plan kitchen and dining area and a pleasant garden room with access to the rear plot. The airy living room on the second floor has a Juliet balcony and the home also come with two bathrooms, four bedrooms (with an en suite to the master bedroom) and an integral garage.

The larger ‘Fir' is another of these new homes in Hertfordshire that have appealed to many buyers. Priced from £584,950, it offers over 1,800 sq ft of living space over three storeys. Next to the integral garage is a sizeable kitchen/breakfast/family area with double French doors, while the first-floor living room has two Juliet balconies. Also on the first floor is one of the bedrooms, along with a study. The master suite, with en suite and fitted wardrobes, along with two more bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the second floor.

Nascot Grange is located in the desirable suburb of Nascot Wood, only a mile from Watford town centre, within easy reach of shops and transport links which include the rail station, for local services and routes to Central London and the Midlands, and the M1 and M25 within just a few minutes' drive.
