DEPOSIT BOOST AS NEW HOMES IN POYNTON PROGRESS

A DEPOSIT boost, potentially worth more than £40,000, is being offered on selected new homes in Poynton, where the first residents have begun moving in.

Elan Homes is building 133 new homes across 7.47 acres of a 20.45 acre site on Hazelbadge Road.

Show homes opened in July and the homebuilder recently celebrated the latest milestone – welcoming the first residents. To mark the occasion and to help buyers achieve their dream move, the homebuilder is offering a 5% deposit contribution on selected properties.

On the five-bedroom detached Portland, priced from £834,995 and almost ready to move into, the deposit boost is worth £41,750.

Marie Morris, sales director for Elan Homes in the North, said: “The first residents moving in is a milestone for any new housing development. Feedback from homeowners is that they’re looking forward to spending the winter in an energy efficient new home in Poynton.

“The majority of purchasers so far have been locals, already living in Poynton and the surrounding areas, including families drawn to the well-regarded schools nearby and people who work in Manchester city centre, which is around 40 minutes way, including walking to the local station.

“The good news for those thinking of moving to a new home in Poynton is that we’ve introduced deposit boost scheme to help buyers’ money go further. Put simply, if you have a 5% deposit, we could boost it to 10% by matching your deposit. This could improve the range of homes and mortgage options available to would be homeowners. With deposit boost, there’s potential to access more competitive interest rates, usually reserved for those with more substantial savings, and enjoy lower monthly mortgage repayments.

“Plus, because our homes are energy efficient, they can be purchased using green mortgages. These are available from selected lenders and in some cases have better interest rates than traditional mortgage products. Buyers can use the mortgage checker on our website to help work out how much they could borrow and how much their repayments would be without affecting their credit score.”

Current availability at Hazelfields includes a good choice of three, four and five-bedroom homes, with prices from £489,995.

A generously proportioned, double fronted, detached home, set out over three floors, the Portland is the largest property within the development., It offers 2,236 sq ft of living space.

The lounge with feature bay window is on one side of the hallway, with the dedicated dining room on the opposite side. The open plan kitchen, dining area and family room are at the rear of the property, with French doors opening out onto the garden. There’s also a handy utility and convenient cloakroom.

Three bedrooms, including the main bedroom with en-suite and dressing area, are on the first floor, along with the family bathroom.

Two further bedrooms and a shower room are on the top floor.

The Portland includes an upgraded specification with granite kitchen worktops and turfed rear garden.
