Housebuilder David Wilson Homes is offering 27 Discount Market Sale one-bedroom apartments at its Spitfire Green development, near Ramsgate. All homes are available for eligible buyers to purchase at 20% below open market value – a significant discount to help those looking to get onto the property ladder.
After success last year in the launch of Discount Market Sale homes at Barratt Homes’ Spitfire Green, David Wilson Kent has released further low-cost homes at the development. Available to those who live, work or have a connection to Thanet, the homes include allocated parking and electric car charging points as well as a stylish and airy open-plan kitchen/lounge/dining with modern finishings, perfect for buyers looking to move into a space right away.
Surrounded by 4.5 acres of open green space, homes at Spitfire Green allow residents to live peacefully alongside nature. Additionally, the development is located just three miles away from the coastline, offering prospective buyers the luxury of living nearby both soothing blue spaces and refreshing green spaces.
Natalie Perry, Sales and Marketing Director for David Wilson Kent, commented: “At a time when the rental market consumes a huge chunk of people’s earnings, David Wilson Kent is committed to providing affordable options for local people hoping to swap from the rental market to owning their own property. With Rightmove data suggesting that majority of flats sold over the last year in Ramsgate were purchased for an average of £169,626 , those eligible to buy through our Low-Cost Homes scheme can save up to £28,826 on their home – a huge saving that I hope that will uplift and empower those who would otherwise find it difficult to purchase a property of their own.”
Spitfire Green is situated to the north of Ramsgate, taking its name from the town’s rich RAF history. Ramsgate benefits from several good transport links, with the newly completed Thanet Parkway Station offering high-speed services to Ashford and London, just a 7-minute drive from the development.
There is also an array of pubs, restaurants, high street stores, GP surgeries and supermarkets in the town centre, whilst Westwood Retail Park is just a five-minute drive away. Additionally, Ramsgate seafront will benefit from a £60m investment as the Pleasurama funfair is redeveloped, while the town and its surrounding areas will benefit from £500m of regeneration money over the next three to five years.
Prices for Discount Market Sale homes at Spitfire Green will start at £141,000 for a one-bedroom apartment. David Wilson Kent will also be launching 133 new homes at its Roman Walk development in Minster later in the year. This site will offer one-bedroom apartments to four-bedroom homes with 30% of homes being affordable.
