Find an Easy Way onto the property ladder at Kensington Place

FIRST TIME BUYERS in the Derbyshire area are in for a treat as local housebuilder Rippon Homes is making home ownership affordable at its new homes development in Ilkeston.

Kensington Place, in Kensington Gardens, comprises a stunning collection of three- and four-bedroom houses and is situated less than two miles from the M1 providing access to a fantastic transport network.

Plot 35, The Stretton house style, is a prime example of what is on offer at the development and is currently being offered with Rippon Homes’ shared equity scheme, called Easy Way, where the purchaser defers 25% of the payment. This means that the deposit required is just £5,600.

Easy Way allows the purchaser to move into their dream new home for just 75% of the price but still own 100% from day one. The remaining 25% can be paid back after 10 years or when the property is sold, whichever comes sooner.

Tracey McLaren, Sales and Marketing Manager at Rippon Homes, commented, “Kensington Place is a superb development in a brilliant location. The Stretton house style is a fantastic family home and is being offered with our popular shared equity scheme, making it perfect for first time buyers.

“Our shared equity scheme means that the purchaser of plot 35 could potentially secure the property with less than £6000 deposit which is a fantastic offer and will certainly benefit first time buyers.

The Stretton house style is a spacious family home which has a kitchen/dining room to the ground floor and a lounge which features French doors opening out onto the rear garden.

The first floor has three bedrooms and a three piece family bathroom. There is also a cupboard for extra storage space. The property benefits from full gas central heating and UPVC double glazing making it a popular choice from within the Rippon range.

Tracey added, “The Stretton house style is sure to be a hit at Kensington Place so I would advise all interested parties to visit the development now to avoid disappointment.”
