First time buyers struggling to get a foot on the property ladder in Kent are being urged to head down to Redrow’s latest venture – before it is too late!

Only seven properties remain at Debut @ Sittingbourne, after eager home buyers snapped up 93 of the affordable homes since its launch in October.

All seven are one-bedroom homes, in a style which breaks the mould, with bedroom and shower room on the ground floor and open plan kitchen and lounge on the first floor. This innovative layout coupled with high ceilings and French windows opening onto a Juliet balcony create a light airy open plan living area. The homes all come with a single parking space.

Caron Hutchins, sales manager for Redrow Homes (Eastern) said: “Debut offers a lifeline to people who never expected to get their foot on the property ladder. These great homes have been designed with style and affordability in mind – and the reaction we’ve had to them has been phenomenal. If you want to be one of the lucky ones owning a Debut home, then don’t hesitate, they won’t be here for much longer.”

The Debut range features a combination of traditional and modern materials to give a contemporary look that’s visually appealing as well as practical. The overall result is a home that first time buyers can aspire to – brand new, contemporary, built to high quality standards and easy to maintain, as well as affordable.

Much of the cost-saving in Redrow’s Debut homes comes from the way in which they are constructed, using a lightweight structural steel frame and other modern methods of construction, which speeds up the build programme without compromising on quality.

Debut @ Sittingbourne has been helping people get their foot on the property ladder for as little as £62,995*, making them one of the most desirable and achievable properties in the south east. The final houses are available for an initial outlay of just £83,995**.

Caron continued: “There is an option to use the Easi-buy scheme which allows buyers to defer 10% of the price of their new home for up to 10 years on a fixed sum basis, which can be paid back via occasional lump sums, monthly repayments or in whole at any time. In other words, it’s like an interest free loan.”

With a Debut home, budgeting should be effortless, as gas, water and electricity are combined in one monthly charge, so that homes owners know exactly where they stand.

Debut @ Sittingbourne will be located off Jacinth Drive, about one-and-a-half miles from Sittingbourne’s railway station, from where trains to London Victoria or Cannon Street take a little over an hour. There are also easy commuter links to the M25.
