AFFORDABLE LUXURY AT LIFE

Wednesday, June 08, 2011

House hunters searching for the good life need look no further than Westpoint Homes' LIFE @ Bonnington development!

Ideally located between Newhaven Road and Broughton Road, LIFE enjoys a prominent position amid Leith's fashionable shore area and the New Town; a dynamic part of town which has enjoyed a series of major regeneration initiatives.

Westpoint's very affordable Shared Equity scheme means buyers can make the most out of life from day 1, with a deposit of only £6,250 required to make a move possible onto the coveted Edinburgh property ladder.

Graham McNeil, Development Director at Westpoint Homes, said: "The market in Scotland has shown a real appetite for shared equity incentives.  The attraction of a substantially lower deposit and lower than expected capital & interest monthly mortgage re-payments has been the clincher for most."  

"This incentive has very quickly turned high interest levels and footfall into actual sales and we now have only 4 apartments available.  The majority of clients would have rented a home otherwise, but when they realised they did have a sufficient deposit and could pay the same amount per month for a capital and interest re-payment mortgage as they would for a rental property, the shared equity purchase for many was the best route to go down."

Thanks to Westpoint Homes' unique fixtures and fittings which include flooring and blinds PLUS high-gloss kitchens with integrated fridge freezer and dishwasher, and outstanding bathrooms and en-suites, would-be buyers only need a bed and a sofa to set-up home.  

Maria Booth, Westpoint Sales added: "The high quality fixtures and fittings have been the main talking point for those who have purchased or visited the development given that there are no hidden extras; every home has been finished to a very high standard and our own view is that our specifications stand head and shoulders above the competition representing superb value for money; I would urge buyers to take a look for themselves!"

Maria continues "The advantage of having fully complete homes means that the last few buyers will see exactly what they are getting for their money."

The Sales Office is open four days Friday to Monday from 11am to 5.30pm.

Prices at LIFE at Bonnington for the 4 remaining apartments start from £180,000
