Carronvale Homes Press Release

Carronvale Homes has unveiled a new show apartment and a package of assistance to help those looking to get on the housing ladder at Kirkton Mews, Bathgate. Not fancy incentives or ‘free gifts’, but practical help, the sort of assistance that genuinely helps those dreaming of buying a new home.

Carronvale Homes is offering what many others are finding impossible in the current economic climate, up to 100 per cent mortgages on selected homes.  Even better, the company is also offering 'Sickness, Unemployment and Accident cover' for three years, worth £1000 per month.

And the new homes at Kirkton Mews could qualify for the Government’s shared equity scheme of up to 60/40 per cent split, part of the its ‘Low-cost Initiative for First-Time Buyers’ programme (LIFT).

The LIFT shared equity scheme, allows first-time buyers on low incomes to purchase a percentage of the property, with a housing association funding the rest as an equity loan, and is available on selected plots.

The shared equity can be as much as 60/40 for two-bedroom homes up to £120,000, for example at Kirkton Mews a home costing £120,000 can be bought for only £72,000. The sales advisers have the details of this and the other schemes available at this popular development.

Chief Executive, Jim Preston explains: "Over the past few weeks we have been working hard to come up with funding packages to help first-time buyers, and those who already own a home, move to a new build home.”

The luxury one, two and three-bedroom apartments are perfect for first time buyers, those looking to downsize or those who just enjoy the convenience of apartment living, and with prices starting from only £109.995, offer excellent value for money.

Jim adds: “We believe this is just what first time buyers need to help them get on the housing ladder. The low interest rates coupled with our assistance package make this a good time to buy a new home. A visit to the showhome will show the high specification on offer.”

The specification includes lifts to all apartments, fully fitted kitchens with oven, hob and hood; washer/dryer; fridge/freezer; and most have ensuite facilities. Private parking and audio entry system is also included.

The development commands an elevated position offering panoramic views to the Pentland Hills. A visit to the development or the photo gallery on the Carronvale Homes website will show just how awesome the views are.

Commuting to Edinburgh or Glasgow presents little problem with Bathgate close to the M8 and M9 motorways. There is a railway station on King Street offering a fast and convenience service direct to Edinburgh.
