Merlion Homes is making buying a new house affordable by offering potential purchasers the chance to buy a new home on a shared equity basis at its new scheme, The Furlongs. Located off Caistor Road in Market Rasen, Lincolnshire, the scheme consists 18 two and three bedroom houses which start from as little as £72,750 for a 75% share.
With the help of the Merlion Assisted Purchasing Scheme (MAPS) a shared equity plan unique to Merlion, homeowners who could usually only aspire to such a lifestyle offered at this scheme are now able to purchase a new home on this development at a reduced percentage of its market value. Additionally Merlion's Assisted Purchase Scheme does not require rent to be paid on the remaining 25%.
Sally Prince, Merlion Homes’ Sales and Marketing Manager added, “If you earn between £20-30k then you may be able to afford one these excellent starter homes. I would encourage anyone who has any connection whether they live, work or have family in West Lindsay that they should come and view our show home and see for themselves”.
Key features include a fitted kitchen with chrome fittings and dark granite effect worktops. Kitchens also include: single fan-assisted oven, gas hob and extractor hood. The bathroom includes a white Twyfords suite, contoured with white glazed ceramic tiles with shower and screens over bath.
All properties have double glazed UPVC patio doors and windows, which maintain energy efficiency and keep costs down. All houses have a minimum of one parking space.
The focal point of Market Rasen is the Market Square, which together with the surrounding streets offers an excellent range of shops and commercial services to cater for all your day-to-day needs.
The Furlongs is well placed for commuting throughout the region. Caister Road is located off the main A46 and the road networks to the main centre of Lincoln, Louth, Grimsby and Scunthorpe are all easy to access.
The Furlongs is your chance to purchase a luxury home in which to enjoy the admirably preserved location of Market Rasen.
