Buyers hopeful of owning a home at Barratt’s exciting Stockmoor Parade development in North Petherton, near Bridgwater need to be quick – there are just three houses remaining. Interest has been high, with many buyers taking advantage of schemes like HomeBuy Direct to secure a place on the property ladder. Often, those accepted need only find 70 per cent of the purchase price on a new home – with the other 30 per cent funded by a joint equity loan from Barratt and the Government’s Homes and Communities Agency (HCA). And, for those looking to move up, a part exchange deal makes the buying process a whole lot easier. The remaining homes are the Buchanan, a three bedroom design with a detached garage at £175,000 and the Suffolk and Suffolk Special – both three bedroom, three storey town houses with garage – available from £175,950. Located just minutes away from the thriving town of Bridgwater, Stockmoor Parade is close to junction 24 of the M5 motorway, which offers easy access to Bristol to the north and Taunton and Exeter to the south. read more
