New housing scheme helps first time buyers in Gloucester


Buyers looking for affordable city living are getting the chance to snap up one of six properties at a landmark housing scheme on the outskirts of Gloucester.

Award-winning Bromford Homes has launched a range of two bedroom houses at its Kings Copse development in Quedgeley, with prices starting from just £60,000*.

The new-build homes are available through HomeBuy Shared Ownership – a scheme that allows people to purchase shares of their own home, rather than the more expensive option of buying a property outright.

Beverley Hall, spokesperson for Bromford Homes, explained: “HomeBuy Shared Ownership gives you the same rights and responsibilities of owning your own home, you’ll just share the ownership with Bromford Homes.

“You simply purchase a share and pay lower monthly payments than if you’d have bought outright. The more shares you buy, the less you pay. There’s no catch – we’re here especially to help you get onto the housing ladder.”

Kings Copse lies in the attractive parish of Quedgeley, which lies on the bank of the River Severn. The village has a range of amenities and there is a local Tesco store just two miles away from the development. Gloucester city centre and its wealth of shops, bars and restaurants are just three miles away.

Buyers can choose from two different house types, including The Buckthorn and The Chester. Each property has a fitted kitchen, attractive living room with patio doors leading to a rear garden, downstairs cloakroom, two double bedrooms and well-appointed bathroom. There is also full gas-fired central heating, double glazing and high performance insulation throughout and a 10 year National House Building Council (NHBC) New Home Warranty.
