Edinburgh, Lothian -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/09/2011 -- Premium housebuilder, Stewart Milne Homes, has launched a brand new collection of two bedroom apartments at its popular Athena Grange development in Prestonpans.
Released following the sell out of two previous phases of apartments, the latest collection premieres a selection of new styles at the development with prices starting from just £129,950.
Perched on the edge of the development, in an exclusive three-story building, the new apartment types boast bright spacious interiors including a large living room featuring a luxury bay window, a custom design kitchen complete with the latest modern appliances and two generously-sized double bedrooms finished with fitted wardrobes. Some styles also offer master ensuite facilities with shower, an extra large entrance hall and additional storage space.
Finished to the highest specification, each kitchen features a contemporary-chic combination of ceramic tiling, sleek units, a top quality worksurface and stylish chrome fixtures and fittings. Buyers also benefit from leading brand integrated appliances including a stainless steel oven, hob and extractor hood.
Selected properties from the new collection are now available with Stewart Milne Homes’ sought-after First Time Buyer Plan, introduced earlier this year, which offers an ideally affordable route to becoming a homeowner.
Exclusive to first time buyers, the plan is based on a deferred payment scheme and offers the option of either a 90 percent mortgage, reducing monthly repayment requirements to as little as £378, or a 95 percent arrangement ideal for those with a smaller deposit.
Based on the First Time Buyer Plan and a 90 percent mortgage option, a two bedroom apartment at Athena Grange, priced at £129,950, can currently be purchased with a mortgage of just over £97,460 and monthly repayments of £378. Alternatively, with the 95 percent arrangement, the same property can be purchased with a mortgage of £103,960 and a deposit of less than £6,500.
The plan also includes no stamp duty on selected properties and mortgage protection insurance for three years plus carpets, blinds, light fittings, a home cinema system and a choice of furniture for a stylish start as a homeowner.
Athena Grange boasts a wide selection of properties including two-bed apartments, two, three and five-bed terraced homes, two and three bedroom semi-detached homes and three, four and five-bed detached family villas.
