Prospective purchasers of a stunning new home at Taylor Wimpey’s Compass Point development in Southampton will need to act fast to secure their dream property for 2014.

Savvy buyers have been quick to snap up the available plots for 2013 and the last phase has completely sold out at this in-demand development.

But with a new collection of homes just released ready for a 2014 move, there is still time for house-hunters to ensure they don’t miss out on a brand new place.

Fiona Creed, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “It is no surprise that Compass Point has proven such a hit with homebuyers as it boasts some superb house designs and a highly-desirable location close to the centre of Southampton.

“And with a new range of properties now available for 2014, there couldn’t be a better time for would-be buyers to come and find out what the development has to offer.”

There is a superb selection of homes available to reserve now at Compass Point, including one and two-bedroom apartments from just £144,000 and four-bedroom houses from £245,000.

The Plot 58 ‘Twyford’ end-of-terrace town house, for example, is priced at only £245,000 and features a spacious living/dining room opening through French doors to the private rear garden, plus a kitchen/breakfast room and a guest cloakroom off the entrance hallway.

Upstairs, the first-floor landing leads to two bedrooms and a main bathroom, while an en-suite master bedroom and a further bedroom can be found on the top floor. Outside there is allocated parking.

The Government’s Help to Buy shared equity scheme is available at Compass Point, enabling first-time buyers and existing homeowners to secure their new home for 80% of its full price, including a deposit as low as 5%.

Help to Buy involves a Government loan of up to 20% and is available on new-build properties up to the value of £600,000. There is no salary cap for homebuyers taking advantage of the scheme.

Compass Point enjoys a convenient location in the established residential community of Maybush, just three miles from the centre of Southampton and only a short hop from the rural splendour of the New Forest.

There’s a choice of local supermarkets right on the doorstep while the West Quay Shopping Centre offers a wide selection of big name stores in the heart of the city.

Parents will appreciate the range of schools for children of all ages close by, including nursery and primary schools within walking distance and secondary schools, including Regents Park Community College, less than a mile from home.

For commuters, the nearby M271 offers quick access to the M27 and the region’s motorway network, while frequent rail services operate from Southampton station to London and all of the nation’s major cities.
