HOW TO SKIP A STEP ON THE HOUSING LADDER IN CONGLETON

A DEPOSIT boost worth around £25,000 could help homebuyers in Congleton to skip a rung on the property ladder.

Elan Homes is offering a 5% deposit boost on selected new homes at Oak Grange on Back Lane.

The scheme is designed to increase buyers’ borrowing power by making their money go further. Available to a range of purchasers, it could help those who are perhaps being held back from moving for a variety of reasons.

Elan regional sales and marketing director Marie Morris explained: “When people think of a deposit boost, they often assume it’s only for first time buyers but that’s not necessarily the case. It’s a great option for people looking to climb the housing ladder and could help them skip a step, enabling them to move to a home they can grow into rather than out of. It may be that they don’t have as much equity in their current property as they’d like, perhaps they’ve had a change of circumstances, or they simply want to access better mortgage rates with lower monthly repayments by putting down a larger deposit.”

Current availability at Oak Grange includes three, four and five-bedroom homes.

On a three-bedroom semi-detached Darrington style property, priced from £34,995, the offer of a 5% deposit boost amounts to £16,749.

For those looking for a larger home, the incentive is available on selected five-bedroom designs including the Leven and Kendal house types. On the Leven, priced from £524,995, the deposit boost is worth £26,249.

On a Kendal, priced at £484,995, Elan is offering a deposit contribution of £24,249.

The Kendal offers 1,493 sq ft of carefully considered living space, including a lounge at the front, complemented by an open plan kitchen and dining room with direct access to the rear garden. There’s also a handy utility and convenient cloakroom.

Upstairs, there are four double bedrooms, a single bedroom and sleek family bathroom. The main bedroom benefits from an en-suite and walk-in wardrobe.

Elan’s new homes in Congleton are just a short drive from the town centre, where independent shops, high street favourites, and everyday essentials like pharmacies and supermarkets are all close at hand.

The homes are within the catchment area of well-regarded schools, while commuters benefit from excellent connections. Congleton train station is only around 10 minutes away by car, and Manchester Airport can be reached in approximately 30 minutes. The new Congleton Link Road provides swift access to the M6, putting Macclesfield, Stoke-on-Trent, Northwich, Chester, and Manchester all within an hour’s drive.

Show homes at Oak Grange are open Thursday to Monday from 10am to 5pm.
