Legal & General Affordable Homes launches new four-bedroom homes at Carter Meadows
Legal & General Affordable Homes is launching a new collection of four-bedroom Shared Ownership houses at Carter Meadows in Latchingdon, Essex to help buyers take their first step on the property ladder.
The new community at Carter Meadows includes two, three and four-bedroom detached and semi-detached houses with gardens in the idyllic village of Latchingdon, Essex. The new collection of four-bedroom houses will offer more families a fantastic opportunity to put down roots in this charming area and provide an alternative path to homeownership.
Each house at Carter Meadows has an open plan living area full of natural light, well-appointed interiors and integrated appliances – equipped with everything needed for modern, contemporary living. With private gardens for every house, plus an attached garage to some of the properties, these homes are perfect for growing families.
Set between two rivers, surrounded by farmland and with a nature reserve just down the road, the little village of Latchingdon is a haven of peace and quiet. Situated in the centre of the village, homes at Carter Meadows offer all necessities on their doorstep, with a primary school, shop, post office and local pub within walking distance. Latchingdon is also perfectly placed to benefit from some of Essex’s finest countryside, boasting a variety of walks through the fields of the Dengie Peninsula and along the coastal paths.
For larger shops plus family-friendly activities such as a zoo and museums, the charming town of Maldon is just a 15-minute bus journey away. The buzzing cities of Chelmsford and Southend-on-Sea are also a short drive away, offering a range of restaurants and nightlife, cinemas and live music. And for commuters looking to strike the perfect work-life balance, trains from North Fambridge station provide access to London in under an hour.
Ben Denton, chief executive at Legal & General Affordable Homes, said: “Rising costs are making it harder to save for a deposit, leaving people to feel as though getting onto the property ladder may be out of their reach. That’s one of the benefits of Shared Ownership – the deposits required are often significantly smaller, meaning it could make your dream of homeownership a reality.
“It’s important for us to be able to provide people with a stable and secure place to call home, support with the best possible purchasing experience, and build sustainable communities where everyone can thrive.”
For a minimum 40% share, prices start at £144,000 for a two-bedroom and £159,000 for a three-bedroom house. For a minimum 30% share, prices start at £180,000 for a four-bedroom house.
