Couple use help to buy to upsize to their dream home

A couple have recently been able to secure their dream home, using proceeds from a previous house sale and the Help to Buy scheme at Marston Fields in Bedfordshire.

Dominic (46) and James (41) Chapman-Hunt recently decided that they wanted to buy their first house together and upsize and they fell in love with an Eden style property at the David Wilson Homes development in Marston Moretaine.

Dominic said: “We used the Help to Buy scheme which meant that we could move up a step to the house we wanted and the process was really easy to do and made a huge difference to us.The sales team at Marston Fields were great. From the initial contact with them,through to moving in day and beyond, the whole team made us feel like they really want us to love our new home. Little touches like the fantastic welcome pack to regular check ins are really lovely and we would highly recommend David Wilson to family and friends as they have gone the extra mile in making us feel special.”

The Government backed Help to Buy scheme allows buyers to purchase a home with just a 5% deposit and a 75% mortgage. The remaining 20% is funded by an equity loan, interest-free for the first five years and repayable on the sale on the home.

The couple chose a new build property because everything is built to the latest standards. Dom and James in their new house that they got thanks to the Help to Buy scheme

James said: “I really liked the idea of a new build home because everything in the property needs a lot less maintenance than buying a previously owned house. We had always liked the difference in quality that David Wilson houses had and one of our friends had moved into a David Wilson home nearby and we were very impressed with the build and design. Now, we both can’t wait to get back to our house at the end of a busy day. Just getting through the front door and settling down is amazing. We still find ourselves walking around the house, amazed that we own such a wonderful home.”

Located in the sought after village of Marston Moretaine, Marston Fields is the perfect mix of rural and village life, making it a beautiful location for a range of homebuyers. 

Dominic added: “Marston Moretaine is a small village but has some great amenities from restaurants and pubs to shops and food stores. Having the Millennium Country Park on our doorstep, with Milton Keynes and Bedford a short distance away, means we’re so close to everything, especially workand the M1.”

Marston Fields currently has a range of three, four and five bedroom homes to reserve with prices starting from £309,995.
