Last Chance For Shared Ownership At Oxfordshire Site

Demonstrating the popularity of the area, Catalyst has just one two-bedroom Shared Ownership home remaining in the latest phase at Hopefield Grange, a multi-phase development of 270 homes in Benson.

Set within Oxfordshire’s countryside, the high street is only a three-minute walk away, featuring plenty of eateries and retailers, whilst picturesque walks along the River Thames are just a 10-minute stroll from the development.

Steve Pickering, head of sales and marketing (Counties) at Catalyst, commented: “We are pleased that demand at Hopefield Grange has remained strong, resulting in just one apartment remaining in the latest phase of the development. The rarity of Shared Ownership in this area has made this development particularly popular, as an ever-growing number of first-time buyers discover how much the part-buy, part-rent scheme can help them.”

Shared Ownership is a government-backed scheme which allows purchasers to buy a percentage share of the property, and pay rent on the remaining portion. Buyers only require a deposit and mortgage to cover the share they are purchasing, helping those with lower savings and income to buy their first home. As and when they can afford to, buyers can purchase larger shares in their home until they own their home outright, through a process called staircasing.

Offering the best of contemporary living, all homes at Hopefield Grange are completed to a high standard, with all kitchens featuring integrated Indesit appliances, bathrooms kitted out with white Roca sanitaryware. All homes feature private outdoor space in the form of a balcony and residents have an allocated parking space.

Well located for commuting, Oxford and Reading are only 20 minutes and 26 minutes respectively from Hopefield Grange. From Cholsey railway station, which is a 13-minute drive from Hopefield Grange, residents can access the capital in just under an hour. Alternatively, from Didcot Parkway, which is a 20-minute drive from the development, residents can access Oxford in 15 minutes and London in 44 minutes.

Ideal for families, there are schools catered to all ages locally, with Benson Church of England Primary School and the Wallingford School both being awarded with a ‘Good’ Ofsted rating and under a 15-minute drive away.
