A Few Homes Left For a 2020 Move At Canton Development
There are fewer than 20 homes available to purchase and move into this year at The Mill as the popular development in Canton, Cardiff draws to a close.
The Mill is Lovell Homes’ most in-demand development across the entire UK and is selling a whole year ahead of its initial plans. It is a riverside collection of one- and two-bedroom apartments, as well as two-, three- and four-bedroom houses.
Julie Bowen, regional sales director at Lovell, said: “We’re delighted that The Mill has been so popular, especially during the ongoing pandemic, with appointments at The Mill filling up fast! I’d encourage any prospective purchasers to enquire without delay, as homes at The Mill are selling exceptionally quickly.
“This is the last chance for buyers to purchase a brand new home at The Mil as we only have a selected number of apartments and house types remaining before the development sells out. It’s an excellent time for buyers to move with the government-backed Help to Buy Wales: Equity Loan available and government changes to Land Transaction Tax, meaning buyers can now get more for their money.”
One of the properties remaining for sale is the three-bedroom ‘Birchwood’ style home, set over three floors. There’s a cloakroom, utility room and integral garage on the ground floor, open-plan kitchen/dining room opposite a spacious living room with a balcony and Juliet balcony on its first floor, and three bedrooms and a family bathroom on the top floor, with bedroom one benefitting from an en suite shower room.
In all, current availability at The Mill includes one-bedroom apartments priced from £148,495, two-bedroom apartments priced from £192,995, three-bedroom homes priced from £294,995 and four-bedroom homes priced from £319,995. There is currently no Land Transaction Tax (Stamp Duty) to pay on properties up to the value of £250,000 on all sales taking place before 31 March 2021.
The Mill is creating a new urban village in Cardiff by bringing 800 contemporary homes to the former Arjo Wiggins paper mill site. They include 358 homes for open market sale by Lovell and 442 homes for rent by the Tirion group, which will be managed by Cadwyn Housing Association. The scheme is going ahead with the support of the Welsh Government and financial backing from the Principality Building Society, and is being developed by the Tirion Group in partnership with Lovell.
The Mill is open by appointment only, from 10.00am to 5.00pm seven days a week.

Case study: Charlotte and Alexander Kirkup
Charlotte Kirkup and her husband Alexander first moved to The Mill three years ago as first-time buyers. At the time, the two-bedroom ‘Ashton’ home style home was perfectly suited to the couple, until Charlotte fell pregnant with their daughter, now a year old, and the family required more space.
The couple knew they wanted to stay at The Mill and with the aid of the government-backed Help to Buy: Equity Loan scheme, they recently upsized to the spacious three-bedroom, three-storey ‘Birchwood’ style home.
Charlotte said: “We love the style of the ‘Birchwood’ and our living space is everything that we have ever wanted. We also love the utility and garage on the ground floor as we now have so much storage space. My favourite part about coming home is when I arrive on the drive, I know that the beautiful home is ours. My home is my safe place, where my best family memories are made.
“We have also met some of our very best friends living at The Mill and it has improved my quality of life to no end.”Alexander added: “The sales executives have been wonderful and have supported us all the way – it was very difficult to move house with a young baby. They were so kind and patient, and always looking to help us out where they could. I would 100% recommend, time and time again.”
