Home of the Day – Apartment at Ridgeway Views, Barratt London
Posted 9 February 2021 by
Keith OsborneThe WhatHouse? team reports on our current favourite new build home for sale – it’s a two-bedroom apartment at Ridgeway Views, part of Barratt London’s contribution to a landmark development in Mill Hill in the north London Borough of Barnet.
Plot 357 is a second-floor apartment in Isaacs House and at £575,000 qualifies for Help to Buy London, the government-backed scheme which is being re-launched to assist first-time buyers in getting on the property ladder. This property offers two double bedrooms, one of which comes with an en-suite shower room. The individually designed kitchen comes complete with integrated appliances, and the open plan living/dining area opens out directly onto a south-facing corner balcony.
For this property, with Help to Buy London, a deposit of 5% will be required – £28,750. The government provides an equity loan for 40% of the price (£230,000), so the buyer will need a mortgage for 55%, in this case £316,250.
Homebuyers at Ridgeway Views can relax on the communal terrace overlooking beautiful countryside or take advantage of the various other communal outdoor spaces, including a play area, a fitness trail and gently landscaped gardens. Also available to residents are a gym and concierge service, as well as a number of ‘Outstanding’ and ‘Good’ rated schools close to the development. The new homes will include two- and three-bedroom apartments, as well as an exclusive collection of four- and five-bedroom detached houses. All homes come with parking.
Ridgeway Views is a 47-acre development on the site of the old National Institute for Medical Research, which offers the best of both for those wanting to experience the benefits of living in the countryside, with easy commuter access to central London. Barratt London has focused on preserving and increasing the development’s ecological profile, creating habitats for local wildlife including bird boxes and a hedgehog passage through the residential area.
Currently, the range of two- and three-bedroom apartments at Ridgeway Views ranges from £575,000 to £910,000. Find out more from Barratt London.
