Affordable village living with new Shared Ownership homes in Gomshall

Research has revealed that the South East region has the highest house prices outside of London for first time buyers, requiring an average deposit of £59,075. Providing a more budget friendly route onto the housing ladder, Abri Homes has now launched its Shared Ownership homes at Tillingbourne Gardens in the village of Gomshall, Guildford.

The collection of one and two-bedroom Shared Ownership apartments will start from £88,500 based on a 30% share. Requiring a 5% deposit of £4,425, with monthly payments of £1,118 (including £568 mortgage payments, £473.23 rent and an estimated monthly service charge of £77.11*) buyers can experience countryside living at a more affordable cost than average homes in the area.

Set in a charming village location in the Surrey Hills, residents will benefit from an abundance of green space on the doorstep, including the Newlands Corner Nature Reserve. Nearby amenities, shops, restaurants and pubs are also a stone’s throw away, including ‘Pub of the Year’, The Gomshall Mill, set in a refurbished 11thcentury Mill.

Meanwhile for commuters, regular services from Gomshall train station reach London in just over an hour.

All of the Shared Ownership homes include energy efficient features and appliances such as air source heat pumps, to keep energy bills and running costs low.

Stuart Hensby, Sales and Marketing Director at Abri said: “First time buyers shouldn’t have to sacrifice on location or quality to afford their first home. Shared Ownership works for a whole range of buyers, from first time buyers to downsizers, offering an affordable and flexible path to home ownership.

“Tillingbourne Gardens provides the best of what country living has to offer, while still being within commuting distance to Guildford and London. We are now looking forward to handing over the keys to our first residents.”

Shared Ownership is a scheme designed to help aspiring homeowners by enabling them to purchase between a 10% to 75% share of a property, while paying a reduced rent to Abri on the remaining amount.
