SPACIOUS WATERSIDE HOMES NOW AVAILABLE THROUGH SHARED OWNERSHIP AT ROYAL ALBERT WHARF

SHARED OWNERSHIP : Recent research has shown a rise in demand for properties in picturesque waterside locations as buyers become increasingly drawn to the fresh air, open space and well-being benefits that accompany a waterside property[1]. Home hunters whose top priority is a stylish riverside home, paired with the lifestyle benefits that it brings, should look towards Notting Hill Genesis’ latest release of three-bedroom Shared Ownership homes, with parking, at Royal Albert Wharf.

Occupying an impressive setting looking out onto the dockside and Victorian pumphouse, this particular collection of homes will be the final opportunity for buyers to purchase a waterside property at Royal Albert Wharf – ready to move into now, those wanting to take their place by the river should book their viewing now to avoid disappointment.

Thanks to the availability of Shared Ownership, buyers at Royal Albert Wharf have the chance to buy a share of a home’s value, between 25% and 75%, while paying a subsidised rent on the remaining share. The lower deposit level required with Shared Ownership, means purchasers need only put down a deposit on the share they purchase and not the full market value of the property. With a 10% deposit starting from £12,375 prospective buyers are able to become a homeowner with a lower level of savings than if they were to buy the same home outright. Purchasers can choose to buy additional shares on their property as and when they can afford to, staircasing right up to 100%.

James Munson, Head of Marketing at Notting Hill Genesis, comments: “Royal Albert Wharf’s unique waterside position is a fantastic location for first-time buyers in search of a better quality of life whilst still being able to enjoy living and working in the city. Its vibrant new community and relaxed atmosphere makes Royal Albert Wharf a great place to call home.”
