Grand Union presents an opportunity for aspiring homeowners with the introduction of thirty shared ownership homes, crafted by Crest Nicholson in collaboration with Habitare Homes. For those aiming to embark on the journey of home ownership, this initiative offers a financially viable entry point. Pricing starts at ¨£119,000 for a 35% share of a two-bedroom home and edges up to ¨£143,500 for a similar share of a three-bedroom residence. To cater to a wider audience's financial capacities, shares as small as 10% are available, contingent upon an individual's affordability assessment.

These homes are not just about ownership but also about the quality of living. Each home is designed with contemporary living in mind, featuring modern kitchens, family bathrooms, an en-suite, and complete flooring across the entire property. This setup ensures a ready-to-live-in experience from day one.

Understanding the challenges of accumulating large sums for down payments, the scheme requires a minimum of just a 5% deposit. It opens doors for those who are not currently homeowners and are looking to step on the property ladder. However, potential owners must register with Help to Buy and obtain a reference number to proceed with a shared ownership application, ensuring that the process is streamlined and accessible to those who meet the criteria.
