McCarthy & Stone Downsize in style
Sign up for a stress-free move to Ashbrae and save up to £12,000 on a home in this popular suburban property hotspot
MCCARTHY and Stone is giving retirees who are looking to downsize in style the chance to make an easy move to its Ashbrae Lifestyle Living development in Newton Mearns by making full use of its “Move for Free” offer. This helpful package of incentives is available for a limited time only and buyers stand to save up to £12,000 on their move.
The incentive, from the UK’s leading retirement housebuilder, will see buyers save on Land & Buildings Transaction
Tax (LBTT), receive £2,500 towards estate agency costs, as well as £1,000 towards legal fees and all removal costs will be paid, if they reserve a new apartment on or before December 21, 2019 and complete by April 25, 2020. New visitors to Ashbrae will also receive a £10 M&S shopping voucher.
Lifestyle Living apartments are designed exclusively for over 55s and Ashbrae presents a rare opportunity to downsize in real style and enjoy contemporary and convenient living in one of Glasgow’s property hotspots. Located on Crookfur Road, each apartment at Ashbrae includes either a private balcony or terrace; and an open-plan fitted kitchen with integrated Neff appliances is a key feature in each individual property.
Walk-in wardrobes, double-glazing, and natural floor coverings in both the bathroom and the kitchen make stylish additions in each apartment, and prices for the remaining two bedroom apartments start from £294,000.
The development is located within easy reach of the superb local amenities in the desirable suburb of Newton Mearns, offering buyers with the opportunity to own one of the most exclusive addresses in Glasgow. The range of local leisure activities will appeal to a wide range of buyers, and Patterton train station provides easy travel into Glasgow, which is ideal for those wishing to take advantage of everything the city has to offer.
There is a stylish new show complex to inspire buyers to make their move here, and the development features a lift to all floors, a secure video entry system, concierge, and landscaped gardens, as well as allocated car parking. Services such as window cleaning, communal space maintenance and buildings insurance will also be included, giving homeowners ultimate peace of mind as well as convenience.
Ashbrae will also get into the festive spirit by hosting a Festive Open Day on Friday December 6, 2019, when from 1pm to 3pm potential buyers have the opportunity to take a tour of the new show apartment while also enjoying some mulled wine, mince pies and carol singing. This event will be the perfect opportunity to find out more about Lifestyle Living at Ashbrae from McCarthy and Stone’s dedicated sales team at the development.
Hannah Ireland, Marketing Manager for McCarthy and Stone in Scotland, adds:
“To help buyers make that move sooner rather than later, our ‘Move for Free’ offer at our Ashbrae development in Newton Mearns is designed to offer a real helping hand to buyers who are considering their next move. We know that removing some of the financial barriers that can generally prevent retirees from moving gives people the confidence they need to be able make a step-change into the new lifestyle they’ve perhaps been considering for a while.
“It also aims to encourage retirees who are perhaps thinking about their future needs to proactively consider the different housing options and lifestyle benefits available to them now. With just 30 apartments at the development and some already sold, I would urge interested buyers to get in touch with us to make their move.
“We’re also keen for prospective buyers to keep Friday December 6 free – our Festive Open event is an ideal chance for them to meet their potential new neighbours. Our Festive Open event is just the perfect way to see Lifestyle Living first hand and to get more information from our helpful sales consultant who will be hosting the event.”
