An innovative shared ownership housing development in the Home of Golf has thrown open its doors to prospective buyers showcasing the high quality homes on offer accompanied by a cup of tea.
The Walled Gardens in St Andrews offers buyers the chance to take up part ownership of the properties taking on 75 per cent with the option to buy the further 25 per cent over time.
Developed by Bield, the 78 high quality one and two bedroom apartments are specifically designed for people aged 60 and over. The luxury apartments create the opportunity to downsize and are designed to offer security, independence and peace of mind.
Visitors to the development were able to enjoy a scone with jam and cream or some locally made ice cream in the grounds of the development.
A gloriously sunny day showed off the best of the spacious and airy properties to guests who were interested in purchasing a home in this picturesque part of North East Fife.
Laura Burns, sales negotiator at agent Rettie & Co, says: “The turn-out for the open day was absolutely fantastic.
“Interest has soared following the day and that’s always a good indication of the quality of the homes on offer.”
With the first phase of the development now complete, potential buyers were able to get a real sense of the comfort and beauty of the properties and their surrounding area.
Viewing a fully decorated one bedroom apartment, visitors were impressed with what they saw.
Laura adds: “The interior design is excellent and understated, perfect for anyone to make a property their own.
“Add into this the central location, just a stone’s throw from the town and two of St Andrews beaches, as well as the nearby orchard, and you get a sense of what a great opportunity The Walled Gardens offers buyers.”
The development consists of 78 lavish one and two bedroom apartments which seamlessly blend traditional architecture and construction with the best in modern, energy efficient interiors to make day-to-day living easy, safe and comfortable.
Caryn Innes, head of development at Bield, says: “Purchasing a home through shared ownership creates a fantastic home ownership option for people, it is flexible to suit the homeowner’s personal situation and Bield is on hand to support customers throughout the process.”
