Lock 8 launches at The Deck in Runcorn

Following storming success at The Deck in Runcorn, leading house builder Taylor Wimpey North West has just launched ‘Lock 8’, the latest phase of apartments being built at the popular development.

The Deck, which occupies a prime waterfront position in Runcorn, offers a collection of one and two bedroom apartments. The great value for money and stylish design on offer have proved equally attractive to both first time buyers and people seeking an investment opportunity, prompting the house builder to bring the launch of Lock 8 forward.

Stephen Grant, regional sales manager for Taylor Wimpey North West, said: "The stylish collection of apartments available at The Deck are perfect for first time buyers and show that you don’t need to settle for a shabby second-hand pad when searching for your first home.

“There aren’t many places you can buy a brand new home for just over £62,000*, and it’s these low prices that make the development so appealing, as buyers can get far more home for their money.”

Apartments at The Deck start from just £62,008* for a one bedroom apartment through the Easystart scheme and from just £83,258* for a two bedroom apartment.

Under the scheme, first time buyers can purchase a new Taylor Wimpey home for as little as 85% of the price now. Simply pay a 5% deposit on exchange of contracts, and they will help you find a mortgage with an independent financial advisor who will give free advice. Taylor Wimpey will then loan you the remaining 15%, with no rent or interest to pay for up to 10 years.

Stephen adds: “Our Easystart scheme gives those people stuck in the rental rut a real chance of home ownership. It enables them to own 100% of their home from day one, for just 85% of the price, providing those struggling to afford current property prices with the ideal solution."

Taylor Wimpey is urging interested house hunters in a position to buy now to visit The Deck, where they’ll be able to buy off plan and get the pick of the best plots, some of which come with fantastic riverside views.

The Deck is located near to the centre of the old town, enjoying communal recreational areas and a range of retail facilities, with the city of Liverpool just 16 miles away and Chester and Manchester also within easy reach.
