Buyers hoping to snap up a new home within Hazelmere, Laurus Homes’ popular Cheshire development, will need to move quickly – with the final phase of just seven homes now available.

The collection of traditionally designed two- bedroom semi-detached and terraced homes are available exclusively through Shared Ownership, offering buyers an affordable route onto the property ladder with deposits starting from just £2,700*.

Ideal for young professionals looking to commute to one of the major surrounding cities, downsizers after a quieter pace of life, or families looking to put down roots, Hazelmere offers everything from wildlife spaces and ponds through to play areas for a range of ages.

Claire Brenlund, Sales and Marketing Director, comments; “Hazelmere has been a popular development since we launched the first homes in 2019 and we have no doubt the final phase of houses will sell equally as quickly. To be able to purchase a share of a two- bedroom home with a deposit of less than £3,000 is fantastic, and opens the opportunity of home ownership up to a wide range of potential buyers who otherwise might not have been able to take that step.” 

As a government-backed scheme, Shared Ownership offers buyers the chance to buy a share of the home, between 25% and 75%, and pay rent to Laurus Homes on the remaining share. Buying a share of a home can mean a lower deposit and mortgage, making it an ideal solution for first-time buyers, and those looking to get back on the property ladder.

Designed to a high standard, homes are finished in classical red brick with traditional grey slate-style roofs. Inside, light and bright homes are fitted with Symphony kitchens, including built in oven, fridge/freezer and washing machine – helping to reduce necessary outgoings when buyers first move in. Rear gardens are turfed, and each home has designated parking. 

Hazelmere is located in the vibrant village of Haslington, well known for its perfect balance of history, community feel, fantastic walking routes and a number of excellent local pubs. Convenient for nearby Crewe, and with good transport links to Manchester, Liverpool and Chester too, homes at Hazlemere offer the ideal balance of rural living for those looking to step onto the property ladder in the north west.

Haslington has a great choice of local shops, supermarkets, bakeries and restaurants, while bigger stores can be found in the Crewe Market Shopping Centre or Chester, slightly further afield. Well performing local schools include Haslington Primary School and Sandbach School, and multiple pre-school and nursery options are just a short drive.

Nestled between Sandbach and Crewe, with quick direct access to the M6, Hazelmere boast convenient road connections in all directions. Sandbach, Macclesfield and Crewe railway stations are also nearby, running trains to all major UK cities.

Prices for The Marbury two-bedroom houses at Hazelmere start from £54,000 for a 25% share (FMV: £216,000). Visit laurushomes.co.uk for more information and availability.
