Low-deposit route to Chippenham living near the station and schools.
New-build three-bedroom townhouse, approx. 641 sq ft
A newly built three-bedroom townhouse offered via Shared Ownership, ideal for first-time buyers wanting a low-entry route onto the housing ladder. The Francis provides practical living across well-planned rooms, a rear garden and two allocated parking spaces. Its location puts Chippenham station a three-minute walk away for quick commutes to Bath and Bristol.
The home is compact at about 641 sq ft but arranged for family practicality: ground-floor living room, kitchen/diner with French doors to the garden, WC and storage; three bedrooms and a family bathroom upstairs. Modern fittings include double glazing, solar panels and energy-efficient construction, helping reduce running costs.
Buyers should note this is a Shared Ownership sale. Example pricing shows a 25% share at £86,250 with a 5% deposit of £4,312.50 and rent on the retained share of £592.97 pcm; shares can be between 10–75%. Additional legal fees are likely for shared ownership conveyancing and estate charges are still to be confirmed.
Practical drawbacks to consider: the overall internal space is small for a three-bed, broadband speeds in the area are very slow, and long-term costs depend on rent increases and service charges. For buyers prioritising a low deposit, good transport links and new-build efficiency, this is a realistic route into homeownership; those needing more internal space or fast broadband should factor refurbishment or alternative connectivity solutions into their plans.
