New-build 50% shared ownership apartment — low deposit, central Chippenham location.
New-build 2-bed apartment, 545 sq ft, contemporary open-plan layout
A bright two-bedroom new-build apartment offering compact, modern living in central Chippenham. The open-plan living space, balcony and contemporary finishes suit first-time buyers seeking low-entry ownership through Shared Ownership (50% share). At 545 sq ft the layout is efficient but best for those who prioritise location and affordability over generous room sizes.
The scheme lets you buy a 50% share (example share price c. £115k–£117.5k) with a small deposit and a subsidised rent on the unsold share (estimated £263–£269 pcm). There will be additional legal costs for a shared ownership purchase and an estimated estate/maintenance charge is to be confirmed — factor these running costs into your budget alongside mortgage and rent.
Practical considerations: mobile signal is excellent but broadband speeds are reported very slow, which may affect remote working. The property is in a very affluent area with low flood risk and a cluster of good-rated local schools within reach, making it suitable for buyers planning a long-term stay or later resale. A launch event for early reservations is planned for 4th October 2025.
This flat is a sensible route onto the housing ladder if you accept a smaller footprint, shared ownership commitments and pending service charges. For buyers wanting a new, low-maintenance finish and a central Chippenham address, it’s worth a viewing; for those needing high-speed broadband or larger rooms, this may not fit.
