All 25 shared ownership homes on offer at A2Dominion’s Charlton Village, near Shepperton were sold within three hours of its launch day.

Demand was high on the day with over 70 people attending and with prices starting at just £66,000 for a 40 per cent share on a part buy part rent basis it was deemed a great success!

A2Dominion has been working in partnership with Spelthorne Borough Council on the scheme, along with contractor Inspace Partnerships and architect Stanford Eatwell.

Denise Stewart, A2Dominion’s Director of Sales & Marketing (South), said: “Now is a good time for first-time buyers to be investing in a home due to economic signs showing growth. Research indicates that house prices are increasing while the Bank of England has reported that October was the eleventh month in a row that the number of mortgage approvals rose. It is unusual to sell out an entire development in just three hours, but this clearly shows just how strong the demand is for high quality affordable homes. Charlton Village is in a fantastic location close to Shepperton, yet still within easy travelling distance to London so it’s no surprise they proved such a hit with house-hunters.”
