Kings Square Show Home No.2 Launched After Buyer Snaps Up No.1
20 May 2013

A brand new show home has been decorated and launched at award-winning housebuilder Linden Homes’ superb Kings Square development in Walton-on-Thames, Surrey, after the first one was swiftly snapped up.

It’s proof that quality properties don’t stay on the market long when they boast short walks to the riverside, good schools, green parks and regular direct trains just 30 minutes from London Waterloo that are perfect for commuters.

The exclusive collection is a mix of 17 two-storey three and four-bedroom semi-detached houses only 10 minutes’ walk from the town’s station with at least four services an hour into the capital.

The new three-bedroom show home is a stunningly presented example of the bespoke Georgian range. The contemporary interior features a spacious open plan kitchen and dining room with double French windows inviting visitors out onto the turfed garden.

A separate living room at the front is set to overlook a pretty landscaped area providing an impressive centrepiece to Kings Square. Two of the show home’s three bathrooms are upstairs, where one is an en suite to the large master bedroom with built-in wardrobes.

Househunters have included many from central London looking to the enviable lifestyle on offer at Walton-on-Thames, away from the noise and the crowds but nevertheless enjoying a variety of modern shops, cafes, restaurants and a cinema.

Linden Homes Guildford managing director Peter Youll said: “If our second show home proves as attractive as the first it won’t be long before we have to get the decorators in again to prepare a third!

“Kings Square has that magical combination of quality homes and attractive location. Living in a vibrant, riverside town enjoying such easy access to London is something that many find hard to resist.”

The new show house has two dedicated parking spaces. The heart of the home, the kitchen, includes AEG single integrated eye-level electric oven, Bosch electric induction hob with granite splashback and stainless steel hood, plus integrated fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washer/dryer.

The bathrooms boast Roca white sanitaryware, Saloni wall tiling, Novalon vinyl flooring and white, heated towel rails. For a truly personalised style ready for moving day, Linden Homes’ Enhance service also offers a unique design consultancy on fixtures, fittings and upgrades.

Meanwhile, new-build peace of mind comes from a 10-year NHBC build warranty and two-year customer care warranty as standard, while the latest technology and appliances help to deliver lower energy bills.

Kings Square nestles in an established and desirable cul de sac close to a picturesque stretch of the River Thames, lined by an enticing mix of pubs, riverside parks, sports clubs, boat trips and more. Within walking distance of the town centre, the homes enjoy easy access to a good choice of schools, three golf courses and a leisure centre and private gym.

The fun and glamour of Sandown Racecourse is nearby, as is the splendour of Hampton Court Palace, and the M25 is reached by a short drive. By road, central London is only 19 miles away and lively Kingston Upon Thames only seven.

To people struggling to build up funds for a deposit, however, Help to Buy can give extra support – even to those with a deposit as small as five per cent.

It works by the government providing an equity loan of up to 20 per cent of the value of any new-build home worth up to a maximum of £600,000. This can be repaid at any time or when the home is sold. And an added bonus is that there is no interest payable on the loan for five years.

With the equity loan added to their deposit, buyers are in the much better position of only needing to agree a 75 per cent mortgage from a bank or building society to secure their dream home.
