A new selection of purpose-built apartments has been released, offering a superb opportunity for first time buyers or investors in Dunstable.

Phoenix Park, on Church Street, includes a range of one and two bedroom apartments designed by Persimmon Homes to suit young professionals or those seeking to expand their property portfolio.

Claire Dearsley, head of sales for Persimmon Homes Midlands, said: “No matter what shape the economy is in, people will always be drawn towards bricks and mortar – whether that is getting the keys to their own home, or investing for the future.”

“We have seen a healthy interest in the newly-released apartments at Phoenix Park, with both first time buyers and buy-to-let landlords looking to reserve plots.”

The development includes a selection of apartments priced from £219,950 – all offering open-plan lounge/kitchen/diners and some also boasting balconies and en suites.

Also available at Phoenix Park are three and four bedroom family homes, for those looking for more space.

The location is ideal for anyone commuting into London or Luton, and is close to outstanding local schools, shops and leisure facilities.

Claire added: “For first time buyers there has never been a better time to purchase, as they can access the Government-backed Help to Buy: Equity Loan scheme, meaning they only need a five per cent deposit to secure their ideal home.”
