DEVELOPERS and housebuilders are becoming more and more competitive as they vie for potential buyer’s attention. And the winners in this ever increasing competition are the house hunters.

Award-winning developer FM Homes are giving buyers a good deal at their Kilmarnock Road development – the Point.

Those looking to purchase one of the two-bedroom apartments at this Glasgow development will not only have their mortgage paid for 12 months, but will also benefit from a lump sum of £500 to go towards their legal fees and receive a free property valuation.

Tom Buchanan, Managing Director, FM Homes said: “Buying property is challenging and is often more difficult for first time buyers. We want to help home buyers striving to get onto the property ladder. Our offer at the Point allows buyers to acquire a superb apartment in a central location whilst reducing financial concerns. The legal fee contribution and free valuation makes the initial buying period more manageable, while the 12 month mortgage deal allows buyers that much desired financial breathing space.”

Apartments at the Point are set within two attractive buildings and include FM’s signature stylish interior features and open-plan living areas. Each apartment is beautifully finished with high quality designer kitchens and integrated appliances, including washer/dryer, dishwasher, oven, hob and hood.

As well as a main bathroom, each apartment also boasts an en-suite in the master bedroom. A neutral colour scheme has been used to ensure a bright, fresh look and an airy feel.

The main living area exudes sophistication with a wide range of stylish furniture and accessories. A brown suede sofa coupled with a chic glass coffee table and leather accessories creates a fashionably minimalist but homely feel. Bold splashes of bright orange accessories contrast well with the neutral furnishings, adding a zesty edge to the overall look of the room. Furnishings are both practical and functional with clean simple lines, yet a sense of opulence is conveyed through the dark and cream leathers and polished chrome fittings.

A cream leather bed and light wood furnishings in the master bedroom gives the room a luxurious feel. The look is finished with a beige, checked duvet cover.

The second bedroom again has contrasting dark brown hues against a fairly neutral background but has a distinctly sexy, feminine feel with a fun, feathered bedspread.

Set within one of Glasgow’s most sought after areas, the development comprises 64 homes in a mix of two bedroom apartments and three bedroom duplexes. Two bedroom apartments are priced from £170,000.

The show flat and marketing suite is open five days a week from 10am until 5pm, Thursday to Monday. For further information please call the sales centre on 0141 649 6350.
