GET YOUR FOOT ON THE PROPERTY LADDER
At Telereal Trillium, we strive to make first homes accessible to everyone. The majority of properties at Irene Studios are associated with the Help to Buy scheme, a Government backed equity loan aimed at helping you purchase your new home.
The scheme is open to both first time buyers and existing homeowners on new build properties up to a maximum value of £600,000. To use the scheme, you will need at least a 5% deposit.
You may then be eligible to receive an interest free equity loan from the government of 40% of the value of your new home, which means that you only need to secure a 55% mortgage.

Choosing a floor plan might be tricky, but it shouldn't be so. See 3 quick tips below to pick only the right layout for your new home.
Tip 1 — Measure it all
You might already know your desired square footage when choosing a new home. Generally, more bedrooms mean more space, which also drives up the prices.
However, modern developers offer smart floor plans so you can make better use of the space. For instance, a studio with an open floor plan can be much more efficient and affordable than a typical 1-bedroom apartment with a traditional floor plan.
Tip 2 – Go with the flow
Once you have picked one or several layouts, you need to imagine living in the space. Visualise daily activities like laundry or cooking: is it convenient? Do you have enough space?
Online interior design apps that offer 3D visualisation (many of them are free) are time-savers here. Just download the desired floor plan from 1newhomes, upload it to the website you chose, and get a 3D render to visualise living in your new home.
Tip 3 — Do not neglect flexible space
The current lifestyle dictates its own rules. That’s why you need to consider flexible space in your perfect floor plan to have room for a home office or a gym. In addition, be sure to check that your new flat has a lot of natural light. The importance of the latter goes without saying.
A good floor plan means having all you need in a smartly designed space. We are sure our quick tips help you pick only the perfect layout for your new home.
