According to recent research, house prices have grown a significant 80% in Cambridge since 2007, making buying a property more of a challenge for many in this area[1]. Located just eight miles from the city centre, and just four miles from Cambridge Science Park, Waterbeach offers a range of new homes, and is a more affordable alternative to the city centre. For buyers looking to purchase a home in the popular city of Cambridge who may be struggling with affordability, sustainable homebuilder Stonebond is offering the Discount Market Sale scheme (DMS) at Waterbeach. Available to eligible buyers, the selected homes include a 20% discount from the local market value[2]*.
The affordable home ownership scheme helps prospective buyers by offering a remarkable 20% discount off the local market value, which is confirmed by an RICS-certified surveyor. The buyer owns 100% of the property on purchase, but the home remains discounted throughout its lifetime, meaning that when the property is sold, the homeowner also sells at 20% of the current market value.
With DMS, a variety of different buyers will be offered an invaluable opportunity to own a home at Stonebond at Waterbeach. Surrounded by green open space, woodlands and with a 23-acre lake to explore, Waterbeach is an exclusive new collection of homes will connect people with nature amongst a lively new community. Waterbeach is also set to include a health centre, shops and eateries, as well as a new primary school opening in Autumn 2026.
What’s more, living at Waterbeach will appeal to those working locally to the area, and those who wish to have a great work/life balance. With a sustainable transport hub offering a shuttle to and from Waterbeach station, the development is exceptionally well-located. The Cambridge Research Park is only a two-minute drive away, and the Science Park can be accessed by a new cycle route. Along with its close connections, Waterbeach is a great place to work from home with convenient amenities nearby and access to watersports on site, for those looking for a fun and exciting way to spend a day off.
Buying a new property at Waterbeach can not only offer an exceptional, high-quality new home to DMS applicants, but an enriching and exciting lifestyle. A combination of six apartments comprising two and three bedrooms at Waterbeach are available to purchase through the scheme, located in the luxurious Hawker House. Prices start at £296,000 for a second floor, two bedroom apartment with a market value of £370,000, therefore providing an incredible saving of £74,000. It’s easy to apply for the scheme with Stonebond, and customers can visit the marketing suite at Waterbeach to find out more.
Annette Cole, Sales & Marketing Director at Stonebond, comments: “With mortgage rates starting to reduce, and some lenders providing more favourable terms for first time buyers, now is a great time to get on the property ladder, and turn the dream of owning a home into reality through the Discount Market Sale scheme. Offering buyers the chance to own 100% of their home at a discounted rate will have a positive impact in today’s more unpredictable market.
“This is a fantastic opportunity to secure a stunning, modern and energy efficient home and become a vibrant part of the thriving new Waterbeach community.”
