Shared ownership (Advertised price represents 40% share. Full market value £370,000). A recently-constructed, semi-detached house which has an attractive kitchen/dining room at the front, a central cloakroom and a spacious rear reception room. Patio doors open onto a south/south-west-facing garden. On the first floor is a main bedroom with en-suite shower room plus a generously-sized second bedroom and a naturally-lit bathroom. A large storage/utility cupboard has been provided in the entrance hallway and the energy-efficiency rating is very good, thanks to well insulated walls, roof and floor, high performance glazing and a modern gas central heating system. The property comes with an off-street parking space, easily accessible via the garden gate. Kings Hill is a 'new' village approximately six miles to the west of Maidstone. Work began in 1989 to turn an area that had previously been both royal hunting ground and RAF airfield into a desirable place to live. There is a supermarket and a selection of other shops/amenities close by and a choice of three primary schools, all Ofsted rated either 'Good' or 'Outstanding'.

What is shared ownership ?
Shared Ownership is a housing scheme designed to help homebuyers who are unable to afford the cost of buying a property outright on the open market. Properties may be sold off-plan or new build direct from housing associations, or pre-owned from existing shared owners. The rules and terms of the scheme are set by the Greater London Authority (gla) in London and Homes England outside of London.

1. Not own another property in the UK or any other country.
2. Have a household income that falls below £90,000 (£80,000 threshold outside the M25). Every property will have a minimum income level too, determined by its’ value, rent and service charge costs. In most cases you will need to meet or exceed the given minimum income.
3. Have access to a minimum deposit of 10% of the share being purchased (a minimum deposit of 5% of the share being purchased may be acceptable depending on individual financial status).
4. Be in full time permanent employment.
