A couple who wanted to move on from shared to full ownership have found the answer in a Glastonbury development. When Joanna Boughen-Hunt and her husband Tim began looking for their new home, they found Taylor Wimpey’s Dunstan Park development, in Glastonbury, ticked all the boxes.
Joanna said: “We were living nearby in shared ownership property. Shared ownership was a great way for us to get on the property ladder a few years ago, but we decided we wanted to move up the ladder. We were looking for a new build property in a townhouse style and we wanted 100 per cent ownership on our house.”

With that in mind they visited Dunstan Park and purchased a three-bedroomed Scotney property.
Joanna said: “We chose the house because of its size and the design features. It is an impressive design with large bedrooms, and a garden off the living room which is good for our two children – Madison who is four and two-year-old Riley.
“The area is perfect for us too. The schools are good and it’s local for both our places of work.”
Joanna said: “We spent time away tending to a sick relative during the process and the Taylor Wimpey team helped tremendously with chasing solicitors and moving the whole thing along.”
The development has homes ranging from starter two-bedroomed homes through to spacious four-bedroom properties. Prices start at £148,995, requiring a deposit of just £6,899 using the Government-backed NewBuy scheme.
