A government scheme has helped 105 buyers at a new housing development in Rhyl.

The Help to Buy Wales initiative has supported these buyers at Anwyl Homes' Parc Aberkinsey development, which consists of 474 homes in total.

More than a fifth of these homes were bought with the help of the scheme.

There is just one home left for sale at the site.

The final three-bedroom semi-detached Bretton is priced at £229,995, which is within the £300,000 price cap for Help to Buy Wales.

The scheme allows first-time buyers and existing homeowners to take out an equity loan for up to 20 per cent of the purchase price, interest-free for five years.

They then need a five per cent deposit plus a mortgage from their lender of choice to cover the remaining 75 per cent.

Graeme Gibb, sales director for Anwyl Homes Cheshire and North Wales, said: "Help to Buy Wales is designed to assist those who wouldn’t be able to purchase a property otherwise.

"It’s a good option for first-time buyers but can also provide a solution for other people including those who’ve owned a property previously and want a route back to homeownership, perhaps after a change of circumstances."

The Parc Aberkinsey development has been popular since its launch several years ago.

Sandra Hughes, senior manager at Rhyl’s Peter Large estate agents, said: "The demand for new build homes in the area is always buoyant and that’s obvious to see given how quickly the Parc Aberkinsey development has grown in such a short time.

"It’s popular with families who need to upsize and choose to stay in Rhyl for its schooling, close proximity to road links and for work and recreational facilities."

Ms Hughes added: "Parc Aberkinsey stands on the edge of east Rhyl, only one mile from the seafront and adjoins open country.

"Many of the properties enjoy views towards the Clwydian hills and the town centre is easily accessed as is the A55, which makes for easy commuting to all of the North Wales coastal towns, Chester and the motorway network beyond.

"Senior and junior schools are all within walking distance.

"The development offers the latest styles and trends and is an excellent example of new build properties with open space and ideally designed for families with a safe and secure environment."
