BUYERS have snapped up half the homes of a new Timperley housing development.

Three of the six properties for sale at Altin Homes’ new Sylvan Point development, on Sylvan Avenue, have been bought by homeowners.

The sales boost came after the opening of the show home which provided house hunters with the opportunity to see what was on offer.

Billed as ‘mini-mansions’, the contemporary homes share many of the same features, styling details and specification as the firm puts into its high-end properties.

Managing director of Altin Homes, Mohammad Khoy said: "The house buying public obviously agree with half of the development sold within a couple of weeks of the properties being released for sale.

“We have received some very positive feedback which is hugely rewarding for the team, especially as everyone has put so much care and attention into making these home so special.”
