Sturt Farm (Rent to Buy), Haslemere, Surrey GU27 3FF

Stonewater proudly presents a selection of two bedroom apartments available on a rent-to-buy basis at its Sturt Farm development in Haslemere. Each of the spacious two bedroom homes is located within a striking, barn-style three-storey building with part weatherboarding, reflecting the site’s former use as a farm.

Each apartment comes with allocated, off-road parking for two vehicles; the ground and first floor apartments benefit from their own private outside space in the shape of a balcony off the kitchen/living/dining room. Two of the second floor apartments feature a spectacular glazed wall to the kitchen/dining/living room and to bedroom one.

Rent-to-buy is a scheme which allows you to rent a home at 80% of the market rent, providing you with the opportunity to save towards a deposit to then go on and buy your home.

Our homes are let on Assured Shorthold tenancies for five years giving you plenty of time to build up a deposit, after which Stonewater will provide you with an opportunity to buy 100% of the home you know and love. The idea is simple – rent now to buy later.
