The Lanes

Fionnuala Carr bought her first home at 31, beating the rising London first‑time buyer age to secure a two‑bedroom apartment at Springfield Place, Barratt London’s first collection of new homes within Springfield Village.

After years of house‑sharing, she committed to saving steadily for seven years and cutting back on holidays to build her deposit.

Springfield Place offered the lifestyle she wanted, with great transport links, parks and modern amenities, plus a spacious layout with two bathrooms and a private balcony.

“The process of buying my first home was quick and simple,” Fionnuala explains. “Speaking to an independent financial adviser and Barratt London’s sales team made it a whole lot easier.” 

Now settled into her new home, Fionnuala enjoys greater independence, access to green space and a calmer pace of living, showing how consistent saving and the right support can help younger buyers get onto the ladder.
