L&Q shortlisted for three First Time Buyer Readers' Awards

Helping buyers take their first step onto the property ladder has always been a key focus for L&Q – it’s what saw us take home the award for Best Affordable Housing Provider at the 2023 First Time Buyer Readers’ Awards!

We’re a developer with a social purpose – we not only build homes for all stages of life, but help to grow thriving communities, too.

This year, we’ve been shortlisted in three categories at the very prestigious and competitive industry awards, highlighting the fantastic homes and incentives available to first-time buyers both in and outside of London, as well as in the North West.

Hundreds of entries have been whittled down by an esteemed panel of expert judges, and the final vote is now open to the public. You can read more about L&Q’s shortlisted entries below, and follow the link at the end to cast your vote in all categories…

Best First Time Buyer Family Home

Designed with families in mind, Beauchamp Park is a new neighbourhood on the outskirts of Warwick offering plenty of public open space, children’s play areas and pockets of woodland, as well as views towards the historic Warwick Castle. The perfect family home, The Penrith is available to buy through Shared Ownership and doesn’t compromise on quality or space; a large four-bedroom detached house, complete with a garage and a driveway, the impressive home offers the breathing space, legroom and privacy every family needs in a picturesque and convenient location.

Best New Development in the North

A joint venture project with Lovell Homes, Whalley Manor is located in the Ribble Valley, Lancashire; a green and unspoilt part of the North West, filled with historic villages and traditional architecture. Walking distance from the village of Whalley, which offers the perfect blend of community, amenity, connectivity and countryside, Whalley Manor sees generously sized two-to-five-bedroom homes set around 10 acres of public open space, boasting views across the rolling hillside and beyond.

Best Marketing Campaign

A campaign about people, for people, A November to Remember was a hit with first-time buyers. During a month of increasing energy bills and rising inflation, we created a campaign that offered incentives across a wide range of developments and helped more first-time buyers on to the ladder than all of our previous campaigns!
