An illustration, not advice: stamp duty at the rates in force today (GOV.UK), the monthly payment at the Bank of England's average quoted rate for 2-year fixes at 90% LTV, October 2026, the latest it has published.
With a 10% deposit (£39,500) you would borrow £355,500, a 90% loan to value. 11 lenders publish 30 two-year fixed deals at that loan to value. Here are 5 of the 30, sorted by monthly payment.

LeisureIf you like staying active there’s a Leisure World sports centre in Tiptree, or for something a bit gentler you could visit Braxted Park, Messing Park, or the Abberton Reservoir Nature Discovery Park - it’s one of Europe’s top wetland sites. Heading to the coast, the Blackwater Estuary National Nature Reserve is another peaceful place to explore. Children will love Colchester Zoo just 6 miles away, and if you live in Tiptree, the Tiptree Jam Factory is a must-visit.
Education
For young children, the abc Nursery, and Baynards, Milldene and Saint Luke’s primary schools are all within a mile of Scarlett Mews. For teenagers, Thurstable School Sports College & Sixth Form heads up secondary education in Tiptree and is within walking distance of Scarlett Mews. There are two secondary schools in Witham, 7 miles away: New Rickstones Academy and Maltings Academy. The Colchester Institute offers further education and apprenticeships for 16+ school leavers.
Shopping
For your local shopping trips, Tiptree’s High Street offers a great range of independent shops. There’s a Tesco Superstore just over a mile away, and an Asda and Iceland on hand too. There’s even a garden centre within walking distance, where you can enjoy choosing plants for your new garden. If you want to make a day of it, Colchester and Chelmsford are home to all the national High Street brands.
Transport
Two convenient local routes pass through the village, the B1022 and the B1023. The B1023 runs close to Scarlett Mews and a 10-minute drive takes you to Kelvedon for the A12 or the train station. The A12 joins the M25 at Brentwood, via Chelmsford, and in the other direction, it’s the direct route to Ipswich via Colchester. Regular train services from Kelvedon are popular with commuters. The station is on the main Norwich to London Liverpool Street line.

Sorted by the figure you choose, and nothing else: not a recommendation. Each payment is a repayment mortgage over 30 years at the rate the lender publishes for this loan to value; after the deal, at the lender's variable rate today, which can change. The cost over the deal is its payments and the lender's stated fees, less any cashback, and the APRC is worked out the way the FCA sets for lenders. NewHomeSearch is not authorised by the FCA, does not give mortgage advice or arrange mortgages, and receives nothing from lenders. A mortgage is secured on your home. Lenders decide who they lend to and may lend less on some new homes, flats in particular: check every figure with the lender.
