Shared Ownership homes in Leicestershire
Homes in
Leicestershire
Interested in a Shared Ownership home in Leicestershire? We have a range of Shared Ownership homes available across the county. Located in the centre of the East Midlands, this charming historic county offers a rich mix of city living, bustling towns and open countryside.
Leicestershire is a great place to consider a Shared Ownership home. The county is generally more affordable with typical house prices sitting well below the levels seen in the South East.
Shared Ownership, together with lower house prices can often mean a smaller deposit and more manageable monthly costs when buying an initial share, with the option to increase ownership over time through staircasing.Â
Leicestershire offers something for everyone, combining family-friendly attractions, green open space and a lively social scene in one well-rounded county. From days out at the National Space Centre, Twycross Zoo and Bradgate Park, to theatre nights at Curve, wine tasting at Rothley Wines or restaurants, bars and entertainment in Leicester city centre, it’s a place that suits young families, professionals and couples looking for an active, enjoyable lifestyle close to home.

Wigston Meadows
Eligibility and affordability reassurance
Shared Ownership is designed to make buying a home more achievable. Buyers usually purchase an initial share between 10% and 75% of a property’s value and pay rent on the remaining share, often requiring a lower deposit than buying outright.
The scheme is available to first‑time buyers and others who do not currently own a home, subject to eligibility and affordability checks. With staircasing you have the option to increase your shares over time if your circumstances change and you can afford to do so. Plus if your lease allows, you could staircase to 100% ownership and own your home outright.
