May 13, 2016 Property News 0

With a fantastic location, high quality design and excellent specification, CALA Homes’ Clarendon Court development in Winchester is ticking all the boxes with local buyers.  So much so that there is now just one apartment remaining at this popular development.

Set in leafy surroundings on a prime residential road to the north of Winchester, Clarendon Court is an exclusive collection of eight characterful apartments and two four and five bedroom homes. Just one, two-bedroom apartment now remains within the beautifully refurbished Edwardian Park House. Plot 5 is a stunning ground floor apartment boasting an impressive kitchen/sitting room with French doors opening onto a private patio, master bedroom with en suite and fitted wardrobes, as well as a second bedroom and larger separate bathroom.

Steve Brine, MP for Winchester & Chandlers Ford recently visited Clarendon Court and was given a tour of the development by CALA’s regional managing director John Kennedy.  Steve commented: “This is a stunning development, with homes built to a very high standard.  Much of the original house, which was very well known in the area, has been retained and thoughtfully refurbished which is wonderful and a great example of how new homes can be built in keeping with the local architecture. It’s easy to see why this development has been so popular with buyers.”

Nicki Dennis, sales and marketing director for CALA Homes (South Home Counties), said: “Winchester was recently named as the best place to live in Britain by the Sunday Times so it’s no surprise that there has been such high demand for the homes at Clarendon Court. This small development offers high quality homes, close to a wide variety of local amenities and with excellent transport links for commuters. With just one apartment now available I’d urge anyone interested to come and talk to us soon to avoid missing out on their dream new home.”

Steeped in architectural heritage, Winchester boasts an abundance of shops, cafes and restaurants, with a good range of specialist shops and boutiques, as well as well-known high street brands.  There are ample leisure and sports clubs in the area, as well as the South Downs National Park and coast close by.

For commuters, Winchester train station lies less than a mile from the development and offers services into Southampton Parkway in eight minutes and London Waterloo in just under an hour. Winchester city centre is only two miles away and the M3 is just three miles away, providing swift access to Southampton and London.

A fabulous reception hall will impress all who visit with the wonderful tiled flooring extending through to the expansive kitchen which is the heartbeat of the house. This room has everything to offer a family for day to day living with beautifully fitted cabinetry and appliances for meal preparation and space to enjoy informal family meals as well as extravagant entertaining; still leaving areas to relax on sofas.
