Location, location... and style! Austen House apartments in the heart of Winchester proving popular!

In terms of property, the old adage of ‘location, location…’ is proving to be accurate in the case of Beechcroft’s Austen House located in North Walls, within Winchester’s Conservation Area.  Five of the apartments have already been snapped up - and the recent open day attracted over 70 potential homebuyers.

“We’re taking the response to Austen House as a sign that, in Winchester, optimism is returning to the property market,” comments Angela South, Sales and Marketing Director for Beechcroft.  “We’ve already sold four of the apartments and there’s plenty of interest in the others - several potential purchasers are currently in the process of having their own homes valued with a view to downsizing to this superb city location.  We’re extremely pleased with the reaction to Austen House and the comments on our design and specification.”

Austen House is already attracting a wide range of purchasers from first time buyers to downsizers.   This is understandable given the size, the style and the specification.   These apartments which are the result of Beechcroft’s careful conversion of the former Winchester library, provide plenty of space.  The majority are duplex or mezzanine apartments and many also offer outside space - either a walled garden, patio or terrace.  Whilst each apartment is unique, it’s certainly worth taking a look at the show home to appreciate the design, finish and specification. 

For further information on the apartments currently available at Austen House, priced from £375,000, please contact Beechcroft on 01962-849415 or visit the website at www.beechcroft.co.uk.
