Leading housebuilder Taylor Wimpey has responded to huge interest in its exclusive Abbotswood development in Romsey, Hampshire, by announcing the release of a fresh collection of stunning new homes.

Savvy property-seekers have been quick to take their pick from the beautiful new homes available in this sought-after location, and to meet the continuing demand, Taylor Wimpey has unveiled a brand new phase of properties, including a selection of four-bedroom townhouses which are ideally suited to busy family lifestyles.

The official opening of the new phase will take place on Saturday 14th September, when there will be a garden party event held at the development with fun for all the family!

Visitors to the launch event will also be able to find out more about the Government’s Help to Buy shared equity scheme, which enables first-time buyers and those with a property to sell to purchase their new home for 80% of its full price, including a deposit as low as 5%.

Fiona Creed, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “Abbotswood continues to prove incredibly popular with discerning buyers, and so we’re delighted to be opening up even more fantastic opportunities for people to own a brand new home within this exciting development.

“Anyone interested in staking their claim at Abbotswood should contact us without delay to ensure they’re among the first to take their pick from the great home designs in this brand new collection.”

Among the newly-released selection of properties are the four-bedroom ‘Easton’ and ‘Danbury’ townhouses, which are priced from £315,000 and £350,000 respectively, and feature a wealth of generous accommodation across three floors, including an en-suite master bedroom, plus a garage and two parking spaces outside. The two-bedroom ‘Lockerley’ coach house-style apartment is also available in the new phase, priced at just £185,000.

Alternatively, a handful of five-bedroom houses remains available for sale in the nearly sold-out first phase at Abbotswood, priced from £495,000.

Help to Buy involves a Government loan of up to 20% and is available on new-build properties up to the value of £600,000. There’s no salary cap for purchasers using the scheme. Alternatively, the NewBuy initiative enables credit-worthy buyers in a range of circumstances to access new homes priced up to £500,000 with a 95% mortgage.

A delightful place to call home, Romsey offers all the amenities needed for everyday life whilst retaining a distinct sense of history. The awe-inspiring Norman Abbey dominates the town and is surrounded by charming medieval streets, while the town centre boasts a Waitrose supermarket, a department store, and over 100 other retail outlets, including high street stores and independent shops.

Families will appreciate there’s a choice of schools within easy reach, including Cupernham Infant School, Cupernham Junior School and The Mountbatten School for secondary age pupils, which were all rated ‘good’ in their most recent Ofsted inspections, while the development is also conveniently located for Southampton University.

Romsey railway station provides direct services to Southampton, Brighton, Bristol and Cardiff while the town is within 10 miles of both the M27 and M3, providing fast links along the south coast and to London. Southampton Airport, with around 50 destinations to choose from, is just 11 miles away.

To find out more about the new phase of homes at Abbotswood, property-seekers should attend the family garden party launch event at the development on Saturday 14th September between 10am and 5pm.
