Tucked away in sought-after Chilworth, Banner Homes’ impressive Chilworth Heights development has been going down a treat with house hunters in the area. In fact, since the development was launched, already 50% of the exclusive apartments have now been reserved, showing that despite the current climate demand for good quality homes in exceptional locations is still strong.

Chilworth Heights is a gated development comprising eight stunning three bedroom apartments, 4 of which are duplex, set within just under three acres of picturesque woodland. Nicki Dennis, Sales and Marketing Director for Banner Homes Wessex comments: “We are thrilled with the response that Chilworth Heights has received from individuals in the area, especially in light of the market conditions we are currently experiencing. It seems that the appetite for purchasing quality homes in exceptional locations still remains.”

She continues: “Indeed, there is always an inherent need to move home, with reasons ranging from job relocation, downsizing to those looking for a place to ‘lock up and leave’ as buyers’ opt to spend more time abroad. People still need a place to live and over the mid to long term opportunities for financial gain will be good when investing in bricks and mortar. What’s more, Chilworth Heights provides the perfect opportunity to purchase a luxury property in a tranquil location; these apartments are far from ordinary.” Each home at Chilworth Heights comprises three well planned bedrooms, two of which come complete with fitted wardrobes or dressing rooms, making wardrobe worry for clothes and shoes a thing of the past! The master bedroom also comes complete with a stylish white en-suite. The homes offer plenty of storage space and each comes complete with a functional and spacious separate utility room making household chores a doddle. Contemporary styled lounges and kitchen/breakfast rooms complete with stainless steel integrated appliances and granite worktops, lead onto either a beautiful garden terrace in the apartments or a balcony with countryside views in the duplexes. For those who love the tranquillity of open air, Chilworth Heights boasts an elegant Italian stone inner courtyard. The grounds of the development are professionally landscaped and are encompassed by a breathtaking woodland glade providing peaceful walks without having to venture too far from home. Separate garages are also included within the grounds of the development, providing secure allocated parking for each home.

Another major draw to the development is Banner Homes’ Part Exchange scheme that helps purchasers eliminate the stress and uncertainty when moving home. Nicki comments: ”In these uncertain times many house builders have been forced to remove this scheme from their selection. However, at Banner Homes we are delighted to still have Part Exchange available which hopefully goes some way to alleviating pressures associated with moving home.”

The Part Exchange scheme allows buyers to move easily into a new Banner home without the delays and uncertainties that can be experienced when selling an existing property. It also allows purchasers to secure the home they wish to purchase in advance of the build completion date, without having to worry about tying together legal completion dates that are several months in the future. Under the scheme, completion dates for the two properties will always be identical eliminating the need for temporary accommodation or bridging facilities.

The village of Chilworth offers an array of amenities to suit residents’ everyday needs. The Chilworth Arms, a charming country pub is within walking distance from Chilworth Heights as is a local convenience store. For those who like to stay fit, the renowned Chilworth Manor has recently opened a £3million health and leisure club and the Southampton Municipal Golf Club is just a relaxing stroll through the woodland surrounding the development.

Prices at Chilworth Heights start from £435,000. The marketing suite and show apartment are open Thursday to Monday from 10am to 5pm.
