Downsize without compromise at Abbotswood

Hampshire is home to many large country houses, but when children have moved out and those homes are just a bit too big and there’s too much land to manage, the thought of downsizing seems appealing, yet daunting. That’s why those who don’t want to compromise on a smaller home are turning to Abbotswood.

Abbotswood, Taylor Wimpey’s beautiful Romsey development has large homes so that all the family can be accommodated when they visit. There’s room for all the memories accumulated over the years and even dedicated hobby spaces. The homes on offer aren’t the typical two bedroom apartments associated with downsizing, but many who want a newly built efficient home with more manageable gardens are choosing the development for their later years.

Fiona Creed, regional sales and marketing director for Taylor Wimpey Southern Counties, comments: “Our buyers tell us that Abbotswood is the ideal place to make their step in downsizing. When you own a secluded country house and you’re looking to downsize, much smaller options can seem too much of a jump, whereas an Abbotswood home offers middle ground.

“Retirement is supposed to be enjoyed, so a more efficient home that requires less upkeep is certainly appealing. Outdoor lovers and keen gardeners needn’t settle for a small balcony either, you can have a beautiful, yet practical garden and our homes are located on the edge of beautiful countryside for leisurely strolls. This beautiful development already has a strong community spirit which is ideal for homeowners looking for a place to live with friendly neighbours.”

Abbotswood currently has a stunning collection of four and five bedroom properties with prices starting for four bedroom homes from £315,000 to £530,000. Incentives such as part exchange, Help to Buy and other special offers are available, so interested parties are advised to speak to a sales executive to find out more about how Taylor Wimpey can assist you with your move.

The development is ideally located in historic Romsey, close to Southampton and Winchester, and lies on the River Test which is famous for fly fishing. There is a good selection of high street shops, restaurants and gastro pubs in the area, as well as beautiful parkland to explore.
