Get help to secure a perfect family home at Strawberry Fields

Strawberry Fields

Families looking to secure their place at Taylor Wimpey’s sought-after Strawberry Fields development in Southampton are being given even more reasons to ‘pick their own’ perfect property!

Stylish three and four-bedroom houses are currently available to buy at Strawberry Fields from just £268,000 – and would-be buyers in Hampshire can now combine Part Exchange and NewBuy schemes to make choosing their ideal plot even easier and more affordable.

Under Part Exchange, customers receive an agreed price for their old home, based on the average of independent valuations, while the NewBuy scheme means they can purchase their new home at the development with a 95% mortgage.

Fiona Creed, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “By acting now, home-hunters can be among the first to ‘pick their own’ plot from this wonderful collection at a former strawberry nursery – and make sure someone else doesn’t beat them to it.

“With Part Exchange and NewBuy now available to combine, it’s a perfect opportunity for purchasers to snap up the home of their dreams and join the growing community at Strawberry Fields.”

The new homes at Strawberry Fields combine generous living space with high-quality design and offer superb value for money, with a choice of properties to suit a range of purchasers, including families, young professionals, investors and first-time buyers.

The stylish four-bedroom ‘Shelford’ detached property, for example, is priced from £395,000 and boasts a contemporary fitted kitchen/dining room and a generous living room, both opening through French doors to the private rear garden, while a study and a handy guest cloakroom complete the ground-floor layout.

Upstairs, the landing leads to a spacious en-suite master bedroom, three further well-proportioned bedrooms and a main bathroom, while a carport and additional parking can be found outside.

The new homes at Strawberry Fields enjoy a peaceful cul-de-sac location on the edge of Locks Heath, on a site formerly used for strawberry growing, a key industry in the area in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

The new homes are nestled between an established residential area and fields leading down to the banks of the tidal River Hamble, with its pretty marinas and tranquil shoreline walk along to Southampton Water.

Within walking distance is the Lockswood Centre, with a host of amenities for day-to-day living, including shops, a library, a medical centre and a community centre, while the charming village of Warsash is also close by.

Families will appreciate there’s a good choice of schools for children of all ages within easy reach of Strawberry Fields. Locks Heath Infant and Junior Schools are both a short walk away and were both rated ‘outstanding’ at their most recent inspections by Ofsted, while Brookfield Community School for secondary age pupils is ‘good’ and lies right on the doorstep.

For commuters, the M27 is just a short drive away, for quick links into Southampton and the M3 for further afield, while nearby Swanwick railway station provides direct services to Southampton, Portsmouth Harbour and London Victoria.

To find out more about the new homes at Strawberry Fields, property-seekers can visit the Sales Information Centre, located in Peters Road, Locks Heath, Southampton, and open 1pm until 5pm on Mondays and 10am to 5pm, Tuesday to Sunday.
