Boom-time in Eastleigh for Barratt

Barratt is building on its success in Eastleigh with the opening of another stunning new development in the town.

The Axis sales office is now open and prospective buyers will be able to take advantage of a number of special offers, including Stamp Duty paid. And with 50% of the first phase sold in the first two weekends of opening, the demand is high.

“We are delighted that buyer demand in Eastleigh enables us to continue to provide excellent new housing in the area,” said Chris Judd, Barratt sales manager.

“We expect Axis to be just as popular as Twyford Square, our current Eastleigh development, and Park 21, Barratt’s previous site in the town, where properties were snapped up and are now sold out.

“Axis is already attracting interest from first-time buyers and investors and there is something for everyone here,” Chris added.

Located off Wide Lane just outside the town centre, Axis will offer 200 new homes – a mix of two-bedroom apartments and three and four-bedroom houses built around a large park. Many of the properties will boast stunning rural views over Lakeside Country Park – 60 acres of lakes, meadow and woodland.

Axis is close to Eastleigh train station and the motorway network, offering easy access to Southampton, Winchester and Basingstoke.

Barratt’s Twyford Square development is located nearby, just off the Twyford Road and conveniently close to both the town centre and the M3. This development of 161 homes offers spacious one and two-bedroom apartments. These include a striking penthouse which comes with an open plan kitchen, large lounge, two bedrooms and a roof terrace.

“Because developments in Eastleigh have proved so popular, Barratt has introduced a loyalty bonus scheme for people who bought at a previous Barratt development and who are now looking to move to another one,” Chris continued.

“Repeat Barratt buyers will receive a discount of £500 for every £25,000 of the new house price, up to a maximum of £5,000 off the asking price.

“We also operate a ‘Recommend a friend’ offer, which gives £1,000 cash to any Barratt purchaser whose friend buys a Barratt property.”

Eastleigh town centre has high street shops and the Swan Shopping Centre. A short drive, rail or bus ride will take you into Southampton city centre, which boasts the West Quay Shopping Centre as well as Leisure World with cinemas and night-clubs. Southampton Airport is also close by, providing easy access to domestic and European destinations.

Prices at Axis range from £199,950 to £389,995. Call the sales office on 02380 653647 for current availability. The apartments at Twyford Square are priced between £175,995 and £191,995. For details log onto Barratthomes.co.uk.
