Live the penthouse life in Southampton

Live the penthouse life in Southampton Take a trip to the top of the property ladder with a penthouse apartment at Barratt’s iconic Oceana Boulevard in Southampton. The penthouse apartment has glamorous associations as well as being a symbol of wealth and social sophistication. The penthouse, in residential terms, is as high as a property purchaser can go.

Aspirational high-rise living has arrived in Southampton with the Platinum Penthouse Collection at Oceana Boulevard, the award winning developer’s attention-grabbing city centre development.

An elevator whisks residents up to the heavens – the top floors – where spacious luxuriously-fitted penthouse apartments with breathtaking sea and city views form the exclusive, modern collection.

The stylish penthouse apartments are on the top levels of high-rise Oceana Boulevard, the tallest at 12 storeys, each features two en suite bedrooms, large living room, kitchen, cloakroom, and large balconies and terraces.

The apartments also boast top of the range fixtures and fittings, including luxurious fitted kitchens with ceramic tiled floors, granite worktops and superior appliances including American style fridge/freezers. High tech features include air conditioning and video door entry system – there is also use of an exclusive gym at the development.

“The views are truly amazing from the top floor properties which take in Southampton’s bustling waterfront, The Solent and the Isle of Wight yet also look towards the heart of the city over urban rooftops. There is always something different to look at,” said Martine Wilson, Barratt sales manager.

“The location is convenient, with many restaurants, a casino and cinema; great high street shops and department stores close by. Southampton also has one of the UK's biggest marina developments and its own annual boat show.

“It also has easy access to mainline railway and bus stations and motorway links to London or the south west,” added Martine.

The south coast city offers an easy commute to London yet is in the midst of numerous leisure pursuits and a stone’s throw from the Solent and the excellent sailing it offers. The city is also close to surfing at the new reef in nearby Boscombe and horseriding or cycling in the New Forest.

Martine said that the penthouse apartments are more accessible than many people think, as they are priced from £499,995 up to the deluxe 12th floor apartment at £999,999. The Platinum Collection is already attracting widespread interest locally, nationally and internationally.

Barratt is offering some suites in the Platinum Collection fully furnished and selected plots are currently offered with one hundred per cent part exchange or a £20,000 discount.
