Many students dream of the perfect pad after they leave their halls of residence but that dream is reality for one University of Winchester student who has just moved into Barratt’s Highcroft development.

Sam McCarthy-Primett’s parents Sheila and Neil had always been interested in the idea of buying a property for Sam to live in for the final two years of his Sports Journalism degree with longer term investment opportunities, and Barratt’s Highcroft fitted the bill.

“We had been looking at older properties in the city, even two bedroom houses but we like modern homes and spotted Highcroft when we were visiting from our home in Nuffield near Henley-on-Thames,” said Neil. “The apartment suits Sam perfectly and I’m sure will be a great place to concentrate on his studies over the next couple of years.”

The development is a fantastic choice for parents looking for a sound investment to bring rewards from owning property in this desirable city for many years to come.

Barratt senior sales manager Zak Long said: “Highcroft is a great choice for stylish homes parents can invest in, not only is it close to the city’s university but with London only an hour away by train it has so much potential for the future.

Highcroft is located near to a green expanse of wooded countryside, just minutes from the train station and has been specially designed to complement the surrounding area.

With an excellent location in a leafy and sought-after area in the west of Winchester, the development lies close to wooded countryside but there are numerous amenities and leisure facilities close by, including bars and restaurants.

The development is perfect for commuters, with a direct service to London Waterloo in just 58 minutes. The M3 and M27 offer excellent transport links to Basingstoke, Southampton, the New Forest and Dorset.

For further information on Highcroft, please visit or call the sales office on Romsey Road, open from 11am to 6pm daily.
