Beechwood Heights. Opening doors to luxury and tranquility
Beechwood Heights introduces contemporary luxury and traditional elegance to the Hampshire village of Beech. A stunning collection of just five, individually designed, detached five bedroom homes complemented by their breathtaking surroundings. An unrivalled focus on quality. A unique place to call home.
All you’ve dreamed of in a country lifestyle you’ll find at Beechwood Heights. Charmingly set within the highly sought-after village of Beech, these exclusive homes combine Banner Homes’ award-winning focus on the finest details with a carefully chosen, secluded location.
Rolling fields and attractive woodland surrounds the village for as far as the eye can see. Nestled within a narrow valley, Beech also sits on the northern borders of the forthcoming South Downs National Park, a fitting recognition for this area of outstanding natural beauty. You could not wish for a more peaceful and picturesque base to relax and enjoy the very best, both in and around your home.
Beech itself has a distinctive rural character all of its own. This really is a premier address – perfectly illustrated by the select, elegant and opulent properties that form the village. Beech is home to Alton Abbey, an Anglican Benedictine monastery dating back to the Victorian era. An unexpected addition to a prestigious Hampshire village perhaps, but it’s no surprise that the area’s unique tranquility and sanctuary is so treasured. In fact, novelist Jane Austen spent time living and writing in the neighbouring village of Chawton and her house, now a museum, can be visited today.
Though rural in nature, enjoying some of Hampshire’s best attractions from Beechwood Heights poses no problem. The market town of Alton lies within two miles to the east and features all the day-to-day amenities you’ll need. A variety of shops and supermarkets, an appealing range of pubs and restaurants, and a popular leisure centre can all be found a convenient distance from Beechwood Heights.
Nearby Basingstoke and Winchester are within easy reach too, and offer a wider choice of leisure attractions. Winchester itself has a number of renowned theatres as well as many highly regarded restaurants and bars in the shadow of its famous cathedral. It is also home to one of the oldest golf clubs in England – The Royal Winchester – just one of many challenging courses hidden within the beautiful countryside. Educational facilities in the area are excellent and there are a number of renowned state or independent schools to choose from, including St Mary’s Bentworth C of E Primary School, Amery Hill Secondary School, Alton Convent and Lord Wandsworth College to name a few.
As well as being a destination for shopping and entertainment, Alton is an important commuter hub. The terminus of a rapid mainline route to London Waterloo, regular trains can whisk you to the capital in around an hour – with a seat almost always guaranteed being a distinct advantage. What’s more, easy access to the A31, M3 and A3 means car journeys to London, the south coast or to link with the M25 become a breeze. There’s so much to discover at Beechwood Heights. Unprecedented new levels of luxury and tranquility are just the beginning.
