Preston Road

Extremely rare for a Shared Ownership scheme, the development will be a mixture of new build and refurbishment, with the impressive refurbished Victorian villas housing 14 apartments and six new 3 bedroom family houses being constructed in the back gardens of the existing villas. Two existing Victorian villas are completely refurbished to their former glory, a new apartment block built, and new family houses designed to complement the existing villas. Designed by leading architects Yelo, Preston Road offers the highest quality of design and build for first time buyers. Set within the Preston Park conservation area, Southern Home Ownership have ensured a sensitive restoration of the villas, retaining many of the original period features. Large sash windows, the majestic staircase and ornate balustrades have been carefully treated by an expert restoration team, while the poorly conceived link block built by the council in the 1950s has been removed and replaced with a contemporary brick building, designed to complement the Victorian architecture of the original villas. Highly Commended Award for ‘Best Small Development’ at the 2020 First time buyers Awards. Prices from £108,500*
