Location:Homemead House is discreetly positioned along Middlebridge Street, a historic road where you will find some of Romsey's oldest homes. A short walk away is the town centre which has a strong sense of community and history - the centrepiece of which is the magnificent Norman Abbey - complemented by an array of coffee houses, tea rooms, bars and restaurants along with a Waitrose superstore and an eclectic mix of boutique style shops, independent retailers and familiar High Street brands.
Bus and train stations provide direct links to Winchester, Salisbury and Southampton, whilst the nearby M3/M27 provides onward access to London and the south coast.
The apartment itself has been updated in the last few years and features a modern fitted kitchen, double-glazed windows, electric heating and a refitted bathroom.
