This elegant apartment, designed by renowned architect Herbert Collins, is set within Glebe Court, a peaceful and highly sought-after location in the heart of Highfield. Herbert Collins played a pivotal role in shaping Southampton’s suburban landscape during the early 20th century. Celebrated for his thoughtfully planned residential estates, his designs emphasised space, greenery, and a strong sense of community. His Southampton developments are characterised by wide roads, generous gardens, and attractive Arts and Crafts–influenced architecture, offering a welcome contrast to denser urban housing.

Accessed on the first floor, the apartment opens into a spacious central hallway providing access to all principal rooms.

The fitted kitchen offers a range of wall and base units with wood-effect work surfaces, complemented by a ceramic sink with mixer tap and a selection of integrated appliances. Completing the accommodation is the family bathroom, which is fitted with a three-piece suite comprising a panelled shower bath, low-level WC, and wash hand basin with storage around. Additional benefits include gas central heating, double glazing, and ample residents’ parking.
