Highfield is one of Southampton's most desirable areas and Highfield Lane is within catchment for Highfield School and a short walk (via an underpass) from Southampton Common and its 300 acres of attractive parkland. More comprehensive amenities are available in Southampton's cosmopolitan City Centre, notably the Westquay Shopping Mall. Southampton University is also easily accessible as is the small private tennis club in nearby Abbotts Way.
Highfield is also well placed for transport links including buses into the City Centre, trains to London (Southampton Central is less than 3 miles away) and the M3 and M27 motorways. The many shopping facilities in Portswood are a short walk away and include Waitrose and Sainsbury's.
