Charters are delighted to bring to the market this stunning four bedroom detached home enviably positioned within one of the most desirable roads in the Upper Shirley district of the city.

Locally you are well served for access to the city centre, central railway station, The General Hospital, the university campus, many excellent educational facilities and the circa 300 acres of open space on offer at Southampton Common.

In 'turn key' condition the accommodation on the ground floor comprises a welcoming entrance hallway with stairs rising to the first floor and internal doors providing access to the handy cloakroom, the cosy sitting room to the front of the house with feature bay window, ornate fireplace and stripped wooden floor boards, the sleek and stylish open plan kitchen/dining and family room which provides a wonderful space for entertaining family and friends and boasts many integral appliances. There is also a generously sized conservatory which overlooks the rear garden and the added bonus of a useful utility room.

The first-floor landing provides access to the loft space which has the potential to convert subject to the relevant permissions and internal doors leading to the four well-proportioned bedrooms with the principal bedroom benefitting from a stylish en-suite shower room, and the three further bedrooms are served by the family bathroom.

Outside, there is ample driveway parking as well as the garage which provides useful additional storage or could perhaps make for the ideal work from home office or home gym. To the rear there is a generously sized garden offering a high degree of privacy and provides a wonderful space to enjoy the sunshine during the summer months.

Upper Shirley is a popular residential area with Hill Lane on its eastern boundary bordering The Common and Winchester Road on its western boundary leading to St James Park, both of which provide excellent recreational facilities and acres of green open space. Comprising predominantly 1930's characterful traditional houses, the area offers all styles of properties to suit every purchaser ranging from terraced and semi-detached houses to substantial detached family homes. It is also home to some of Southampton’s finest eateries, pubs and schooling in both the state and private sectors as well as sixth form colleges. A variety of local shops are found within the vicinity and the city centre includes the West Quay shopping mall with numerous restaurants and the Cinema de Lux. Access points to the M3 and M27 motorways are found at the end of Bassett Avenue and Stoneham Way while the Parkway railway station is found at junction five of the M27 (opposite the international airport) and provides a fast and convenient route to London Waterloo. A variety of schools for all ages are found nearby, including the well-regarded independent King Edward VI School.
