3 bedroom link detached house for sale

A delightful Grade II listed city townhouse, located in an enviable position from the City centre. Requiring significant and extensive remedial work. Offered with No Forward Chain.

Description

This wonderful Grade II listed Regency townhouse presents a rare and exciting opportunity for those with a passion for historic properties and a vision for restoration. While the property does require a full renovation, including some structural remedial works, the potential it offers is unparalleled. The charm and character of its period features – from the elegant sash windows to the original fireplaces and high ceilings – are waiting to be brought back to life.

This is a true blank canvas, offering the perfect chance to create a bespoke, timeless interior that reflects your personal taste, while maintaining the integrity and beauty of its Regency roots. Whether you envision a contemporary take on classic design, or wish to embrace the grandeur of the period in its entirety, this home provides the space and scope to craft something truly unique.

There is also the opportunity (subject to the usual consents) to reimagine the layout and flow of the home, with the spacious accommodation spread over two floors and a good-sized cellar. The welcoming entrance hall, with its airy feel, is the ideal starting point for designing an interior that combines modern comfort with historic charm. While the renovation journey may be significant, the end result promises to be a spectacular home full of character, history, and your personal touch. This is not just a property – it's a project, and for the right person, a truly wonderful opportunity to create something special from the ground up.

OUTSIDE
The plot enjoys a slightly elevated position, with a secure boundary to all sides. The front garden offers a sunny paved terrace, with a Southerly aspect, ideal for entertaining beneath the attractive canopy; quite simply an extension of the existing internal living space via the French doors. The rear garden is conveniently accessed from the side entrance or via the rear utility room.

The garden itself has a beautiful mature Magnolia tree, and is enclosed by a traditional Winchester brick and flint wall. The property has on street permit parking. There is further potential to extend the existing living space into the available side return (subject to the usual consents).

Location

The house is tucked away along this quiet road within the heart of the desirable residential area of St Cross which lies to the south of the city within a Conservation Area. The property is situated a short distance from all the amenities of the Cathedral City, including a range of shopping, cultural and other recreational facilities, together with an excellent range of schools for all ages, both private and public, and with good access to the mainline railway station providing a direct route into London Waterloo in approximately 60 minutes. There are delightful walks within the area through the Cathedral Close and along the banks of the River Itchen and up to St Catherine's Hill.

Access can be easily gained to the M3 motorway at Junction 11, the M3 in turn provides good connections to the A34 heading north and to the south with the connecting M27 coastal motorway. The nearby International Southampton Airport provides good links to the wider global aviation network.
