4 bedroom detached house for sale

Offered to the market for the first time in over forty years is this charming, characterful and well-proportioned detached home enviably positioned upon a popular road in the much-requested Upper Shirley district of the city. Locally, you are well served for access to the city centre, the central railway station, The General Hospital, the university and many other excellent educational facilities and the vast open spaces on offer at Southampton Common, making it the ideal setting for the whole family.

The home is the perfect property for those looking to individualise and stamp your style throughout, as the house would benefit from some modernisation works throughout.

The accommodation on the ground floor comprises a welcoming entrance hallway with stairs rising to the first floor and through to three good-sized reception rooms, the first of two bathrooms and a spacious kitchen with a utility area.

Upstairs, the first-floor landing provides access to the loft space, which subject to the relevant permissions could be converted, and to four generously sized double bedrooms and a further room which could make for a work from home office, dressing room or perhaps be made into an en-suite shower room. All the bedrooms are served by the second family bathroom and a separate WC.

Externally, the property enjoys a low maintenance wrap around garden and an area suitable for parking, accessed via gated access as well as a detached workshop / garage. The property further benefits from being offered for sale with no forward chain.
