Description

This charming 3-bedroom detached Victorian home presents a rare opportunity for renovation enthusiasts and investors alike. Spanning over 979 square feet and arranged over two floors, the property is ripe for transformation. While it requires complete modernization throughout, it boasts significant potential for extending to the rear and possibly into the loft space, subject to the necessary permissions. Upon entering, you're greeted by an entrance hallway that leads to a living room, dining room, kitchen, bathroom, WC, and three bedrooms. The layout offers flexibility for reconfiguration to suit modern living needs. The good-sized rear garden is complemented by two timber storage sheds and features a convenient side passage that provides access back onto Sedgwick Street. Situated in the desirable Romsey area, this home is conveniently located near Mill Road, renowned for its vibrant array of independent shops and cafes. The city center is just a little over a mile away, while the railway station is approximately 0.6 miles from your doorstep. Additionally, Addenbrooke's Hospital biomedical campus lies less than 2 miles away, increasing the property's appeal for professionals working in health care or academia. Importantly, this property is being sold with no onward chain and is available to cash buyers only—ideal for those ready to take on a project with promising potential in a sought-after location. Parking on the street is readily available without a permit requirement, further enhancing its attractiveness as both a family home and an investment opportunity.
