Description

This semi-detached residence presents a prime opportunity for renovation and investment, located conveniently in Southampton's Mayfield Road. With no onward chain, the property currently comprises a lounge/diner, separate kitchen, lean-to structure, two upstairs bedrooms, and a partially converted garage. Its layout offers ample scope for enhancements that could significantly increase its value, subject to securing appropriate planning permissions. The ground floor features an entrance hall leading to a well-proportioned lounge with front aspect views. The central kitchen includes various eye-level and base units and provides access to the lean-to which, while functional, could benefit from modernization. Upstairs are two sizable bedrooms; the master is particularly spacious and may offer potential to revert back into two rooms given its original design. The existing garage has partial conversion work done but lacks compliance with building regulations and proper planning approval. It includes some plumbing facilities and a kitchenette area alongside a living space, warranting consideration for completion or reconfiguration as part of your renovation plans. Externally, the property benefits from driveway parking and a block-paved rear garden featuring a small wooden outbuilding used as a summer house. This home offers solid living space connected by reputable transport links and proximity to local conveniences such as shops and parks. Given the robust rental demand from nearby university staff and students, this property stands out as an appealing prospect for investors looking to secure long-term returns.
