Description

This 1930s detached house presents a valuable opportunity for those looking to undertake renovations and customize a home to their personal preference. Situated in the sought-after Maybush area, this property benefits from its proximity to Shirley’s bustling high street, essential transport links via the M3 and M27, as well as local schooling and healthcare facilities. The flexible layout includes two ground floor rooms that currently serve as bedrooms equipped with shower cubicles, but have the potential to be transformed into a spacious sitting room and dining area upon refurbishment. At the rear, you will find a kitchen leading into a lean-to with an additional WC and shower. The first floor comprises two double bedrooms alongside a kitchen that could easily revert back to its intended use as a third bedroom, plus a bathroom. Set on a generous plot with gardens front, side, and back, there is also access to a detached workshop/garage through a dropped kerb. This property offers ample room for enhancement, allowing prospective buyers to invest in upgrades that can significantly increase value in this thriving community.
